Ibiza is definetely the place to be for clubbers in the summer. I love the island like nothing else, and had another great experience there last week playing at Amnesia. This podcast is a bit of a tribute to that set and the island in general, featuring tracks that I played there, tracks that I think will be big there as well as the usual new tunes. The pictures included with this podcast (only visible in iTunes, the latest Winamp or on your iPod) are from Electric Daisy Carnival in LA, where I played 2 weeks ago. Incredible party, and cool pics (taken by Rukes and Gilbert Rizo), so check it out!

Enjoy it, and hopefully see you somewhere this summer.

Lots of love, Menno :)

Tis the season to be jolley! No I’m not talking about winter, Christmas, Sinterklaas or whatever your holy holiday may be. If you ask me, it’s all about the summer. Warm weather, some time off from your work or school, a vacation with your friends or loved ones, outdoors festivals, cocktails on the beach, getting a tan and whatever else may make you feel warm and fuzzy on the inside. Christmas is great, but how on earth can it outweigh those sorts of things?

It was about time I gave you all another update indeed. My sincerest apologies for the temporary silence, although I did do my very best to keep you musically up to date with my podcasts (new one coming next week by the way!) I have been very productive though in the meantime, spending devastatingly dull days in the University library has resulted in me being one exam away from a degree, hurray! The only obstacle currently between myself and being a fulltime musician is the wonders of ‘International Marketing Research’, a lovely bit of applied statistical methods.

Musically seen I haven’t been sitting still either. My latest track with Mark Otten “Mad World” has already been popping up in playlists all over the globe, and looks like it will be out in a week or two. It’s a bit of a deeper tune than usual, which I do hope you can appreciate too! Marcus Schossow has delivered a terrific remix, check out both versions below:

That’s all for now, more updates coming soon though. Do check out my updated agenda with loads of hot & wild parties! Wh0000t!

Love, Menno
