ARTIST BIOAdam J. Colosimo is an Australian producer, songwriter, and DJ whose career in electronic music stretches back to the late 1990s. He began producing under the moniker Phat Elvis, crafting original tracks and underground white-label bootlegs using Acid Pro and Sound Forge. By 2002, his bootleg of Regurgitator’s Song Formerly Known As had become a staple in the Australian club circuit, earning him recognition in the local scene.
Throughout the 2000s, Adam was an active presence in Melbourne’s nightlife, DJing at clubs such as Q Bar, Motel and Saratoga, and holding a residency at the 21st Century Dance Club in Frankston. His dynamic sets and inventive remixes earned him a strong reputation on the decks, complementing his growing success as a producer.
In 2005, Adam founded Tekinika Records in Melbourne, releasing compilations and promotional remixes that showcased his versatility as a producer. His 2006 rework of Samantha Fox’s Naughty Girls proved another crowd favorite, further cementing his reputation for inventive and high-energy reinterpretations.
As his career evolved in the late 2000s, Adam expanded his focus to songwriting and collaboration, working with major-label Australian artists such as Dean Geyer (Sony) and Laura Knight (EMI). His 2011 release Believe in Love, sung by Kim Chandler, reached the semi-finals of the International Songwriting Contest, later receiving remixes from UK DJ/producer Bitrocka and US duo Mr. Mig and Mike Rizzo.
After an eight-year hiatus, Adam returned in the early 2020s with a fresh wave of EDM and pop productions, working alongside emerging vocalists and producers. In 2025, he embraced AI-assisted production, recognizing its power to streamline the creative process and expand sonic possibilities. Since then, he has released a steady stream of polished, commercially driven dance tracks, rapidly growing a global following with his signature blend of rich melodies, cutting-edge production, and undeniable energy.
With decades of experience both behind the decks and in the studio, Adam J. Colosimo continues to push boundaries — blending tradition, technology, and creativity to craft dance music built for the future.
