Menno de Jong - Intuition Podcast 012 - Menno Solo Warmup

Menno — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 20:17:49 +0000

I recently returned from a month long tour through Asia and Australia. One of the destinations was South Korea, where I had the opportunity to see one or two cool things around Seoul. The pictures in the enhanced podcast were taken during my brief time there. Other than that, another 2 hour set full of new tuneage to warm up for my 8 hour set at Westerunie in Amsterdam this weekend (Saturday the 8th of November 2008)! For more info check the news item on my website.

Love, Menno

Down at the pub with Menno de Jong

Menno — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 17:27:24 +0000

Recently Menno had the pleasure of being interviewed by the mother ship of all Trance sites: Trance.nu. DJ Mag’s very own Tim Stark fired a series of rather interesting questions at Menno to get an idea of what he is like ‘behind the scenes’. You’re catching our drift indeed, this is not the usual interview and probably a good laugh to read! Here are a couple of teaser questions from the interview:

“Wakarimasu! What languages do you speak Mr De Jong?

Dutch, English, German and a bit of Spanish. Twee beers bitte, pronto!

Obviously being a Dutchy I know Dutch - most of us here know English too, but I picked it up in International schools as we lived abroad for a while, when I was a kid, and thus grew up bilingual. I learned how to speak German when we lived in Berlin for 4 years. The bit of Spanish I know I learned in High School and University.”

“What is the best bit of non-musical gadgetry you own?

I have this implement that you can use to scratch your own back. Doesn’t it feel great to finally reach that spot right in the middle? Uhhhhh, Urrrgh, ahhhhhhhh!”

Menno Solo - Westerunie, Amsterdam

Menno — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 15:36:03 +0000

On Saturday the 8th of November 2008 Menno de Jong will present his first true solo appearance. In the Westerunie in Amsterdam the night will be guided by the sound of Menno de Jong, a truly spectacular event with an extended DJ set.

Menno is approaching his 10th year as a trance DJ, which has lead to many beautiful things. He once started out in local small venues but can now be found on key festivals such as Mysteryland, Trance Energy, Electric Daisy Carnival, Sunrise Festival, Love Parade, Nature One and Mayday. His productions are regularly played in the sets and radio shows of internationally renowned DJs such as Armin van Buuren, Tiësto, Paul Van Dyk, Ferry Corsten and many others. In the past years Menno has developed a solid fan base that regularly attend his performances at clubs and festivals. His gigs in every corner of the world have resulted in a 62nd position in the DJ Mag Top 100 of 2007, and a 10th position in the TranceAddict Top 250 of that year.

Intuition Recordings has in the meantime developed into one of the key Trance & Progressive labels in the scene, and has helped Menno propel into the top of the DJ elite. The events department has organized concepts such as the Intuition Winter and Summer Festival and Intuition Invites, with high-profile guests such as Markus Schulz and Above & Beyond.
Menno’s Intuition Podcast has also created havoc in the music scene. Multiple ten thousands of listeners tune in through his website, iTunes, SlamFM, XM Radio (USA) and ETN.fm to enjoy his sublime mixing and track selection. The Podcast enjoys a firm presence in the iTunes top music podcasts and is downloaded from Trinidad to Tokyo.

Plenty of reasons for Menno to present a solo session! The location is also notable; the Westerunie on the Westergas terrain in Amsterdam is a beautiful intimate, factory-like venue that will perfectly suit this event. Don’t miss this unique chance to hear Menno’s latest studio work, the newest Intuition Recordings releases and experience an astonishing laser and light-show.

The event is currently scheduled to take place between 22:00 and 04:00, a special permit to continue until 06:00 has been requested from the authorities however. The final verdict will be announced 3 weeks in advance.
