"Wooo, disco bus!"
The vehicle idling by the manicured white lobby of the SLS Beverly Hills Hotel is nothing special, but Hot Since 82 is easy to please.
Daley Padley is a rakish 30-something Brit wearing a white graphic tee and an unflagging smile that persists despite his present exhaustion. A rigorous tour schedule has seen Padley jet from London to Chicago to Los Angeles in as many days, with another cross-continental flight to New York looming tomorrow.
"I don't know what planet I'm on," he admits. "I don't know if I'm jetlagged or in England or what."
Joined by his manager James Drummond, we pile aboard the disco bus for the drive to San Bernardino, where Padley is set to play Insomniac's Escape from All Hallows' Eve on the ENTER-curated Cannibals' Tea Party stage. The traffic is typical L.A. gridlock, so we take solace in overpriced sandwiches and classic hip-hop while slowly inching our way through the bumper-to-bumper malaise. It's a far cry from the Yorkshire moors that Padley calls home.
"Could you ever live in L.A.?" I ask.
"I couldn't," Padley replies. "Even in Leeds you never get shit like this. Have you ever been to Yorkshire? It's the country, quiet and full of nature. I wouldn't live anywhere else in the U.K."
The topic of conversation turns to hip-hop. Padley is a massive 2Pac fan who plastered his childhood walls with posters of the California rapper after watching Juice. Wu-Tang Clan comes on to the delight of all in attendance.
"Now these guys can fucking rap!" Padley exclaims. "I like that 'Triumph' song, it's a proper story."

On the Road & Backstage With Rising British DJ Hot Since 82
The hotspot for sex, drugs and dance music is looking to go from 24-hour partying to 24-karat gold
Orlando Bloompunches Justin Bieberin a club. Leonardo DiCaprio lounges on his yacht. It is all part of summer time on the Spanish island of Ibiza, famous for its A-list celebrities, world-class DJs and jam-packed, all-night parties.
Celebrities have identified the clubbing mecca as a must stop on the international party circuit at least since the 1950s when Errol Flynn used to moor his yacht Zaca and come ashore with his entourage.
But something seems to have shifted lately, according to a BBC report earlier this month in which several DJs said Ibiza has become too expensive for young people.
Im playing in Ibiza this year, only because they pay well, Afrojack told the BBC. The whole magic you used to have on Ibiza is not possible anymore because a ticket is $100 (75). I go to Mykonos, play exactly the same thing and you buy a $13 (10) ticket. They are too focused on the VIP.
With competition for the title of party island coming from Greece and Croatia and Las Vegas comeback fueled by Electronic Dance Musicand Sin Citys ability to snag top talent, Ibiza is in the midst of rebranding itself from a destination for 24-hour partying to one offering a 24-karat gold experience.
Spains so-called White Island is aiming to lengthen its season and boost its identity as a luxury destination. Think a newly improved marina for yachters, fancier restaurants and five-star hotels the only new hotels allowed on the island since 2007.
There has been a huge investment in thematic hotels aimed at the upper-end of the price range, said the Ibiza governments tourism secretary Carmen Ferrer. Its not just about the hotels, but all they offer surrounding them restaurants, water sports, music and leisure. But I think what really distinguishes the luxury offer in Ibiza is the unique lifestyle the island allows.
The clear preference for the very VIPs this year was the Ibiza Gran Hotel, which boasts the islands only casino and is sandwiched between the legendary club Pachaand restaurant-cabaret Lio, next door to the marina and cocooned in lavishness.
We have noticed that the luxury consumers are growing faster and faster, and the world of luxury involves so many services, Ibiza Gran Hotel general managerRaul Sierra said.
