Dutchman Raymond Teunisse (aka DJ Raymundo) developed his passion for music at a very young age. He was inspired by his father's love of 80s synth pop (Hot Butter, Jean Michel Jarre and Kraftwerk). He knew very quickly that his future lay in music.
Raymond's DJ career began as a teenager on an illegal pirate radio station in a small coastal town, hearing house music for the first time. The radio station allowed him to meet former Escape resident DJ Marcello, who was spinning at the famous Club IT in Amsterdam at the time. Marcello gave Raymond the opportunity to start playing in the same club, an incredible opportunity at such a young age
Throughout the 90s, Raymundo built his name in clubs throughout the Netherlands. Then one day, out of the blue, it happened. He was asked to become resident of the finest club in the country, the Escape Venue.
For many years Raymundo has consistently rocked his Saturday night residency entitled FrameBusters. Crucially, he is also the talent booker, inviting national and international top DJs (Dennis Ferrer, Kerri Chandler, Roog, Fedde le Grand, David Guetta, etc) to offer the top night out in Amsterdam.
His years of hard work have paid off as the Escape won Best Dutch Club of
2007 recently! As he says himself: "This means so much to me because I have been resident DJ and programmer for so many years. The endless queues each and every weekend are further evidence of our leading position in Dutch nightlife".
Through the week Raymond works in the studio. His track Framebusted (signed to Radikal Rhythm) quicky topped several dance charts, enjoying airplay on the best radio stations all over Europe. Raymundo has remixed the latest Dos Polamas Negras release called Calypsos, which has also enjoyed widespread DJ support. The latest track, Rip It Up! also featured a superb Olav Basoski remix and was one of the biggest dance tracks of 2007.
Raymond has headlined major festivals such as Dance Valley, Mystery Land, Loveland Festival and almost every club throughout the Netheland including Hotel Arena, Hed Kendi, Panama, Nighttown, Republiek Bloemendaal, Las Palmas, De Rechter, Sinners, Soularic, Roxy, It, Girls Love DJs, Rise, Loveland ADE, De Kroon, Supperclub, Latino Beats, Vak Zuid, Powerzone, Zebra Lounge, DJ Club Haarlem, Lido, Haarlem Fridays, Beachbob, Dancevoort Festival, Countdown (tv), Plastic Dance Festival, Royal Suite and more.
He is also frequently booked outside of Holland in places as far flung as Dubai, USA and Egypt, and now that Raymundo has signed to the POW! DJs agency he is expected to have many more on foreign soil in 2008.
Due to his extremely high profile as a DJ, he is frequently booked for business events, spinning for clients such as Tommy Hilfiger, Pro Sport, Criminal, Zoë events, Libelle Zomerweek, Cosmopolitain 25th Aniversary, Reebok, Man @ Work, The Entertaiment Group, Deloitte & Touche and more.
Watch out for even more from this talented and experienced Dutch DJ/producer in 2008!
