Méni (fka Menica, Sundae Sue), a Belgian-born DJ, label owner, and record collector, has established a name for herself through her wide-ranging sets and Ghent-based parties since 2012. Her first loves were jazz, rhythm & blues, funk and soul, and through these genres, she developed a taste for a groove that sticks with her to this day. Funky, easygoing, and with a heavy case of nostalgia, Méni keeps digging, creating sets for those who cherish the old that stays new. However, growing up during the rise of the Belgian electronic music scene, she soon began mixing and playing electronic music at parties in Ghent and Brussels.

For Méni, the connection between the artist and the dancer comes first. With this in mind, she founded Ojoo Music in 2017, her imprint where she curates events and releases that showcase a diverse range of electronic music, with a high appreciation for artistic individuality and movement. In Ghent dialect, you say “ojoo” to express joy and wonder, especially to share those feelings with others around you; this is exactly the spirit that defines the label.  She carefully selects venues that nurture the artist-dancer connection so the events are always intimate and full of character. By discovering and showcasing emerging talents, she’s building a community of artists, dancers, and friends who share a passion for electronic music with no boundaries. A label was never far away, as were the first two releases in 2019.

In 2020, she started the Good Fruit podcast series, inspired by Funkadelic’s mantra “Good Thoughts, Bad Thoughts.” It was never about club music; instead, Good Fruit became a space for deep listening - something to enjoy while driving, cooking, dining, or simply taking a moment to slow down. Now, those thoughts bloom in real life, sometimes as a day-long, open-air chill-out session in the green embrace of De Tuin van Heden during spring and summer, and at other times inside as an intimate evening session of deep listening during the colder months.

In 2022, she was a resident at Belgium’s longest-running techno club, Fuse Brussels, but nowadays holds a residency at Funke, an art space, bar and club in Ghent.
