    Lisa Nash "I told Pete Tong he was burnt like a lobster"

    Lisa Nash joins the Global Club & Dance Hall Of Fame to talk about an extraordinary career at the heart of club culture - from her early love of music and Ibiza to becoming one of the familiar faces of ClubaVision. Lisa recalls discovering Ibiza as a teenager and the moment she walked into Es Paradis and saw Rozalla performing. The experience left such an impression that she knew she would be back - and that music and clubs would become a major part of her life. She talks about the creation of ClubaVision, which began as a video project before moving onto ITV, and what it was like being paid to travel around the UK and Ibiza, interview superstar DJs and report from the biggest clubs and parties of the era. Lisa also reveals how Carl Cox helped her learn one of the most important lessons of interviewing: “Just say whatever comes into your head.” What began as nerves and carefully rehearsed questions became a career built around her genuine love of talking to people and discovering their stories. There are plenty of Ibiza memories along the way - from filming with the likes of Pete Tong, visiting Pacha, Pikes and the hippie markets, to recreating the famous ClubaVision Ibiza tour and remembering the days when there were no mobile phones, no social media and celebrities could simply enjoy themselves alongside everyone else. Lisa also talks about some of the DJs and artists who have stayed with her throughout the years, including Jeremy Healy, Lisa Loud, Carl Cox, Masters at Work and Roy Ayers, as well as some of the unforgettable characters and stories from Ibiza’s golden era. Now back filming and working in the music and events world, Lisa reflects on reconnecting with the people and music she grew up around — and why the love of dance music never really goes away.

    Gordon Mac MBE "I was the weird white kid into James Brown and The Fatback Band"

    Gordon Mac MBE joins the Global Club & Dance Hall Of Fame to tell the story of a remarkable life in music — from falling in love with radio and DJing as a teenager to co-founding Kiss FM in 1985, when it was a South London pirate station championing underground music. He recalls the extraordinary rise of Kiss, taking the station from pirate radio to becoming a legal 24-hour dance station, the DJs and the explosion of house, soul, reggae, hip-hop and dance music that transformed British club culture. Gordon also reveals why he returned to radio years after leaving Kiss - launching Mi-Soul Radio after realising there was a generation of Kiss listeners who had grown up but still wanted the music they loved. He explains how he tracked down many of the DJs who had been pushed out of mainstream radio and brought them together again.His philosophy has remained the same: radio should give great DJs a platform. As Gordon puts it, “I didn't create these DJs I just gave them a platform.” He also talks about his deep connection with Ibiza, from his first visit in the 1980s and early Kiss Ibiza parties to three different chapters on the island, his love of its music and escapism, and the people and places that have stayed with him. A fascinating conversation with one of the key figures behind the evolution of British radio and dance music - and a man who, decades later, is still spreading the music he loves.“It’s always been about the music.” Filmed at Ministry Of Sound, London SE1 Presented by Alan Warman and Clara Griffin.
