Ibiza Knights is the brand new project written, sung and produced by DJ Fubar & Christian Davies and the first single with its uplifting lyrics and feel good vibe is unquestionably an anthem for the summer. Feels So Good To Be Alive sums up the feeling of the white isle, of shared experience, fun, love and everlasting memories.

With over 20 years experience in DJing, writing, producing, singing, events promotion, management and more DJ Fubar has been there, seen it, done it, rocked it and still continues to reek havoc on dancefloors worldwide with his insatiable appetite for pleasing crowds and entertaining.

Voted “1999 Coca Cola UK DJ of the Year” and having spun for Ministry Of Sound, Cream, Godskitchen, Miss Moneypenny’s, MTV, Judgement Sunday, Sundance at Pacha, Space, Es Paradis, Gatecrasher and the legendary BCM old Skool nights Fubar has a varied and extensive DJing career.

A far cry from his two-year stint with the navy where, he chuckles, “I did parties on the flight deck of the Ark Royal and I did parties in all the little clubs and bars of the ports we visited. And when I realised you could get paid for doing it I thought – I’ve got to get out of the navy and do this.”

Killer remixes courtesy of Head of Nukleuz Green, Pierre Pienaar (aka P.H.A.T.T.), Ministry of Sound DJ/Producers Bass Slammers, M-Jay, and Andy Whitby & Matt Lee (aka Gammer).
