Fantasy Island with Trevor Fung and resident Richard Norris

Fantasy Island reaches its final event as part of its Balearic inspired series with guest DJ Trevor Fung joining resident DJ Richard Norris on Friday 26^th March. 

Trevor Fung was there at the birth of acid house (you could even argue he was its midwife). An early devotee of Ibiza, he used to mentor Paul Oakenfold. It wasn’t until a visit in 1987 that he and Oakenfold began DJ’ing in a club on the Island, gradually making it a cosmopolitan hot spot for their Balearic style of mixing pop and indie-rock with house. In the late 80’s Fung would journey back to London for the huge one-off events. He continues to DJ at locations all over the world.

Richard Norris was the first journalist to write about the Balearic scene in the UK music press, when NME ran his article on Ibiza in the late eighties. He was also in The Grid, who released a string of hit dance singles including the million-selling ‘Swamp Thing’. Richard has DJ’ed in Ibiza at Manumission, Space, the Underground, Manumission Motel and the Rock Bar. He was a panellist at 2008 and 2009’s Ibiza International Music Conference, regularly DJs around Europe, and records with Erol Alkan as Beyond The Wizard’s Sleeve, and as a solo artist as The Time and Space Machine (Tirk Records). The Grid’s ‘Floatation’ - a Balearic classic - will soon be re-released on New State.
