3.2.2012 - Just finished up with some awesome shows w/ 16 Bit Lolitas, Morgan Page, USC Loves you (a local show that sold out Showbox SODO to over 1700 people), Christopher Lawrence and a few others.

1.5.2010 - 2010 was absolutely epic! Eric Mehlbrech made a nice thank you video for me that shows some clips from a few shows in 2010. 2011 is going to be huge and I can't wait to party with you guys! Here's a link to the video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LY2Vq0DvD8E
12.8.2010 - Believe it or not, a new website is being designed! About time huh! I'm sooo excited because it'll let me update things a lot better, provide a lot more content like live mixes that aren't on the podcast, videos and even a new live streaming video idea that I have :) As far as shows go, its been 6 years since i did a NYE show in Seattle cuz I never felt we had a solid 21+ electronic music event in those years. This year it changes with USC Events & Insomniac events throwing RESOLUTION w/ Grammy nominated Morgan Page, myself, Sean Majors, Johnny Fever and Josh Quest at the Showbox SODO. This event WILL sellout. I have discounted tickets that are cheaper than you can buy anywhere, shoot me an email if you wanna get a hold of some :)
10.27.2010 - Just a few more days til the biggest and craziest halloween show in the northwest United States...Freaknight 2010! This Saturday is going to be insane! They upped the capacity of the venue to 10,000 people so expect it to be an absolute madhouse! Doors open at 8pm and I play on the main stage at 9pm, right before Gareth Emery. Sorry for the delay in updating my site, I suck, thats my excuse LOL :)
7.30.2010 - Episode 13 should be out within the next few days so look out on iTunes for that. The show with Marco V was rad! We both had such a good time playing to the Seattle crowd. Next up I'll have a Locals Only show at Last Supper Club in Seattle. Then the Ruby Skye in San Francisco show on the 20th and the Las Vegas MGM Grand Wet Republic pool party on the 22nd. I'm doing a yacht party on August 28th which is gonna be a ton of fun cuz its going to be a sunset cruise that reminds me of the Sasha & Digweed Yacht Party in Miami every year. Also, we're gettin closer to my birthday show on September 3rd which will be with none other than ABOVE & BEYOND!
7.14.2010 - I can't even explain how excited I am for the next 2 months. So many awesome shows coming up and I can't wait to see em packed to the brim. I'll be playing on the main stage at the USC anniversary show this weekend and expect over 6000 in attendance! Also with Marco V at Last Supper Club on July 23rd and then some amazing out of town shows. I'll be at one of the top clubs in the US, Ruby Skye in San Francisco, on August 20th with Sander Van Doorn and I really hope all of you nearby can make that one. Its one of my favorite clubs I've ever been to. Also, I'll be playing on Sunday August 22nd at Wet Republic, the legendary pool party at the MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas. I can't even tell you how crazy that is gonna be! Might even have a super special guest in appearance for that one (he's one of the top DJ/producers in the world). ;) The podcast is continueing to grow and I can't thank you guys enough for your awesome emails, facebook messages, etc etc. Good times ahead!!!
6.5.2010 - I gotta say, the show with Tiesto on April 10th and the show with Sander Van Doorn on April 23rd were absolutely insane! The Tiesto show had roughly 8000 in attendance and they were goin crazy from start to finish! I also just got done playing with Armin Van Buuren on May 28th to a completely sold out Showbox SODO venue. It's been a great year so far and the podcast will be kicking into high gear this summer with more episodes coming out as often as I can get em out to you :) My next show is the USC anniversary show which is the 2nd largest electronic event of the year here in Seattle. Expecting 6000-8000 in attendance at that one. Take a look at the events page for more upcoming events and the media page to get a link to my podcast on iTunes. I'll be doing a huge update to my photo gallery on here. I've been so busy I actually forgot about it and its time to get it up to date. Thanks again for all your support!
3.25.2010 - Was up in Anchorage Alaska a few weeks ago and had a blast playing up there, even thought he weather got as cold as -3 degrees fahrenheit! Thanks Kirby and Shane for the wonderful hospitality in the great white north! Also just got back a few days ago from the Beyond Wonderland show in LA, wow, that show was nuts! A complete sellout of 32,000! I def have some amazing shows coming up! I'll be playing with John 00 Fleming on April 2nd, Tiesto on April 10th, Sander Van Doorn on April 23rd and Armin Van Buuren on May 28th with several other shows in between those dates. Sorry for the delay in episode 11 for my podcast on iTunes. I had to take care of some licensing issues and am having to cut a few songs out of previous podcasts. But no worries, I will be back up and running full speed very shortly and will be coming out with a video episode in the next week. Thanks for all the emails, myspace messages, facebook messages, iTunes comments, I read every single one of them :)
2.24.2010 - So 2010 has been beyond amazing so far! The Paul Van Dyk show sold out completely and I can't explain how much of a good time I had. The crowd was amazing, the stage looked amazing, and the vibe was off the charts! There will be a video podcast episode made from that show coming very soon. Also, my show with Morgan Page at the Last Supper Club was NUTS! It was packed wall to wall and the crowd was rockin from the moment the doors opened til the lights came on. Eric Mehlbrech from Portland made a special video from my show at Freaknight on October 31st here in Seattle. Its now up on iTunes so be sure to check it out! Episode 10 is also up on iTunes as well, its definitely a lot harder than some of my previous episodes and I hope you enjoy. Episode 11 will be recorded by this weekend :) Thanks again for your support guys, things are going really well and its all because of the support I receive from you. :)
1.13.2010 - Wow, 2009 was definitely an amazing year! So many great shows, great people and great music all over the place! 2010 is going to be one for the record books! I've got shows lined up with Tom Novy, Morgan Page, Paul Van Dyk and several others that I can't wait to tell you about ;) I'm also going to keep up with my promise that started Jan 1st of 2010 which is to do a minimum of 1 episode per month for my podcast on iTunes. Most months will see me putting out 2 episodes. Thanks again for all your support, messages and emails, I save each and every one! I can't wait to party with you guys this year! And like I tell many of you, if you want to see me come to your town, start spreading the word and start talkin to promoters and lets make this happen! :)

12.5.09 - The Above & Beyond show was simply out of control! Wow! Thank you to all who came! I'd say 2009 was a great year and I can't wait til 2010! I have one last show this year on December 18th. Its a winter yacht party and if it was anything like the last one they did, its going to be nuts! 2010 is going to start with a bang as I'm playing with the Ibiza superstar Tom Novy on January 22nd at Contour here in Seattle. And then the BIG one, I'll be playing with Paul Van Dyk on February 13th at the Showbox Sodo. Be prepared for a sellout show on that one! I also have some exciting new news that I'll be releasing once the talks are finalized :) Thanks again for all your support, without all of you I'd just be playing this music alone in my bedroom! :)
11.4.09 - Talk about an amazing show. Freaknight 13 was easily the show of the year in Seattle. Every DJ played off the charts amazing. You can see some of the videos from my camera on my youtube page:
www.youtube.com/thejohnnymonsoon. I will be uploading tons of pics from many shows this year into my gallery (I apologize for not keeping it updated). I'm also going to highly advise you to buy presale tickets to my show with Above & Beyond on November 25th @ the Last Supper Club. This show is going to sell out 100% and the ONLY way to guarantee entry is by having a presale ticket. I will also have a few more podcast episodes coming out in the next few weeks. See you soon! :)
10.7.09 - Oh man, October and November are going to be massive!
