Carlos Francisco “Spanglish”: DJ/Producer/SP Recordings Label Manager
At a young age Carlos moved from Spain to London in the 1980’s to discover Soul, Electro and witnessed the birth of House music by listening to local pirate stations such as LWR and Solar FM and soon became a regular DJ at underground raves back in 1989. Carlos has since travelled back and forth between Spain, Europe and the UK, from djing house sounds in the notorious summer of Love in 1989, through to residencies in Brasil, London and Ibiza such as Rulin’ at Ministry Of Sound (5 Years), Fiction at The Cross (London) and the legendary Turnmills in London among many more….

Discography/ Productions and Future Projects
In 2001 Carlos teamed up with Javi De Colors (Stereo records) an released his debut single Sun Sacrifice, following up in 2002 with a single titled “Dance Floor Politics” for Tempo Music (Spain). In 2005 he released “La Ligia” on DTRAX (DTPM’s sister Label based in London) with heavy support and radio play from the likes of Tom Stephan and Sandy Rivera. Next followed “The Gringo E.P” containing two stonking peak timers “El Gringo” and “Ghetto Sparks” which are out now on SP Recordings. Next followed “Raindancer” and “Searching for Jack” two chunky underground house groovers which had back up from none other than the “Godfather of House” Marshall Jefferson. Remixes of “Raindancer’ by Richard Belsom (Cubism) will accompany the Original version and ‘El Gringo” has had the remix treatment too by Lunacy Sound Division’s Mark Gwinnet. Carlos also has shown his diversity and experience in the dance field with the recent “Taboo Groove” a deep house track out on Manuscript Recordings (Ukraine) a new deep house label with other releases by Joshua Collins and DJ Linus. “Taboo Groove” reached Number 4 in the Beatport Top 100 Deep House chart in Feb 2009. A remix of Natasha Black’s “Get With You” titled “Carlos Francisco’s Dark room Dub” is also out now on Cubism.
Carlos has recently worked with Stephan Remmler (Trio, Da Da Da- 1982) getting together a official remix of Trio’s famous 80’s track “Da Da Da” which was number one in more than 30 countries. The package includes a selection of sub-genre mixes from very important artists like Coco Silco and Lunacy Sound Division and is available now on SP Recordings. Solar Plexus and Butt Monkey were next on the list toping the Stompy sales chart and more currently Enter Badman with another fantastic remix by Coco Silco.
” I get bored easily with “Fashionable” dance styles so always try new sounds, but ALWAYS with one eye on the dance floor” Carlos F.
A self confessed lover of all music, Carlos’ productions and Dj sets are influenced by all genres from the world over, but one thing for sure you’ll always find echoes of latin spirit in there somewhere!..
Carlos has recently moved to Fortaleza (Brasil) were he will be concentrating on running the label as well as flying back for his monthly residencies and gigs in Europe.

“SEARCHING FOR JACK E.P”
If you like your beats served in a crispy manner then look no further, Raindancer bangs away with a hypnotic hook that will grab you by the base drums. A dramatic breakdown with crushed, synth-like melodies adds love to the whole affair. This should get the floor rockin’! A Side. “Raindancer” / LISTEN
Appropriately named, this is a fine example of what happens when you replace the bleeps with the beats! Pure house. Old school feel with a new school vibe. Wheres Jack?… Now you found him… This is a big room anthem for the house purists. AA Side. “Searching for Jack” / LISTEN(Follow up remixes coming from Richard Belsom (Cubism) Perino Reberio, FunkHead Fred and Matty Wells)
