In May 1988 a boy called Joey Janssen was born in Arnhem, The Netherlands. From the first moment he could put a step on earth he loved to dance on dance music. He just couldn’t sit still when he heard a beat as his mother always said.

At the age of 12 Joey Janssen discovered the beats of Tiësto and Rank 1. He loved this music and it became his obsession. When he was 14 years old his father bought an Apple computer with the Garageband program on it. Every day Joey was busy with making music. But then he discovered that the music was played by DJ’s with vinyl.

When he became 16 years old he got his first turntables as a present and bought a mixer. He ordered some vinyl and started to learn DJ-ing. A good friend of him learned him a lot, he lived in the same street as Joey. He had some gigs in his hometown and played on the Red Bull hummer in a crowded city together with a friend. After a few gigs he know that he needed to create some own music.

Nowadays Joey is creating beats every day under his artist name: Renvo. He also did a project as Intersonic with many releases on High Contrast Recordings in 2010, but he decided to go solo in 2011. Playing at the Dancetour Festival and A State of Trance 500 event in the Netherlands is just the start of what we can expect from Renvo.
