Quotes:

Frankie Wilde: I was thinking, you know Paul Newman's got his salad dressing and that? So why not Frankie Wilde Hummus?
Sonja: That's a really good idea, Frankie.
Frankie Wilde: People come see the gigs and they say, "That was a great set, Frankie," and I say, "Cheers, mate, want some hummus?"
Sonja: Yeah, good name for an album.
Frankie Wilde: How's that?
Sonja: Frankie Wilde - Hummus.
Frankie Wilde: What? Call my album Hummus? I don't think so.
Sonja: I've got good ideas, Frankie, you should listen to me.
Frankie Wilde: If I've got my own hummus brand and my album's called Hummus, it's all gettin' a bit much.
Sonja: No, I think it's a good name.

Crazy, Fascinating, Original, Drama, Humor, Fun and Good Dance Music!

Paul Kaye is the perfect type for this DJ-character in the Ibiza music & party scene. I'll keep it briefly. The film got lot's of aspects as my summary explains. A genius in his own right.

We saw the movie at the International Film Festival in Rotterdam (the Netherlands). It was a surprise movie at the last evening of this Festival. It really surprised us. Nighty minutes after the movie ended we were still laughing and talking about this unique movie. Something to remember: the alternative 'scarface' scene. It's the brain of Michael Dowse that we have to thank for such a film

Go see the movie and have fun! Even if you don't like house music.
