Limerick DJ Richard Lowe was at the gig in Shine Ibiza in September.

“My set at Shine on September 3rd was well received. I was the opening act on the night starting at midnight for an hr and a half set. In the space of 30 minutes, the club was almost full to capacity and there was such a happy relaxed vibe on the floor. My set was very old skool as I played a lot of remixes from big hits back in the day as well as all my own material which I had prepared for the event .”

The Shine Ibiza was an impressive performing experience for Richard, with the high passion of fans and the high atmosphere.

“The thing that impressed me about the gig in Ibiza is that everybody came to Shine were trance music fans and were so into the music and were just such a warm inviting crowd and were a pleasure to play for. The night was amazing with DJs Andy Moor (UK), Lange (UK), Ian Standerwick (UK) and Paul Van Dyk,” said Richard.

”To have people come up to you and thanking you for a great set and playing music that they remember from back in the old days was just so surreal and very humbling .” he continued.
