The Sound
Not a playlist.
A musical journey.
Kono's sets move between deep house, disco house, nu disco, soulful grooves, Balearic textures and warm electronic rhythms. The focus is not on playing obvious hits, but on building a musical narrative that fits the room, the time slot and the audience.
That discipline comes from 34+ years of playing the music he loves - from Amsterdam's early-morning club rooms to open-air sunset stages across Europe. The range is deep. The approach is selective. The result is a dancefloor that feels curated, not accidental.
"Not every event needs a DJ who plays everything. Some rooms need a DJ who knows what not to play."

Where Kono fits
Best suited for
Boutique Club Nights
Intimate and curated
Underground rooms, listening-friendly floors and boutique parties where the music is the event. Sets that build slowly, hit deep and leave an impression.
Warm-Up Sets
Tasteful and progressive
Opening the night with restraint, texture and intention. Building the atmosphere without giving everything away - a discipline that comes with experience.
Sunset Sessions
Warm, Balearic and emotional
The magic hour deserves the right soundtrack. Soulful, Balearic-influenced sets that catch the energy between afternoon and night and hold it as long as possible.
Rooftop Events
Open-air and expressive
Rooftops need a DJ who can hold attention in an open environment. Warm frequencies, vocal-driven grooves and a sound that works with the sky, not against it.
Beach Clubs
Laid-back and hypnotic
Sand, sun and sound. Sets built for open-air daytime environments - deep grooves, organic textures and a BPM range that matches the pace of a good afternoon.
Boutique Festivals
Curated and intelligent
Festival stages where the booker cares about sound, not just names. Kono brings deep experience with stage dynamics, time-slot reading and programming that complements the full line-up.
Brand and Hospitality Events
Premium and on-brand
Product launches, brand activations, hotel events and exclusive corporate evenings where the music needs to feel intentional and elevated, not generic.
Listening Bars
Focused and considered
Spaces where people actually listen. Kono plays like a selector in the truest sense - each record chosen for its place in the story, not its recognisability.
Curated Private Events
Exclusive and tailored
High-quality private gatherings where the music experience matters. Full consultation, tailored set direction and the level of care that a private event deserves.

Questions
Frequently asked
What kind of club DJ is Kono Vidovic?
Kono is a selector-style club DJ with a clear sound built around deep house, disco house, nu disco, soulful house, Balearic and jazzy electronic music. His approach is focused on curation and musical journey rather than obvious crowd-pleasing selections. He is the right DJ for events where sound quality and musical taste matter.
What music does Kono play?
Deep house, disco house, nu disco, soulful house, Balearic, jazzy house, funky grooves and soulful electronic music. His sets build musical narratives that move fluidly across these connected sounds. He does not play EDM, commercial chart music or generic party DJ sets.
Is Kono available outside Amsterdam?
Yes. Kono is based near Amsterdam but takes bookings across the Netherlands, throughout Europe and internationally. Travel and accommodation costs apply for bookings outside the Netherlands. He has played in cities and at venues across Europe and welcomes international enquiries.
Can Kono play a warm-up set?
Yes, and it is one of his genuine strengths. Warm-up sets require deep musical knowledge, patience and an understanding of how to build atmosphere without jumping ahead of the main act. Kono treats warm-up as a discipline - not a lesser booking.
Can Kono play sunset or rooftop events?
Yes. Sunset sessions and rooftop environments are among the settings Kono works best in. His sound, which draws on Balearic, soulful grooves and deep house, is well suited to the atmosphere of early evening outdoor events where the music needs to catch and hold the moment between day and night.
Can I book Kono for a festival?
Yes. Kono is available for festival stage bookings including warm-up slots, sunset stages and headline sets at boutique and curated festivals. He has experience with outdoor crowd dynamics and programming that complements a wider festival line-up. Festival bookings are welcome from programmers who prioritise sound and curation.
Does Kono take private event bookings?
Yes. Private events such as exclusive gatherings, brand activations and curated private parties are all available. Private bookings include a full consultation to align on sound direction, atmosphere and guest profile. The same level of musical care applies as any club or festival booking.
Is Kono an allround party DJ?
No, not in the generic sense. Kono is not a DJ who plays everything for everyone. If you need a DJ who can cover commercial chart music, requests from all genres or a generic wedding set, Kono is not the right fit. If you need a DJ with a clear, developed musical identity built around deep house, disco and soulful electronic music, he is exactly that.
Can Kono create a custom mix for my event?
Yes. Beyond live bookings, Kono creates custom DJ mixes for events, venues, brand activations and hospitality spaces. Custom mixes start at EUR 249 and are delivered as 320 Kbps MP3 or WAV within 7 days. More information is available on the custom DJ mixes page.
What information should I send for a booking request?
Please include: the event date and location, event type (club night, festival, rooftop, private, etc.), the set time slot and expected duration, expected audience size and profile, line-up context if applicable, your sound direction and genre preferences, any technical setup information, and a budget indication. The more context you provide, the faster availability can be confirmed.
