Dj/Producer ONNO (24/01/1983) can be seen as one of todays most promising Dutch DJs and producers, and his dj skills are currently taking him across the major clubs in Holland and the rest of the world. He was the resident dj for the world famous Chemistry parties in Amsterdam at the tender age of 19, and soon after major gigs at clubs like Panama (Amsterdam), Red-Light (Paris), Space (Miami) and festivals like Mysteryland and Sensation White followed. Now he is a regular at the Earth parties in Amsterdam, and has a weekly radio show on Radio FG in France.
Amsterdam based recording artist Rocco Mundo (a.k.a HJ Sperwer, 1971) started his musical career in 1991, working in the Bullet Sound studies on projects with international artists like Lenny Kravitz, Prince and Capella. In 1996 he started collaborating with The Scumfrog, remixing and releasing several projects of their own on several labels and featured on various compilations ranging from the much acclaimed Global Underground compilation by Danny Tenaglia to the Magik Series by Tiesto. Around 1998 Rocco Mundo left Amsterdam to travel, and played and produced music all around the globe. Now he currently lives in Amsterdam Collaborating with rising dj star ONNO.
The combination of Roccos experience and ONNOs fresh outlook proved to be a killer combination. Their initial demo material received enthusiastic responses from several established record labels and prompted Sander Kleinenberg to personally call and comment on the quality and freshness of the tracks. Soon after tracks were signed by Little Mountain, Minimal, Suburban tracks and JEE recordings.
Next to this, house Legends Cevin Fisher and The Scumfrog asked them to remix their dark but uplifting summer anthem Let the sun shine on me which caused a big stir in clubland in the summer of 2005. Now they are remixing Scumfrogs upcoming chartbuster Beat as one and the upcoming release on Earth Audio.
In the mean time their release on Jee Recordings is picked up by no one less then Hernan Cattaneo for his Renaissance compilation, due in April 2006.
Fans of their work include James Zabiela, Satoshi Tomiie, Chris Fortier, Sander Kleinenberg, Tom Superchumbo Stephan, Roger Sanchez, Chris Salt, Deep Dish, The Scumfrog, Granite & Phunk, Steve Lawler, Chus & Ceballos, Hernan Cattaneo and many more.
