Speaking about Paco Osuna is referring to one of the most successful producers and DJs to hail from Spain, so much so that he has forged a very important position within the top ranks of the European dance community as a whole, and it is not easy to summarize his success, but it is possible to derive it from three common denominators: creativity, innovation and evolution.

Paco Osuna found interest in music at the age of 14; by the time he was 20 he completed his first track and in 1994 he turned his passion into his profession. His career jump-started when he earned a residency at the legendary club Amnesia in Ibiza, allowing him to establish himself as an artist to watch, and subsequently joined the roster of the prestigious Cocoon Agency. From this launching point, his own musical creativity was put to the task and he quickly began creating productions for labels such as Serial Killer, Morbid, and Real State, until 2003, when he started his own label, Shake Records, which was when Paco began to formally develop his own unique style.

In 2006, Paco Osuna created his second label, Mindshake, which continues his mission to reach his full potential as an artist. With international contemporaries such as Skoozbot, Ambivalent, Paul Ritch, Matteo Spedicatti and Andrea Ferlin on board, Mindshake began to quickly receive praise and great success attracting attention from the world over. Within his own country, he helped open Club 4, a club with a concept, which has emerged as a foundation of the original Barcelona scene, establishing itself as the choice for variety and accessibility to new musical tendencies.

As if this was not enough, Paco Osuna is now intimately linked to Plus 8, with two strong EP releases to date, Crazy and Orbeat, both receiving great success on a global level. This continuous movement has characterized Paco throughout his career, and he has diversified yet again creating a new hybrid DJ/live set, which he has presented internationally in prestigious clubs and events like Awakenings Amsterdam), Fabric (London) and Goa Club (Rome). Thus, his dedication, skill and popularity, have led to several tours around the globe with stops at DEMF (Detroit), WMC (Miami), SAMC (Buenos Aires), and Amore (Rome) to name a few.

Paco Osuna continues to evolve his own unique sound. He has the rare ability to take the most pure minimalistic audio palette and inject it with his own personality, with an emphasis on clarity, momentum, depth, agility and intelligence. Utilizing these traits, combined with his unbridled creativity and innovation while performing live on stage, his strength, passion and energy shows through in his dynamic sets, creating a story and establishing a unique connection with his audience.

"To control mind, body and soul through music" is what DJ/producers Peter Bailey & Richie Santana set out to do every time they perform, whether it's solo, or together as seamlessly as if they were one.

Named after their peak-hour Stereo Productions smash of the same name, the duo's Mind Control residency started in late 2006 at world-famous nightclub Pacha New York. The party takes a bit of a unique approach in the club world, letting the two DJs tag-team track-for-track as their set progresses.

"It allows us to really work off each other, and work off the crowd as well," says Bailey. "Sometimes Richie will play a song, and it will remind me or inspire me to throw up a track that I didn't even expect to play. It has a nice spontaneity to it, and the crowd really seems to appreciate that."

But don't think that the sets are disjointed. The crowds at Pacha wouldn't put up with anything but the best. It's almost like, as the name suggests, Bailey and Santana are working from the same brain, or at least the same control center.

It works based on the long time relationship of Peter and Richie. They've been one-upping each other since 1991 when they met in high school. One was locked away in the studio producing bootleg hits such as Eurythmics' "Sweet Dreams", while the other was playing raves with the likes of Frankie Bones and Kevin Saunderson.

Fast forward a few years and Peter and Richie have undoubtedly become New York's premier production duo. Whether it be there solo productions or their work together as "Mindcontrol", they consistently turn out peak time floor fillers that receive support from a variety of DJs ranging from Victor Calderone and Dubfire to Roger Sanchez and Erick Morillo showing the true versatility of their sound.

But what separates Richie & Peter on the DJ front, is their passion for having nothing but the freshest sounds, often specially tailored with clever editing just for their dj sets, the two will not settle for anything less. Always on top of their game and always having everyone ask..."what was that record"!

After releasing their first compilation entitled “Mindcontrol” on Star 69 (2008) the boys have teamed up with Nervous Records to bring you their 2nd installment packed with obscure gems, unreleased originals and remixes, with a small dose of chart toppers sure to keep you ADDICTED.
