He is actually right because Menno doesn't really have a style or flow, he plays overplayed trance choons, so if you dig the current trance melodies you are gonna enjoy his sets, other than that he is not anything special at all. I did enjoy the night and never wanted it to end, believe it or not Mark oliver's closing was way better than I expected. Regarding the crowds I'm not gonna make a comment because I never liked the guv's crowd and never will. Still 8/10 because I had fun from the start to the end. |

I disagree!
Menno's sets are usually much much different than the norm.
What everyone has to bare in mind, which many of you seem to not think about, is that Menno has always wanted to play at the Guvernment! Now that he is here, and heard how ing amazing the sound system is in that place, why the wouldn't he want to drop bomb after bomb????
Pretty much all those tracks I heard him play, we're MEANT for kick-ass live soundsystem! If it was mine, or yours, first time ever playing at the Guv, wouldn't you want to drop all the tracks you've always wanted to hear on the Guv sound system too?
Who gives a rats ass if his flow wasn't fully there, or that he played lots of tracks that many other DJ's play.... almost every track he dropped was made for that soundsystem! |

I agree with Mortyman,
He did an amazing job! He played a lot of great songs that was suited for the Guv.
Honestly, Menno kicks ass!
He chilled at my friends house the next day and he played a small set at her house. I was going to go but I had work early the next morning and it was already like 2am :(

Late Review:
Overall I give him a thumbs up. Really energetic, looked like he loved every second of being on stage, played longer than he was supposed to, played a lot of really good trance tunes to get everyone going. He's a man that will exceed far in DJing and is just getting the drift of it now, watch out for this guy in the years to come.
I loved his track selection, a mixture of everything - vocals, proggy trance, some banging tech trance and even a few techno ch00ns!!!
BUUUUUUT if you're going to play such a variety - like said above, you need good good flow and I think he tried to "impress" us a bit since it was his first time in toronto/guv. There's nothing wrong with that, hell I'd try to impress guv too if I was an up and coming DJ playing at a world class club for the first time. I was not expecting him to drop banging tech trance or any techno at all and he kinda seemed weird sicne it wasnt the "real" menno I'd heard on previous sets, way more ligther.
Overall a great night, crowd was kinda pushy but i've had worse. |
