Frank J. Freda was born on January 28, 1971 in Mineola, NY. Over the years, Frank’s love of music deepened and his tastes expanded to many different genres. In the early 80s it was mostly top 40 from 95.5 WPLJ and Z-100. MTV also played a large role in introducing him to many new artists that would influence him forever. Bands like Depeche Mode, Duran Duran, Peter Gabriel, The Cure and Tears For Fears were in rotation on television and radio, but their full impact wouldn’t be realized until years later. His first interest in synthesizers came courtesy of Genesis. Songs like “Man On The Corner” hit a nerve and sparked a new interest in music. It was around this time that his parents bought him his first Casio keyboard. Frank started out by learning the lead vocal melodies of his favorite songs. Slowly, he began to pick up chord progressions and started playing his own original melodies as well.
In the middle of the decade he became more interested in classic rock including Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd. Their lush arrangements and production quality were very inspirational. He became more and more interested in how different instruments blended together and how a producer could play a pivotal role in the overall sound of an album. It was also at this time that Frank began writing poetry. Most were either about romantic love or teenage angst. By the end of the 80s, Frank was listening to a wide variety of music, but Metallica and Def Leppard topped the list at this time. For his high school graduation, his parents gave him a more formidable Casio and continued to encourage his interest in music.
