O Sul do Brasil é um local privilegiado para os fãs da música eletrônica: clubes, festivais e uma cultura que na última década se fortaleceu muito compõem um cenário rico e em franco crescimento – e é dele que o gaúcho Fran Bortolossi surge como um dos mais talentosos protagonistas.

Fran começou a tocar no ano de 2006 na Serra Gaúcha, após uma infância cercada por música: sua mãe é pianista e desde cedo influenciou o filho a entender aquilo que aos poucos foi se revelando sua grande paixão. Em 2009 o DJ passou a fazer festas com a música que ele e seus amigos curtiam e desta inciativa nasceu a COLOURS, festa itinerante que já teve mais de 40 edições entre o Rio Grande do Sul e Santa Catarina e que hoje é uma referência nacional em produção e curadoria.

Além dos eventos que produz, o talento de Fran também foi se revelando nas mixagens e na construção de sets de House Music: sua residência de mais de 5 anos no clube Havana, em Caxias do Sul, lhe rendeu experiência para que hoje pudesse apresentar seu som em grandes festivais como a XXXPerience e o Winter Festival, além de clubes brasileiros do porte de D-Edge (SP), Warung (SC) e Vibe (PR). Em 2013, ao lado do também DJ e produtor Vini  Ferreira, Fran deu início ao projeto “BigPacGang”, que em 2014 lançou sua primeira faixa própria além de assinar um remix para os belgas LouLou Players e Kolombo.

No comando das pistas, à frente da produção de eventos ou dentro dos estúdios, o nome de Fran Bortolossi representa talento e comprometimento com a boa música eletrônica.
