Eoin has worked in the island\u2019s nightlife scene since 2008 and was part of the team behind Carl Cox\u2019s 15 year residency at the iconic Space club.<br \/>\nRobbin had a background in club ticket sales and after moving to Ibiza full time became more involved in some of the events Eoin was working in.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Having firmly established Wildchild in Ibiza\u2019s clubbing landscape, we have caught up exclusively with the guys to find out more, where it all began, to reveal how they have masterminded this unique &amp; exclusive event and see what the future holds as they partner with Bumpboxx UK for a series of 11 events across the summer at O Beach.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-419936 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/obi-cc.theloyaltyco.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/DSC01278-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Where it all began\u2026<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>How did you guys meet?\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I first met Dave Browning in 2008 having come out to Ibiza to find work for the season. Dave was the promoter of Carl Cox at Space which for me was the most iconic event on the island, fast forward 14 years and we\u2019re all still working together on all things Game Over. We first met Robbin around the time of Space closing. We became great friends over the past few years and on a wild trip to Miami in 2019, Robbin expressed his interest in moving to Ibiza full time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a8Over a crazy few days of event hopping we hatched a plan to create a new offering for the island and then boom\u2026 Wildchild was born. The rest, as they say, is history ;)\u00a8<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-419937 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/obi-cc.theloyaltyco.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/wildchild-blog-300x200.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/p>\n<p><b>What makes you unique as a team?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Having a passionate love for the music we want to shout about has always been our thing. That coupled with years of generational experience across the team both in terms of events and popular culture definitely helps. We\u2019re a small company but yet super agile and able to pivot on demand when the market moves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Working with Carl Cox\u2026<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>What was your favourite memory when working with Carl?<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Wow there\u2019s been so many! Carl absolutely rocks it every time he plays without fail. He has a way with people and mammoth crowds like no other. He really is the DJ\u2019s Dj. We\u2019re lucky to have been a core part of so much of what has gone on for Carl in Ibiza. I think the atmosphere we all experienced throughout the Space Closing party was unparalleled. Everything aligned that day and to know it was a major moment of clubbing history is something special.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-419941 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/obi-cc.theloyaltyco.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/CMRobinson-61-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><b>Wildchild Quickfire!\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Describe the event!<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A Wild Ride, Adults Running Riot, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">House Music Magic, Grooves With Attitude\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Describe the music!<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Stripped back swinging house<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Influences from the early days of hip hop, disco, new jack swing and<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">UK\/US Garage, remixed and redubbed into sleek and sultry modern masterpieces!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>The DJs!<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Our first phase of line up announcements includes many of our favourite DJs from across the globe including\u2026<\/span><b><br \/>\n<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Mo Funk,\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Niels Feijen,\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Sam Blans,\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Manda Moor,\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Chico Rose,\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">ABrothaNamedSherm,\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Vin Postega,\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Robin Fett,\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Djordin Sinay,\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">CiCi.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-419942 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/obi-cc.theloyaltyco.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/DSC01077-300x194.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"194\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">And we\u2019ll also be announcing more of our special guest headline names very very soon.

The team have really been some of the best innovators for the past decade in Ibiza, bringing parties back into the open air which is what it\u2019s all about when you\u2019re on holiday.
