Hofer66 began DJing in the early 90s after living the true beginning of house music in Ibiza in 1987 with the performance of Adamski in Amnesia.
After this unique experience he started to buy records and play in clubs on the island and abroad. Today he is not only DJing, he became a producer as well, some first trax are already finished and he is currently busy in producing more...
He is as well the editor of dub magazine in Ibiza, so he is giving back the people what they gave to him - his spirit and love for this music.
He is booked all over the world without playing too much clubs in summer, as he is busy with the mag. But the few dates he chooses are well worth a visit! So look for his name on flyers and posters wherever you are, and get his unique mix of house in between deep, acid, electro, deep trance and techno, flavoured with this Balearic touch everybody is seeking for.
Last year he started doing a partyseries called SENSE - everything that makes sense (myspace.com/sense_ibiza) in one of the most authentic places in ibiza, the GRIAL, in order to create a perfect party. The secret behind the success of SENSE is the atmosphere, people come to listen and dance, no spectators, only actors! The guest DJs are mainly from Ibiza as there is a whole bunch of extraordinary talents, and the ones coming from outside are booked because of their musical skills, not their names. This politics is based on the concept 'less ego more music' (great idea, Giorgio!) as this is what its really about...
As this is not enough he has a very big passion for radio as he thinks it is still one of the most powerful tools to reach the crowd. He has an own show for dub magazine during the summermonths on ibizasonica and is invited to other stations all year long.
