Born in Copenhagen to British-German parents, Fiona Jane is renowned for her distinctive style and eclectic taste in music. Her ability to create immersive musical experiences has taken her from London’s vibrant nightlife to international music festivals, runway shows, and private events, cementing her status as a prominent figure in both the music and fashion industries.

Last summer, she held a residency with Xarraca Beats at Six Senses Ibiza and made her debut at Pacha, Playa Soleil, and Ibiza Global Radio. Fiona has also performed at iconic events such as the Amsterdam Dance Event, Burning Man, Wilderness Festival, and The Moment Festival in Copenhagen.

My personal style signifiers are as eclectic as my music, I dress based on my mood which is pretty groovy! 

The last thing I bought and loved were records from my local record shop Honest Jon’s Records in Notting Hill. 

And the thing I’m eyeing next is more records to expand my collection. I have a vinyl-only residency at the exclusive Chiltern Firehouse in London.

My style icons are I don’t really have one, but I’ve always loved the effortless cool of Jane Birkin and Keith Richards.

My work has taught me the value of resilience, creativity, and the power of meaningful connections. I’ve learned to adapt to different environments, trust my instincts, and appreciate how music can bring people together.

My work icon /mentor is/was  DJ Harvey and David Lynch. DJ Harvey inspires me with his boundary-pushing sets and timeless style, while David Lynch’s surreal storytelling and his Transcendental Meditation practice fuel my creativity and remind me to embrace the unexpected and find calm within chaos.

The carry-on essentials I’m never without are my USB’s and Sennheiser HD25 headphones. 

In Ibiza we need to be extra aware of balancing the island’s vibrant energy with its natural beauty and community.

My fave Ibiza beach is Cala Xuclar.

My secret spot is a secret for a reason, but Bar Anita is a little gem. 

My go-to party pal is someone who shares the same love for great music and good vibes.

The best place to dance in Ibiza is Freddie’s at Pikes Hotel, which I danced at every week throughout the whole Summer, and I'm dying to DJ there!

I couldn’t live without my positive and optimistic outlook on life. It’s been the driving force that’s helped me get through the hardest moments and keeps me moving forward.

My top Ibiza souvenir is a scarf from Vicente Ganesha shop in Ibiza town.

I’d take a lunch date to El Bigotes - they only serve one dish and I love the authentic vibe. 

If I could encourage people in Ibiza to do one thing it would be to embrace the island’s natural beauty especially in the North of the island. 

A recent island find is Can Luz, a beautiful space where art, sustainability, and wellness intersect. I had the pleasure of DJing at the opening event and the owner has since become a friend. 

My Ibiza life began when I first came to the island in 2013 with my ex-boyfriend. We stayed in a villa with all his ‘Circoloco DJ friends,’ which immersed me deeper into the electronic music scene. Back then, the parties were better and less crowded. Ibiza will always have a unique place in my heart as its been part of my musical journey.

If I’m not DJing I’m digging for music, making music, or curating an event. I love curating playlists for hotels and brands through my music agency MoonLight Creative, and hosting my party TRUE DAZE where supporting female talents have always been the heart of my projects.

My most memorable DJ set was playing on a container ship turned into an open-air nightclub, warming up for Jamie Jones and Martinez Brothers while sailing to Capri. Other moments include DJing alongside Virgil Abloh for a Gagosian Art Gallery party in London, performing on an art car at Burning Man in 2018, and playing for Madonna at Chiltern Firehouse.

My fave apps are Soundcloud, Shazam, The Pattern

The last Book I bought was DISCO (music, movies and mania Under the Mirror Ball) by Frank De Caro and Oriol Maspons Ibiza (IDEA).

If I wasn’t a DJ I’d have been an interior or fashion designer. Creativity has always been at the core of who I am.

Ibiza in three words is magical, free spirit and naughty
