A pioneer and bona fide legend of the UK house music scene, Terry Farley has played an instrumental role in shaping British club culture since the mid-1980s. From his roots in London’s reggae, soul and jazz-funk scenes to the explosion of acid house, Terry has been at the heart of a musical movement that changed clubbing forever.
Terry joined Alan and Clara to look back on a remarkable journey that began with a lifelong passion for collecting records and dancing, before an unexpected move behind the decks led to a career spanning more than four decades. He recalls the early days of the warehouse party scene, becoming a resident at influential nights including Spectrum and Future.
Terry also tells the story of Boy’s Own, the influential fanzine he co-founded with Andrew Weatherall and others in 1986, which documented the emerging acid house scene and helped capture the spirit of a generation. What began as a small independent publication developed into parties and, eventually, the legendary Junior Boy’s Own record label, releasing underground house music and helping bring artists including Underworld and the Chemical Brothers to a wider audience.
The conversation turns to Ibiza and the island’s transformative influence on dance music. Terry shares memories of the unforgettable opening party at Amnesia in 1989, his early encounters with Balearic music and Alfredo’s eclectic approach, and how sounds he initially approached with some reservations came together in the unique atmosphere of the island.
Along the way, Terry reflects on the DJs who influenced him, including Junior Vasquez, Norman Jay and the late Alan Sullivan, the dance-floor traditions that connected Northern Soul with house music, and the London clubs and venues that have disappeared over the years. He also discusses the importance of underground culture, the evolution of the scene and the friendships that have endured throughout his career.

Jon Jules is the latest inductee into the Global Club & Dance Hall Of Fame. With a DJ career dating back to 1982, Jon has been at the heart of British club culture for more than four decades, from the jazz-funk and soul scene of the early 1980s to the emergence of house and acid house.
In conversation with Alan and Clara, Jon looks back on the music, clubs and people that shaped his journey. He recalls the early days of the jazz-funk scene, the transition into house music and his ten-year residency at London’s Hippodrome, alongside appearances at legendary venues including Camden Palace, Limelight, Club UK and BCM in Mallorca.
Jon also tells the story of his influential record shop Rayners Lane Record and Disco Centre, which became a meeting place for DJs, producers and industry figures. Through his record knowledge and connections, he helped champion emerging sounds, get records into the right hands and support the careers of luminarys such as Paul Oakenfold, Brandon Block, Terry Farley and Simon Dunmore. He reflects on the excitement of discovering new music at the very beginning of the house explosion, when a record such as Lil Louis 'French Kiss' could change everything.
Now a presenter on Mi-Soul Radio, Jon continues to share his passion for soul, disco, jazz-funk and house, while working on events and bringing generations of music lovers together. His ambition to keep DJing well into old age says everything about a career built on one enduring belief: music is a way of life.

As Musical Director and content manager at Ibiza Sonica Radio, Karlos Sense has spent two decades helping shape the island’s musical identity, championing underground electronic music and introducing listeners around the world to new sounds and artists.
Originally from Madrid, Karlos first came to Ibiza in the late 1990s, playing at a beachside restaurant before returning for seasonal work. In 2004, he made the island his permanent home and two years later, a chance connection led him to Ibiza Sonica Radio, where he has remained ever since.
In this conversation he discusses his three shows: Low Beats, exploring ambient, downtempo, Balearic, soul, funk and trip-hop; Supersónicos, showcasing international guests alongside local and resident talent; and Noisegarden, his personal platform for discovering adventurous, avant-garde and underground electronic music.
He also shares his approach to music discovery, spending hours searching record shops and digital platforms for unusual textures and sounds that listeners might not encounter elsewhere. For Karlos, radio is about educating and inspiring people, not simply playing familiar tracks.
Away from the music, Karlos shares some of his favourite corners of the island, from peaceful hidden beaches and natural landscapes to much-loved local restaurants. He reflects on the importance of Ibiza’s freedom, nature and sense of community, and why its magic goes far beyond the clubs.
Karlos Sense’s contribution to Ibiza’s radio and underground music culture makes him a worthy inductee into the Ibiza Hall Of Fame.

Andy Wilson is our latest inductee into the Ibiza Hall Of Fame. A DJ, broadcaster and one of the island’s key champions of Balearic music, Andy has spent decades shaping Ibiza’s musical identity, from the underground party scene to the radio airwaves.
Originally from Manchester, Andy was a teenage post-punker who had already recorded four John Peel Sessions and toured extensively with his band by the age of 18. After years of making mixtapes and collecting records, he began DJing in 1991, embarking on a journey that took him around the world, from Thailand’s free party scene to London’s legendary Sancho Panza warehouse and boat parties.
Andy first discovered Ibiza in 1989 and moved to the island permanently in 1999. He soon took over its English-language radio programme before helping launch Ibiza Global Radio in 2004. Two years later, he co-founded Ibiza Sonica, where he developed the station’s programming and produced shows for influential artists including José Padilla, Nightmares On Wax and Louie Vega. He also managed José Padilla, developing a close friendship with the legendary Balearic DJ.
In this conversation with Alan and Clara, Andy looks back on Ibiza’s changing club culture, the magic of Space and its iconic terrace, the DJs who influenced him, and the role radio has played in connecting the island’s international music community. 
Andy also gives his honest perspective on modern Ibiza: rising prices, shorter holidays and the pressure to plan every moment, alongside the importance of exploring beyond the headline venues and supporting the traditional restaurants and local businesses that give the island its character.
Still producing, programming and broadcasting, Andy curates Sonica’s Balearic Sound and Sonicalm channels and presents his popular weekly Balearia show. His DJ appearances include regular sessions at Café del Mar and Pikes, as well as The Apartment at UNVRS.
