Stealth Records presents a 5-episode series, focusing on Roger Sanchez's summer on the island of Ibiza.
Written & Directed by: Terry Church Camera/Edit: John Taws
Throughout this series, director Terry Church takes you behind the scenes of Roger's DJ life and his relationship with the White Isle. From Roger's residency at the island's superclub Space, to events for his record label Stealth, his studio sessions, and the characters around him, Inside Ibiza is a documentary that aims to get to the heart of DJ culture and Ibiza.
Terry goes into further details in his director's notes...
Episode 4 of Roger Sanchez' Inside Ibiza takes us back stage behind one of the world's most famous superclubs - Space in Ibiza.
The giant venue is a celebrated dance music institution. Indeed, the White Isle's clubbing season doesn't officially begin until Space opens its doors in May each year.
Episode 4 of Inside Ibiza gives viewers a rare behind-the-scenes glimpse into what it takes to make this huge, famous nightclub tick. Featuring interviews with the staff and promoters behind Space and Roger Sanchez' Release Yourself parties, the episode culminates in a DJ face off between Roger and Britain's Mark Knight, boss of Toolroom Records.
The party scenes in this episode are probably my favourite from the entire show. That night, the energy was electric with Mark Knight's big room techy house sound acting as a perfect counterpoint to Roger Sanchez' NYC-driven soul.
We were lucky to capture the moment when 2500 clubbers sung along to Toolroom's big hit of the summer - Mark Knight Vs. Florence & The Machine's 'You've Got The Love'. It was a proper hair-raising moment of dancefloor euphoria.
In the video, I decided to mix Mark Knight and Roger's sounds together as a DJ would, and the moment that we see Roger for the first time in the DJ booth we hear him say: "This is house". Mightily appropriate timing, I thought - the fact that both DJs that night were attempting to communicate their own brand of escapist house music.
