Deorro

Born as Erick Orrosquieta on 30 August 1991, Deorro began his music career DJ-ing at local gigs in his hometown of Los Angeles, California. When he reached age 17 he started to continually produce his own music. In 2012 he remixed “Make Some Noise” originally by DJ/ Producer Chuckie, who had requested Deorro to do the remix. The remix made its way to the Top 50 list by Beatport. The following year he released a single via Hardwell’s Revealed Recordings entitled “Yee.” The single charted all across Europe, hitting number 33 in Austria, 74 in France, 62 in Germany, and 8 in Belgium.

In 2014 Deorro released a three singles: “Flashlight” which charted in Belgium (peaking at number 54), “Five Hours” which charted in seven countries, including Belgium, France and Germany and “Rambo” which features a collaboration with J-Trick and charted in France. In May 2014 Deorro made an announcement that he would be pulling back on his DJ-ing to concentrate on producing and expanding his label, PandaFunk. Despite this, in the fall of 2014 Deorro hit number 19 for the award for highest new entry on the 'DJmag top 100 DJs 2014' contest. Because of this award, he performed at the DJ Mag event in Amsterdam in the Netherlands.

At the tender age of 16 Rosado had been singing and producing songs, and utilising the music and social media site MySpace to find an audience for his music. In 2007 Rosado released his first single “Sexo Fuera del Planeta” which before long gained the singer thousands of followers on numerous social media sites. Due to this online pubic appeal, Rosado became known to radio and music industry executives who utilised the singer’s talents on other artists’ records.

In 2009 came Rosado’s debut album “El Talento del Bloque” which became popular in a very short period of time largely due to the collaborative singles “Su Hija Me Gusta”, “Ella No Es Facil” and “Traime a Tu Amiga”. Shortly after came the highly popular single “Pa Romper la Discoteca” with Daddy Yankee and Yomo, which didn’t feature on the singer’s debut.

Three years later in 2012 Rosado returned with his sophomore release “TMPR” The Most Powerful Rookie”. The album had five hit singles including the first “Feel the Rhythm” and glorified Farruko’s reputation as a talented pop and reggaeton singer. The album was ultimately nominated for a Latin Grammy the same year. Rosado’s subsequent album “Farruka Presenta los Menores” (2014) featuring a host of collaborations, expands the musician’s genre appeal with fusions into electro, neo-soul and funk.
