No money restrictions you say?
I would start out by buying a beautiful tropical island and build the ultimate partying facility in advance, including permanent bar staff that know how to make any concoction of drink, massive sound systems in the facility and along the beach ā which would obviously be crystal clear blue water, only the best kind! DJās and live music would be varied and different styles of music played on different parts of the island.
There would be plentiful amounts of alcohol, food (world class chefs), entertainment, and anything else one would want. How would we get there? On a private 2 day boat cruise, listening to ultimate summer beats in the impeccable weather, lazing around on lounges and having the time of our lives. Everyone would be welcome, and 2 cruisers would be bought if necessary.
Fuck yeah.

DANNY BONNICI BIO:Recently name checked as āone of the hottest names in dance musicā by DJ Mag, over the past 6 years Danny Bonnici has been at the forefront of the worldās dance music scene. Working with his band Nubreed to bring people the sound of now, Danny has amazed audiences with his raw stage presence and crowd-pleasing performances. Now as a solo artist heās truly coming into his own with I-DJ Mag, Ibiza Online and DJ Mag all signing praises for his world-class production/engineering & djāing. What we know as true, they know also know: Danny delivers the goods; with his own style of dirty 4/4. Dannyās collaborative efforts saw him co-produce the 2003 hit āRideā with friend Luke Chable, this tune was a huge hit in the scene giving Danny international recognition further to his efforts with Nubreed.
With his own release “Return to Saturn” featured on Luke Chableās 2006 Renaissance cd and its solid vinyl release to follow short after, such tight productions have seen Danny nominated for a Dance Music Award and an Aria Award in previous years. He has also done collaborations with producer renowned producer and engineer Andy Page – the result of which Vermouth appears on the Nubreed Y4K. With a string of original and remixed works under his belt Dannyās music is being played by the biggest Djs in the world including Sasha, John Digweed, Hernan Cattaneo and too many more to even mention. Danny Bonnici has been involved in releasing three mix compilations in 2006, all of which have been received with applause from the dance music press. The first with Nubreed for Distinctive Y4K saw them tour Australia nationally in support of the compilation. The second, for popular local label Stompās Electric Series saw King Unique take on one CD, whilst Danny (as part of Nubreed) took on the other. The third was a mix compilation with Luke Chable for new Australian label Hiddenform.
His love of production and engineering has meant heās quick on the uptake of new technology as Danny has become one of the first Australian DJās to exclusively use Ableton Live in his DJ sets and not just in the studio. Taking what heās learnt on the road back to the studio again, Danny is one of the only qualified Ableton Live teachers in the country. His recent endorsement agreement with the company in Australia means that Danny is one of 4 Australian producer/ DJs to be featured by the company as their preferred endorsee and Artist of choice to support. This year he has been devastating dance floors across the country from Sydney to Melbourne, Cairns & Perth and Asia, Europe and the USA. In fact, 2007 has been the year in which Danny has made leaps and bounds into new musical realms, along the way firmly establishing himself as a strong solo artist/engineer in his own right.
