FRANCIS, aka SSSLO, is a producer, DJ, and one half of dub/psych/dance outfit, CUERPOS. Based in St. John’s, NL, Francis draws influence from his upbringing in Newfoundland and his Chilean roots. His production style is constantly evolving but is strongly influenced by Latin and Caribbean music, as well as contemporary electronic music. Francis’ DJ sets are varied and can range anywhere from dub-tinged house and techno to global club sounds. While his taste is eclectic, there is a through-line: connecting the dots between the Latin diaspora in contemporary electronic music.
