At the tender age of 14 he was part of a regular crowd at Studio 54, where the most charismatic DJ, Raul Orellana, was spinning Acid House, marking Paco in the way of understanding DJing.In '94 Paco moved to Valencia where he had his first contact with the decks as a hobby. In '95 Paco made his first DJ set as a professional at the ACTV club, where he gained a year residency. After that, he started playing in many different clubs including Heaven and Universal.In the meanwhile he worked in a record shop, where he got access to a recording studio in which he produced three singles for the label Lucas Records. In '99 he got a residency at Amnesia in Ibiza. There he had the brilliant opportunity to be lined up with the biggest DJs and could learn the different styles, looking to build his own. Amnesia was also the place where Paco got in touch with the person who most influenced his future as much personally as professionally, Sven Väth, who soon discovered Paco to be very talented and introduced him in his Cocoon Booking agency. Paco was the first Spanish DJ to play for this prestigious agency.In 2001 Paco decided to migrate away from House music, moving closer to Techno. From then on his career has gotten better and better, leading him to the best clubs and festivals in the world. Being at home in both House and Techno, as well as in the fusion between them, Paco Osuna understands his sets as an "in-crescendo"-journey causing variations of tension that drive the dancefloor crazy. The combination of this factor and his unquestionable technical skills has led to Paco being considered one of the most solid promises of the international scene.===> LINKS: Paco Osuna on MySpace (with music samples):http://www.myspace.com/pacoosunaPaco Osuna's discography: http://www.discogs.com/artist/Paco%20OsunaAn alternate bio:http://www.awakenings.nl/index.php?s=3⊂=artist&aid=284===> MUSIC:Paco Osuna - "5 Weeks" Minitek Festival Podcast - Aug 2008:http://www.kontrolsf.com/K41/Paco_Osuna_-_5_Weeks.mp3Paco Osuna gets deep @ Rex Club, Paris (streaming)http://www.dancetrippin.tv/lib.cfm/2431/DJ_mixes_114/Paco_Osuna//Preview Paco's top tracks on BeatPort:https://www.beatport.com/en-US/html/content/artist/detail/15598/paco_osuna===> VIDEO:Paco Osuna @ DEMF, 2008: Paco Osuna @ Amore Festival, Italy Paco Osuna @ Fluid, Italy: ____________________________________________________SET TIMES:10:00-11:15 Sammy D11:15-12:30 Alland Byallo12:30-01:45 Craig Kuna01:45-04:45 PACO OSUNA04:45-06:00 Nikola Baytala___________________________________________________http://www.kontrolsf.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
