A video of a young man is circulating in the networks David Guetta at Space in 1996. The French dj and producer explains how was his first show on the island by the hand of Pepe Roselló at the now defunct discotheque, which this year has returned in the form of a party at Eden, in Sant Antoni.
David Guetta was only known in Parisbut Roselló liked his music and asked him to play in his establishment. Just the day of the show it was raining and the place was empty. Guetta confesses: “I went home crying”. But Pepe gave him another opportunity that the Frenchman knew how to take advantage of.
“In 1996 something incredible happened to me. I was not a famous dj. I was playing at Bataclan and the owner of Space, Pepe (Roselló) called me to see me. And he told me: “I like your music. You should play at Space”. It was really crazy, because until then nobody knew me. I was a famous dj in Paris but not worldwide. The year after I played my first session at Space. Quite funny, the day of the show it was raining. It was almost empty, so I came home crying. I was very sad, but he (Pepe Roselló) loved the music and said: “I want you to come another night” and this time, the weather was good and it was full”, says the artist.
Nowadays, his party on the island ‘F*** Me I’m Famous’ attracts thousands of people every summer to Ibiza and fills the dance halls. He is the number 1 DJ, according to DJ Magacine polls.
