In 10 years, Stadium has welcomed the most talented DJs. Below is a list of them, click a name to know more about the DJ.
A DJ since ‘96, beginning his career playing at many of the UK’s major clubs & dance events, Jon has now become a regular at some of the most exciting clubs and events of the era. Fusing almost any kind of electronic music, Jon’s unique but diverse blend of sounds has won him many admirers globally.
Jons’ entrance into the
electronic music scene began by working at Amato Distribution, moving on
to co-found the world famous download site - Trackitdown.net. From here
Jon was asked to manage the legendary Intec Records label for Carl
Cox. It’s a safe bet therefore to say that Jon understands this
industry and knows good production when he hears it. It was one of Jons’
own productions, ‘Dirty Disco’, that caught the attention of Carl who
signed the release for Intec Records and gave him the progression he
strived following his previous productions. The track turned heads and
led to a further barrage of support including further productions on
Intec records, as well as remix work on Carl Cox’s hugely successful
artist album ‘Second Sign’. Jon has continued to prove his talent and
swims in support across the industry and by fans alike, through showing
the world that his talent goes beyond producing killer tracks and
through entertaining crowds with his DJ sets too. Of all his virtues as
both DJ and producer, Jon’s greatest seems to be an innate understanding
of what makes his audience tick and the uncanny ability to translate
that into his stellar productions.
Over the years, Jon has been
responsible for Techno releases on various labels including Intec
records, Hardasfunk and Trevor Rockcliffes’ Mentor Records. It is Jons
clever, funk-laden Techno that really caught the industries attention
and established him as a true one to watch. As Jon has matured as both
a DJ and artist, he has become very experimental in his sound and this
has served him well – filthy basslines and wicked beats, Rundells’
productions are carefully crafted to inflict maximum dance-floor damage.
Support for Jons’ productions comes from all over the globe now as he
seeks to express himself further, showing his ability to produce quality
in almost any kind of electronic music. Paul van Dyk, having strongly
supported Jons productions since his remix of Sebastian Legers ‘Bad
Clock’ and ‘Olskool’, snapped up the very original sounding ‘What is it’
and ‘Our Floor’ as well as follow up releases in the shape of
‘Turntable Knights’ and ‘Taking Time’ for his new digital imprint,
Vandit Digital. Recognising Jons water-tight production capabilities,
PvD later asked Jon to remix one of his own tracks ‘Detournement’ for
his album ‘Hands on Inbetween’. 2008 became one of Jons busiest years
production wise and he has not stopped since. Late 2008 and Jons remix
of ‘Devilfish – Man Alive’ gained the track a No1 spot in Beatports
Techno chart for a massive 6 weeks and a No2 in the main chart. Jons
‘Dawn Raid’ was released on Sander van Doorns, Doorn Records along side a
mix from Sander himself. Further tracks of Jons have been released on
Teggno, Spinnin’ and Baroque. Recent remix duties have been called upon
by the likes of Nervous Records (NYC), Oliver Moldan, Axel Karakasis,
Jeton, Bush Records and Suara. With constant requests for remixes and
with continual work on fresh material of his own there’s much to be
heard from Jon on its way.
Recent gig highlights show
how Jon has progressed DJ wise over the last few years. Jon has toured
Europe extensively playing an array of more intimate venues as well as
the daddys of dancefloors including Matter in London, Koko, Air,
Sankeys, Privilege & Space in Ibiza. Tour wise, Jon has not been
shy to the world having embarked on two tours of Australia, playing club
dates as well touring with the Big Day Out and Future Music Festivals -
often playing to no less than 20,000 people. Jon has been across
America & Canada on more than one occasion playing to crowds across 8
cities, including very special sets at New Yorks Cielo and Pacha.
Faith in Jons crowd pleasing sets has seen many festival promoter
request his presence - Jon has been a part of the line up at UKs Global
Gathering, Dancevalley, Ultra Music Festival, Sonar, Future, Creamfields
Europe, South West Four, EH1 Music Festival and the massive
Tommorowland in Belgium.
