Fat Freddy's Drop’s pirate soul train, resolutely independent, worldwide.

Formed in 1999 in Wellington, New Zealand our sound draws inspiration from almost every part of the black music lexicon. Soul drenched vocals and jazz harmonies collide with tape delays and echo chambers, underpinned by a rhythm section as comfortable laying down a throbbing, techy soundscape as they are a swampy blues stomp.

Originally from Mauritius, Olivier Francis has been involved in electronic music for over 20 years. Shaped by club culture and the energy of nightlife, he explores techno, deep house, and cinematic soundscapes, always aiming to create moments that connect and move people on the dancefloor.

His DJ sets focus on flow, tension, and progression — guided by a careful reading of the crowd and a genuine desire to tell a story through music.

Alongside DJing, Olivier continues to grow as a producer. He has released music on labels such as SoupHerb Records, Differed Records, Padang Records, Feel Hype Records, Alpaka Muzik, and Beige Records, with tracks supported by artists across the scene. His approach remains simple: keep experimenting, keep learning, and share emotion through sound.

Olivier is also a member of the Dance For Peace Collective (https://www.facebook.com/DanceForPeaceCollective/
), and actively contributes to bringing the collective’s values and events to Montreal.

biography:
Back in 2004, the fusion of the sounds of soft and mystical house rhythms as well as harmonic parts inspired by trance music gave rise to the first ideas of a project that would only start to appear more actively on the edm scene a little later, a project called Jelly For The Babies.
What adorns the producer behind the above-mentioned project is the variety in his creations, playing with synths and rhythms, experimentation that eventually led to his sound being easily recognizable.
Just like his spirit, his music is not bound by genre, but is "free", and you can see the releases signed both for progressive and techno, as well as for publishing houses that cultivate the sound of deep, minimal and organic house music. .
Therefore, the very thing that makes him original leads to his music, throughout his career, being supported, both through sets and through the charts, by artists such as Hernan Cattaneo, Eelke Kleijn, John Digweed, Way Out West, Guy J and many others.
Then come the first international guest appearances, tours, festivals and club parties in Lithuania, Portugal, France, Germany, Switzerland, South Africa, Holland, Italy as well as countries in the region.
Graduated Audio & Video engineer as well as the owner of three publishing houses, The Purr, One Of A Kind and RYNTH, where he mentioned discovering new talents, giving young producers a chance, promoting them in the best possible way and mutual cooperation with more experienced colleagues as the key thing .

If I had to define my existence, it would not be written in a book, but played through notes in life over the years.
