“Chilling” – A Movie That Shows the Real Clubbing Vibes of Ibiza in the Early '90s

Kosovo Clubbing shares a cool throwback to a special movie called “Chilling”, which first aired on Christmas Day in 1990 on Channel 4 in the UK. 

This 30-minute documentary was one of the first to truly show what partying on Ibiza looked like during the late '80s and early '90s, in the time of the third “Summer of Love.”

The film was made with help from DJ and promoter Charlie Chester, and it reached over 13 million viewers when it aired on Boxing Day 1990! “Chilling” inspired and educated a whole new group of party lovers, DJs, and music producers.

The soundtrack is packed with amazing sounds like Balearic beat, acid house, early house, and chillout music. It takes us back to the real sound of Ibiza, with scenes from famous clubs like Ku (now Privilege), Amnesia, and Pacha. You can see people dancing outdoors, smiling, and losing themselves in the music.

But “Chilling” isn’t just about the music – it also shows the spirit of that time. Through interviews with DJs, promoters, and partygoers, we hear stories about freedom, love, togetherness, and the start of a culture that became a global phenomenon.

Back then, Ibiza was a magical place where music and spiritual energy mixed together, and “Chilling” captured that magic in its purest form.

For some people, this movie was the moment they fell in love with electronic music. For others, it’s a nostalgic reminder of the old days – when parties were more spontaneous and music mattered more than marketing.

Even though it’s not easy to find on official channels, “Chilling” still lives on among fans. You can often find it on YouTube or forums, and it’s still called a “must-watch” for anyone who wants to understand the roots of Ibiza’s dance music scene.
