François Kevorkian;
Born and raised in France, his passion for music led to playing the drums during his teen years, and he moved to the US in 1975, where he hoped to find more challenging situations than those back home. Due to the heavy competition for any gig as a drummer in those days, he instead tried his hand at becoming a DJ in underground NYC clubs, around 1976. His career then skyrocketed, and he quickly was able to make this his full-time occupation, although some of it was at more commercial venues such as the club 'New York, New York' in 1977. During that time, he self-taught himself editing and started making 'Disco Medleys', some of which are still popular to this day, such as Rare Earth's "Happy Song" and others. He was offered a position doing A&R for a nascent Dance Indie record label, Prelude Records, which allowed to him to go into the studio and do remixes. His first remix, of a Patrick Adams production, "In The Bush" by Musique became a wild success both in clubs and on the radio, and was the first of many remixes that helped Prelude define the sound of New York's dance music, including such memorable songs such as "You're The One For Me' and "Keep On" by D-Train, "Beat The Street" by Sharon Redd, and many more. His stint at Prelude ended in 1982, the same year where he had the most Number One singles in Billboard's Dance Music Chart, which included his remixes of now-classic song such as "Situation" by Yazoo, and "Go Bang" by Dinosaur L.
Loco Dice;
THE OUTLINE:
Rewind back to the start of the last decade when a teenage Loco Dice was a rapper and a Hip Hop Dj, playing support slots to Usher, Ice Cube, Jamiroquai, Snoop Dog and R. Kelly.
THE PAST:
The Tunisian Born Loco Dice soon became a very well known figure in his native German Hip Hop scene and as the scene exploded (becoming Germany's biggest musical genre, as it did right across the world) he did what any self respecting underground artist would: He switched to house music. But not any old house music: very sexy and very crowd pleasing House Music.
DJ-ING:
His tribal, sweetly funky, bassline driven, dance floor friendly skills have given him a residency at 2004's coolest club DC-10 and Germany's favorite venue, Dusseldorf's Tribehouse. He regularly tours America, both North and South, having played all the Spundae’s, all the Crobars, Creamfields and Pacha. His first release on 420 "Phat Dope Shit" has gone stellar, his remixes of Timo Maas's "Help Me" had a worldwide release.
