Franz Tornado

Franz Tornado (real name: Gianni Coraini, later given to Frederico Rimonti) is a eurobeat (originating from Italo disco) vocalist and one of the most well-known names on "HI-NRG Attack", an Italian record label. (The discussion hereforth references the latter, Mr. Rimonti) His ultra-speedy, energetic and quite crazy songs, especially his super-smash hit, Bandolero Commanchero, have charmed many eurobeat fans.

He and Bazooka Girl form a striking duo, and they have produced many great songs together. HI-NRG Attack was created in the year 1994 and specializes in 'happy' and plain crazy songs that generally do not have any sense, whatsoever.

Gianni Coriani has worked under many other aliases, including DJ NRG, KL Jones, Alvin, Maltese, Ric Fellini, Jeff Driller, Gordon Jim, Franz Tornado, Ken Laszlo, Fancy, Boysband, Francis Cooper, Danny Keith, Captain America, Otello, Maxx Ducati, Jackie 'O, Jean Corraine, J. Corraine, and Ken Hunter. Frederico Rimonti has used a select few of those names, more prominently using Franz Tornado, Jeff Driller, and Francis Cooper. Franz is also quite common under the name Mad Cow.
