Artist Biography
Vengaboys are a eurodance band that came to prominence in 1997. They were formed from DJ Danski (Dennis van den Driesschen) and DJ Delmondo (Wessel van Diepen), Dutch, who toured Spanish beach parties in a bus. They formed in 1992 and gained four dancers during 1995-96. Some of their most successful singles include "Uncle John from Jamaica", "We're Going to Ibiza", "Boom Boom Boom Boom" and "We Like to Party". Like in Spanish, the V is pronounced with a soft B sound, as such- "Bengaboys". A guest-singer from Spain, for the producer's previous project Nakatomi, kept repeatedly singing Venga in their songs, which means come in Spanish. This led to the name 'Vengaboys' as their following project.
