Francois Kevorkian

going to see this absolute legend tomorrow night (along with H-Foundation, Groove Armada, Grandmaster Flash, Q-Bert and DJ Marky), a truly original DJ who knows good music, amazing to think he's 53 and still fucking loves it!
anyone else seen him lately?

Nope, he's still on my to do-list..

It's Kevorkian by the way.

indeed it is, my bad
go see him ASAP, he's on a completely different level

for the past few years he's had his weekly "deep space" parties on monday night in the nyc club Cielo and the stuff he spins is definitely unique -- and not for everyone.

i'm not sure how much he changes it up for a non-new york gig, but he's surely one of the most unique and eclectic djs currently working. he's liable to drop everything from dub to downtempo to minimal to disco house to '80s electro to roots reggae: he's been around long enough to have seen and heard it all so he spins stuff that he finds interesting.

going to see him tonight over here! saw him few months back at a festival and he was far the best dj of the wkend absoutly amazing he was

he's a legend. i've heard sets from him, mostly silky smooth deep house. the best stuff ever. i think he plays a bit rougher house nowadays. as a producer he is the daddy, and the granddaddy. he, shep pettibone, walter gibbons & jellybean benitez practicly invented the remix. and from disco to downtempo to house to even his dabs in techno have been topnotch stuff

couldnt have said it better myself...were it not for innovators like him, mancuso, grasso and knuckles the scene would not be what it is today.

Listening to his Essential Mix every month... Very good selection of music... not very good for skills but w/e... a legend

that looks like a hell of a line up


haven't seen him, but would love to hehehe...

not very good skills?
he's playing for 4 hours in the annexe at Nation (Creams old venue) tomorrow night, so I'm pretty sure we're gonna get the whole thing.
Saw him at the warehouse project a month or so ago and he was just booting out quality techno, finished on joris voorn - incident, was fucking mental

the man who mixed depeche mode's strongest record- violator. respect

seen him a few years back, got my booty shaking proper, he focused on disco in that particular set. as others said - legendary

hmmm anyone have any mixes of his or know where I could get some? I of course know the name simply because he's a legend but I've never actually heard anything from him

I'm glad someone here still remembers. He produced and launched Madonna's career into stardom. The rest is history.

Francois has mixed more records than you've had hot dinners, he's an absolute legend. I love him.
