THE HISTORY OF "SUMMER LOVE"
 
On August 8, 2003, The 1st annual "Summer Love" Party was held at San Francisco's biggest, most famous nightclub Ruby Skye with legendary club promoters Martel & Nabiel in celebration of Donovan's SUMMER LOVE 1 CD Release. The purpose of this special theme event was to celebrate the child in all of us. It was to evoke the fun, playful, free-spirited energy of being a kid again during the summertime. It was a night to indulge all of your senses with the joyous sounds, sights, smells, and tastes of summer. Ruby Skye will be magically transformed into a tropical flower garden w/ breathtaking ocean scenes and sunsets projected overheard. Ruby Skye laid down huge sods of grass covering the entire inside floor of the nightclub where one felt like they were truly walking outside on a nice lawn of grass with summer patio furniture to relax on. Fresh summer fruits were served. Patrons were encouraged to get into the summer spirit by wearing their most colorful, fashionable summer attire. Soothing, soulful, sun-kissed house beats were played by DJ Donovan and his two closest DJ friends Dimitris Mykonos and Frenchy Le Freak that brought a smile to people's faces and had the floor dancing in a state of summer bliss... The enormous success of this first SUMMER LOVE party catapulted DJ Donovan's, Dimitris Mykonos', and Frenchy le Freak's DJ careers w monthly residencies at Ruby Skye and DJ bookings throughout the Bay Area.

IN LOVING MEMORY OF
DJ DIMITRIS MYKONOS R.I.P
THIS ONE'S FOR YOU BROTHER...



Donovan wishes to dedicate his "SUMMER LOVE: ETERNAL" Party at Hawthorn Nightclub on September 24, 2022 to one of his dearest friends and DJ brothers the world lost in 2020.  Dimitris suffered from a progressive degenerative neurological disease and cerebral vascular disease which led to complete paralysis. He died peacefully in his sleep.  Dimitris & Donovan came up the San Francisco DJ ranks together and it was Donovan's first annual "SUMMER LOVE" party at Ruby Skye back in 2003 where they proved to Ruby Skye and all other nightclubs & party promoters that a bunch of new, hungry, local, no-name DJs getting paid only $300 each could sell out Ruby Skye like Paul Oakenfold did at that time. Needless to say, the rest was history...

"I met Dimitris at Ten15 Folsom at my first professional DJ gig back in 2001. We played together and we immediately became very close friends. He was so welcoming, so kind and always genuinely excited to see you. He was one of those rare souls with that infectious positive energy that no matter how bad of a day you were having, he effortlessly put a smile on your face. Just thinking of him evokes that warm feeling his presence always brought. In my entire nightlife career, I don’t think I ever met a DJ more passionate about music and making people dance. When he was on stage performing, he exuded joy and such pleasure in the music he was sharing. He was always smiling, dancing, animated, and entertaining to watch. He knew how to get the dancefloor in a frenzy, with everyone’s hands up in the air and cheering. He was unabashed at being silly at times. He loved to spin records on his finger like it was a basketball. He would get on the mic and rap. He would even scratch records while playing a house track. He was fun. He was playful. He was full of life. He touched tens of thousands of people’s lives. He had a very loyal following. It’s a shame that there is no book on the “History of San Francisco Nightlife”, because there would definitely be a chapter dedicated about DJ Dimitris Mykonos.  I look foward to the day we play again brother." ~ DJ DONOVAN 

For those who also loved Dimitris Mykonos, his fans created a Facebook page to see & share their memories of this beautiful man & talented artist:
