Italian DJ and producer Francis De Simone debuts on Lee Foss and Jamie Jones' label Hot Creations with London Bass. Having built a solid back catalogue in recent years, his first Hot Creations release embodies the dynamic sound of the Palermo-born artist, channelling chunky tech house and disco-flavoured melodies. 

De Simone explains his creative thinking behind the EP. "These tracks fully express my devotion to music. I ranged a lot, trying to remember an 80's sound up to a more raw and synthetic groove with Latin vocals to embrace the different ethnic groups." Reflecting his thoughts to a tee, the title track rumbles with a massive bassline and chopped-up vocals that add an instant burst of energy. Things get weird on Saludos A Todos, as thumping kickdrums collide with a trippy melody and even trippier vocals, creating a wavey atmosphere. The ideal club curveball. On Off White, De Simone delivers a pacey number packed with burbling beats and clicky percussion, complemented by dreamy vocals. The hint is in the name on closing track, This Is Undergound. A big room delight, De Simone drops a stripped-back banger, where the lyrics do the talking in tandem with a driving bassline. An excellent addition to the Hot Creations discography. 

Based in Palermo, Italy, Francis De Simone stems from a family of musicians. Having played the drums from age two, the versatile artist can make anything from rock, pop and jazz, but these days, De Simone pens electronic music. His father worked as a bouncer for various local discos and exposed De Simone to dance music from a young age, later inspiring him to produce house and techno with an uplifting tint. 

Releases on Glasgow Underground, LW Recordings and REALM Records have helped shape the profile of this flourishing artist, with plenty more to come further down the line.

Paco Osuna regala TRANSHEET original mix!	 
 	
Dado el inminente lanzamiento de LONG PLAY y bajo el tono de celebración de 20 años de carrera, Paco Osuna regalará el segundo track, TRANSHEET, este miércoles 24 de Septiembre. TRANSHEET (original mix) fue incluido en Orbeat, el segundo EP de Paco publicado en Plus8 y lanzado en abril de 2008.


“Orbeat es es un disco que me gusta mucho y Transheet fue el track que tuvo más repercusión del EP, el que dio más de qué hablar porque era simple y efectivo al mismo tiempo, por esa fracción de voz que se quedaba grabada en la cabeza. Transheet tiene una vocal entrecortada que tomé de un audio al azar y creó mucha expectación con respecto a lo que la vocal decía; recibí cientos de interpretaciones pero en realidad no tiene significado, yo no entiendo lo que dice inclusive a cappella ;)”



El Transheet que Paco nos entrega es especial, ya que es una versión distinta a la que salió a la venta:

“Esta versión tiene un sonido que tomé de un hall de un aeropuerto: grabé a la gente, el murmullo de la sala, el ruido de un avión y lo inserté en el break. Esto no existe en el tema original, es una versión que hice para mí y es la que yo pinchaba; simplemente porque la probe cuando el disco ya había salido. La diferencia con el original no es muy grande, es tan solo un detalle, un sonido de fondo en un momento de silencio pero que realmente le da vida al track en esa parte”. Paco Osuna


Transheet estará en libre descarga en el Soundcloud Oficial de Paco durante 24 horas, a partir de este miércoles 24 de septiembre a las 12hrs. Estar atentos ya que cada miércoles hasta el 8 de octubre, Paco Osuna y Minus estarán regalando un corte distinto. Enjoy!

Paco Osuna gives away second free track: TRANSHEET 	 
 	
Due the imminent release of LONG PLAY and the celebration of a career spanning 20 years, Paco Osuna will be giving away a second track this Wednesday September 24th. TRANSHEET, originally included on Orbeat, Paco’s second EP on Plus8 which was released in April of 2008, is the cut chosen by the artist himself to share for free download.


“Orbeat it is an album that I really like and Transheet was the track that had the biggest impact on the EP, the one people talked about the most, because it was simple and effective at the same time, and also because of that fraction of voice that stayed in my head. Transheet has a faltering voice that I took from a random audio and it created a lot of excitement about what the voice was saying; I received hundreds of interpretations but it really had no meaning – I do not understand what it says even a cappella ;) ”



This Transheet is special too because Paco has picked out a different version to the one originally on sale:

“This version has a sound that I took from an airport hall: I recorded the people, the murmur of the gate, the sound of a plane and inserted it all in the break. That doesn’t exist in the original track; it's a version that was made ​​for me and it’s the one I used to play – simply because I produced it when the EP was already released. The difference with the original is not that big, it’s just a detail, a background sound in a moment of silence but one that really gives life to that part of the track.”. Paco Osuna


Transheet will be available for free download on Paco Osuna’s official Soundcloud for 24 hours starting at midday on Wednesday September 24th. Stay tuned because every Wednesday until October 8th, Paco Osuna and Minus will be giving away another exiting cut. Enjoy!

Dennis Cruz - Better Than Me (Original Mix)

With a career spanning more than 20 years, Paco Osuna is one of the most renowned artists in the industry. His creativity, courage and relentless search for new forms of expression are some of his principal and consistent virtues when it comes to making music. On the dance floor, he is lively, intelligent and sophisticated, with a deep awareness for sound aesthetics. Every session is important to Paco and he sets out to invent and renew every time he steps onto the stage.

In 2006 he launched Mindshake, conceived as a platform for the creation and distribution of electronic music. Over the past few years, Mindshake has become one of the most important techno labels in the US and Europe. Also in 2006, Paco founded a club with a fresh concept, Club4, which has established itself as the overwhelming choice for its variety and accessibility in electronic music offerings.

Throughout his career Paco has performed at clubs, parties and festivals of great prestige. The list of events in which he has played is endless, and is one where quality is more important than quantity. From Fabric London to WOMB Tokyo, passing through Space NYC, Space Miami, Verboten New York, Watergate Berlin and Electric Brixton London. Meanwhile, Sónar, Awakenings, Dockyard, ADE, Neopop, BPM, Electric Zoo, Movement Detroit, Time Warp and Tomorrowland are some of the many festivals he has played.

From 2012 to 2014 he was resident for Richie Hawtin’s ENTER, appearing not only at Space Ibiza but also in its tour around the world. In 2015 Paco Osuna became part of Music On, joining Marco Carola in residencies at Amnesia Ibiza and the Story club in Miami, as well as the emblematic parties during BPM Mexico. In 2016 he was selected to be ambassador of PLAYdifferently Model1, a distinction also received by Loco Dice, Chris Liebing, Dubfire and, of course, Richie Hawtin. 2016 was also an important year for the Mindshake showcases, in which Paco participated alongside other label producers with tours taking in European and American stages, including events such as the Miami Music Week and ADE Amsterdam. The Mindshake showcases are both an extension of the musical and artistic vision of Paco and a family celebration, where the main goal is to create an unforgettable musical experience.

In the studio, Paco Osuna has moulded his own musical signature, coating the purest techno sounds with his characteristic features: depth, darkness and imagination, always accentuated by his creativity and innovation. Proof of that are his releases on labels such as Plus8, Minus, Mood, Spectral and Hommage, plus productions for his own platform Mindshake.
With a long career and background, Paco has picked up several prizes for his hard work on and off the stage, receiving the awards for Best Artist, Best Techno DJ, Best Producer and Best Remix from the Vicious Awards and DJ Mag Spain.

During 2016 Paco Osuna will extend the journey that has led him be the artist that he is today. This year, his residencies with Music On Ibiza and Miami will continue, while he will also still be focusing his energy on his main project Mindshake, a label that will end this year having published more than 45 works since its conception.
