A native of the Republic of Panama, Francisco “Franco” Choy, better known in the music world as “djFRANCO_The Latin SENSATION.”
With over 20 years of experience, this natural born Latino, discovers his passion for music at an early age. He took over his father’s wide-ranging collection of record albums which were a source of inspiration to him. By this, he acquired many international musical influences that helped him to grow in his local hometown in the DJ world.
He started his first business endeavor by recording mix tapes for local taxis and busses around the city of Panama. While working on this, he was noticed and given an opportunity to work in a local club “Daiquiri Pub Bar”, where he remained the resident DJ. He was also invited as guest DJ in several local radio stations, which was a key to his growth. Popular local radio stations in became acquainted with DJ Franco’s style.
Always in pursuit of new opportunities, he moves out of Panama and into the US relocating himself to Orlando, Florida. This new “state side “experience in combination with his native “Latin flavor,” led him to create his very own style, the blending of two worlds. “La Mezcla EXPLOSIVA,” displays his passion to music of all genres. He fuses salsa, merengue, bachata, dembow, reggae and reggaetón to the beats of disco, hip hop, house, freestyle, trap and bass. DJ Franco’s open format style of mixing is excitable and entertaining to crowds of all origins.
DJ Franco currently resides in Atlanta, GA, where he engages in radio, clubs, concerts, corporate and private events throughout the city.
