FOOZAK & FRANKIE B

FoOz and Franki B are 2 kenyan based Dj's who share one passion that define their lives: Electronic Dance Music. The duo formed back in 2009 recording their first mix tape together dubbed “A December in Diani”. The mix tape was a memoir of their true love for the sweet melodic sound of progressive house music. It was a hit amongst the Kenyan ravers at the time and was critically acclaimed by some of the best Kenyan Dj's. Foozak and Franki B finally decided to join forces as a duo in 2011 and went back to Diani to play their first gig as a 6am duo at ULTRAVIOLET 2011. Leaving nothing short of a smiling crowd, this young duo is definitely a talent to look out for as they are also venturing into production by teaming up with upcoming producer Aquila (Meats). Look out for crunchy edits and remixes exclusively for their live sets.
