My son does a lot of DJing in his spare time and thought highly of this man. He has posted a tribute to him of Facebook. Can't say I'd heard of him but after a half hour's lecture from my son, I feel I could go on Mastermind and get a score of 10 at least lol

FB has been great today with all the tributes, I've been listening to them for much of the day.

Got snogged once by a total stranger at a Universe rave while he was playing, even though I'm not familiar with his music, I'll always remember that night!
RIP Frankie.
