About Me

Myspace Layouts - Myspace Editor

Born as the son of two classical musicians (an Indian father and a Brazilian mother, both pianists), Vienna-based Sergio was always exposed to the inspirational sounds of various classical composers, Jazz, Soul and Brazilian music. After first beginning to play the drums at an early age, he soon changed to playing the keyboards and producing music with the help of an old PC and a synthesizer. Now at the age of 30, he is a renowned producer, writer and DJ. He has released House-records with some of the most prolific labels in the dance-music industry, such as Defected, Swing City, Tenor, Slip N Slide, Credence, and many others. He has produced and remixed for such pop-giants as Tom Jones, Vanessa Amorosi, Tina Turner, Enrique Iglesias, Gloria Gaynor and Giorgio Moroder, just to name a few. He produced Kylie Minogue´s No.1 hit “Spinning Around” with 7th District and long time-partner Greg “G” Usek, the record that is known to have re-launched her career. While being one half of 7th District for many years, he produced and wrote many club-anthems like “What A Night”, “Burnin”, or “Destiny” and was presented the AMADEUS music award as best producer. His more recent projects, Scientific Soul and G.L.O.W. have brought Sergio the attention of the worlds leading DJs. Together with Hanna Hais he created a true anthem in “Rosa Nova”, a record that can be heard in the best clubs, worldwide. His remixes for Havana Funk and Soul Central were played by the hottest jocks. The club anthems "Most Precious Love", by Blaze, "The Way You Love Me", by Ron Hall & The Muthafunkaz and most recently Bob Sinclar's huge worlwide anthem "World Hold On" all got Sergio's trademark workover. 2007 is set to be a great year for Sergio. With his remixes for Junior Jack (PIAS/Defected) and James Kakande (Peppermint Jam UK/AATW) being released soon, and his own tune with Mitomi Tokoto "That Piano Track" having reached the No.1 spot of the most important Japanese dance charts, the demand for his work is reaching a peak. This year will also see collabs with partners like Danny Marquez, Oliver Lang, DJ Pippi and many others. As a DJ, Sergio will continue to use his musical craftsmanship to ensure the high quality of his sets, while making sure that the floor is on fire. He is travelling the world and has already played in such clubs as: Privilege, Space, El Divino (all in Ibiza), Kaufleuten (Zurich), Club Chi (Dubai), Likwid (Bahrein), Neighbourhood (London), Amika & Privee (both Miami), China Lounge (Hamburg), Volksgarten (Vienna), only to name a few. He also hosts his own night, the bi-monthly "Sergio Flores Session" in one of Vienna's in-spots, the Passage club.
