ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
What happens when two burnt-out software salesmen invent a fake Ibiza client to escape miserable corporate life and blag themselves a work trip to the White Isle?
That’s the starting point for Ibiza Coastal Solutions, the brilliantly chaotic debut novel from tech entrepreneur, DJ and former music producer Alon Levin. What begins as a fairly innocent corporate scam soon spirals into Ibiza nightlife, some seriously questionable characters and a situation Alex and Peter definitely didn’t include in their sales forecast.
This week on The Reset Rebel, Jo Youle sits down with Alon to talk about turning Ibiza’s two worlds — postcard paradise and the slightly murkier side beneath it — into a darkly comic crime thriller, and how much of the corporate bullshit, club culture and island madness came from things he’s actually witnessed.
We also get into Alon’s rather unexpected journey from pioneering electronic music in Tel Aviv and producing “Diva,” the winning song of Eurovision 1998, to more than two decades in tech, including Meta — and why he’s now added novelist to the CV.
Corporate chaos, Ibiza excess, crime, comedy and some spectacularly bad decision-making.
