..... THE BASS PIRATES .....
FRANKIE T
First and foremost an enthusiast to all that is house, Frankie is one of Toronto’s most promising up and coming DJ’s. Raised in Toronto, he was immediately immersed into a diverse, and very individualistic culture. When he was 8 years old he was given his first musical instrument, the bass guitar, and immediately knew he was going to be doing something with music in his future. By his mid teens he had continued to grow and grasp new concepts into music, and studied music theory both in and out of the classroom environment, developing a deep love of complex rhythms and nuances, and specifically gained interest in jazz and punk rock. One should take notice at his ability to pursue and make ideas become reality- 50 Shades of Red, a punk rock quintet influenced heavily by bands such as the Distillers, Bad Religion, Anti Flag, and bands not found in mainstream culture, (Frankie’s First band) ended up being one his most successful ventures, playing all of Toronto’s hottest rock clubs including The Big Bop, The Docks, Koolhaus just to name a few- by the ripe age of 16. In such a performer was born, and Frankie has been playing live shows ever since, whether as a bass player, or DJ in the Toronto club circuit.
With his integral blends of techno and tech house influences, Frankie T knows how to work a crowd. Having worked the Toronto bar/ lounge circuit, Frankie is eager and ready to move on to the bigger stage. Being in close environments with DJ’s Nathan Barato, Cam Maxwell, George William, El Duran, Paranoid Jack, Carlo Lio, Anas Attia and others - just to name a few- he has quickly progressed in the electronic music community.
Frankie is not a rookie in the music industry, he works as a full time producer and Recording Engineer, as well as a touring musician, he knows what to do on the decks, how to work a crowd and to get them excited.
Currently Frankie has merged together with Kurtis Pro-Tek, another progressing tech house dj coming from a well established gigging background; including international locations in Punta Cana and the Dominican republic; to form the Bass Pirates duo in late 2008. The two of them have been quickly gaining a reputation for ripping up dancefloors all over the College street lounge circuit, and are quickly becoming a strong tech house entity in Toronto.
KURTIS PRO-TEK
As 11 year veteran in the industry Kurtis has taken in many different sounds, musical styles and techniques over the years. Starting as a high school dance DJ that toured North & South Ontario when working for one of the top music entertainment companies,Ace Music Services, in Thunder Bay Ontario. Shortly after he found himself Djing at Thunder Bay’s premier alternative life styles bars, The Backstreet & The Voodoo Lounge at the early age of 15 years old. Pro-TeK very shortly began his take over by become the resident DJ in all the major house & mainstream bars in the city opening for such artists are Default, Snow, Sydney Blu and De-koze and others. Over the last five years Kurtis has been busy DJing shows that feature Manzone & Strong, Carlo Lio, Nathan Barato, Max Power, Frankie T, City & Mixxy, Iron Mike, Julien Loreto, DJ Ruckus, RandomDoug, DJ TLA and list goes on. He is probably best known around Toronto for the event "House Your Body" That was located out of Eddies On Collage with his event partner DJ Mike Montana. Pro-Tek has finally settled in with new sound enforcer Dj Frankie T, to make The Bass Pirates and for the duo the sailing looks clear here. |
