When he says: ‘‘music is the most important thing in my life,’’ Mendo means it. The striking new star of the Cadenza crew has devoted almost 20-years of his life to dance music and he’s still bursting with enthusiasm for what the next 20 will hold. Thanks to his tireless production work and infectious DJ sound, Mendo has reached all the right ears. Luciano was so impressed he signed both his ‘Remember’ and ‘Encantos’ EPs to his Cadenza imprint and kick-started the beginning of an exciting collaboration which has seen Mendo join the Vagabundos to ignite both Pacha and Ushuaia in Ibiza. When he’s not running with the Cadenza crew Mendo is globe-trotting to destinations as diverse as Japan, South America and across central Europe, and on Thursday 16th February you’ll be able to witness first hand his incredible four-deck Traktor sets that blend the best of house, live sampling and techno futurism, as Endless present the Cielo debut of the rising Spanish star. ‘‘The key to a successful party is to get girls dancing. Once they dance, everybody does,’’ he says with a smirk. ‘‘I just want people to have a good time with my music. DJing is the best job in the world!’’ Amen to that.
