Real name: FranKie Mancuso
Electronic Dance Music Techno / House project based in Rome, ItalyFrankie Mancuso pianist and arranger, born in Florence in December 1980, starts his career as a musician in Rome in 2006 composing short songs for radio, some soundtracks for the theater and some short films. His studies when he was young at the “Luigi Cherubini” conservatory in Florence and the following interests for electronic production let him to join together two apparently different worlds: classic music and dance music. His orchestral works and piano skills catch the interest of some djs of the Roman night scene who involved him in many remix projects, bootlegs and new productions. He worked his way up through pop music composing original tracks, remakes and theme songs for various events all around Italy until 2011, when he met Manuel Rotondo and Kevin Delite, that deeply marked Frankie’s musical world. Productions with Manuel Rotondo, well-known roman dj-producer who prefers Techno/House sounds, represent that musical fusion between pentagram music and waveform music that he was searching for. Musical horizons get larger with the melodic presence of Kevin Delite, a roman historical vocalist. This trio made its first production together in 2012 with the single “Played a trip (gotta a feeling)” released by Oh No You Didn’t! (NY) and by KULT Records in 2013. Chris Bekker, resident dj at GMF in Berlin, is one of the remixer of this track.
