Paul Oakenfold in Internet
| A year later in 1985 Paul traveled to the island of Ibiza for a week to celebrate his birthday.<br />Trevor Fung, Nicky Holloway, Ian Saint Paul, Danny Rampling and Johnny Walker accompanied him and it was during this time when playing at Amnesia that Paul demonstrated the balearic trance sound that he would later become known for.<br />The event marked his career as a producer as he convinced his owner to display an Ibiza Reunion party after-hours, he had previously made an attempt but it failed as the crowd was not prepared for the acid house style until 1987 when the party was successful, since then the night grew as a classic and was one of the UK’s major acid house nights which became known as Spectrum at Heaven in Charing Cross.<br />Spectrum became popular in The Sanctuary as a bigger space was required, it became into the Heaven club which was ran by Paul and his friend Ian.<br />The party was known for the Theatre of Madness as more than 1,500 people were present on Monday nights, until it went down; with the financial issues it changed its name to the Land of Oz.<br />Artists like Alex Paterson DJ'd in the VIP chillout area known as the White Room, which gave Paul more free time, and then he began producing music under the alias Electra in 1988 with his friend Steve Osborne.<br />In 1988 he decided to create a place where new artists could develop their careers, at that moment Perfecto Records was born.<br />In 1990, he worked with Terry Farley, Andrew Weatherall and Osborne on two remixes for The Happy Mondays, the remixes of Rave On and Hallelujah were released on the Madchester Rave On EP as well as Step On which is a covered version adapted from John Kongos' 1971 hit He's Gonna Step On You, the song reached the Top 5 position in the UK.<br />He was invited as a guest DJ to Spike Island, a gig from The Stone Roses and pleased with the last single, the Happy Monday's later gave Paul and Osborne the opportunity to produce their third studio album, Pills 'n' Thrills and Bellyaches.<br />The album entered the UK charts at #1 with pre-sales of 150,000, the album became NME's 1990 Album of The Year and both Paul and Osborne won the 1991 Brit Award for Best Producer.
