Ending season 5 of the podcast is a guest that I have wanted to get on the show for such a long time, and we finally made it happen! Olivier started his career in marketing, working in senior roles at global consumer brands including, O2, Vueling and Lucky Strike. However, his passion for music, and a firm belief that it is a powerful way to connect brands with their audience, saw him place music at the core of the marketing strategy for those brands. From that point his career would connect more and more with the music industry, then creating his own agency, Ibiza Essentials, and later on providing senior consultancy to notable music brands, including Beatport and Brunch Electronik, advising on brand partnerships, sponsorship and international business development. 



Olivier is now the director of music partnerships at leading ticketing and event discovery platform, DICE. In this conversation we take a deep dive into his exciting career so far as well as how DICE is changing the game in ticketing whilst helping build artist’s fanbases and allowing music enthusiasts to discover more of the gigs that they’ll love.

Haitian-born, New York based DJ and produce, Francis Mercier is next up on the podcast! With over nearly 150 sold out shows last year, including shows that he’s always dreamt of such as Burning Man, Coachella, Tomorrowland and Space Miami as well as 11 releases, Francis is on fire right now and has no sign of slowing down. We chat all about his rapid growth to fame, growing up in Haiti, organising soccer games when he's on tour, how his sound has evolved, challenges he has come across and what’s next for the mastermind behind his record label, Deep Root Records.

This week I am joined by not one, but two incredibly talented artists, Jess Bays and MC DT. Known worldwide for his famous hook, 'We're loving it, loving it, loving it®' award-winning MC DT is one of the UK Garage scenes pioneers. Coinciding on past line ups with Jess Bays, who over the last few years has become one of the standout artists of recent times, we talk about how they have each cut through the noise in such a quick-paced industry. We also got a freestyle from DT!

It's always strange interviewing one of your best friends! But also the perfect excuse for a good catch up and a giggle on the sofa :)



Esther Chan is up next. Esther was PA to Jamie Jones for 7 years until recently transitioning into Artist and Production Coordinator for Paradise Ibiza. We talk all about working so closely with one of the biggest DJs in the world and all of the responsibilities that the job entailed, Paradise, Ibiza and lots of stories she's made along the way!

We're kicking off the year with a chat with one of the nicest guys in the game, Rossi. And what a pleasure it was to sit down with him and look back on his incredibly successful 2023, whilst getting to know more about his journey so far.

From being an actor, starring in London's Westend shows such as Mary Poppins (playing Michael Banks btw!) at the age of 8 to now playing some of the biggest festivals and clubs in the world, Ross' story is one of hard work, dedication and a lot of passion for what he does.

Glastonbury, Fabric all night long, becoming a Rinse FM resident, playing Joseph Capriati's legendary party at Bret during ADE and growing his brand, HOMEGROWN by Rossi., are just some of last year's highlights that we talk about in this episode, but with 2024 just getting started, I can't wait to see what the rest of this year holds for him because I think we all know it will be BIG.
