Coming from a background rich in music and culture, it is no wonder that
Frankie Feliciano has become one of the house music community's most
respected denizens. Frankie was raised in home filled with music, his
grandfather was a musician in Puerto Rico and his father regularly plays and
sings in bands in New York. As an adolescent, Frankie was exposed to and
enthralled by the vibrant hip-hop culture that was exploding all over New
York City, and he soon convinced his parents to buy him some DJ gear. Here
then, was the genesis of Frankie's DJ career.a fourteen year old, cutting,
scratching and mimicking what he heard at block parties and on underground
hip-hop radio shows.
A couple of years later, Frankie was introduced to house music through his
older cousins who were regulars at the famed Paradise Garage. His first
clubgoing experience was at Hearthrobs's, with the resident being a then
relatively unknown 'Little Louie' Vega. As Frankie continued to develop as a
DJ and a producer, he also was inspired by house giants such as Shep
Pettibone, Tony Humphries and Timmy Regisford.
After a brief stint working in promotions at Strictly Rhythm Records in
1990, he moved into DJ'ing and producing full time, with his first serious
paid gig at none other than the famous Ministry Of Sound in London. He has
since gone on to play at renowned parties all over the world, from Angels Of
Love in Italy, to Dance Ritual and Shelter in NYC.
Frankie is a superb DJ, with brilliant programming and technical skills. He
is also an amazing producer whose productions have garnered him acclaim for
years. He's produced such gems as "Don't Ever Give Up" ,"Missing You" and
achingly beautiful remixes of anthems such as "Ain't No Running Away" (Paula
Ralph), "Father" (Kenny Bobien) numerous others on Masters At Work, and King
Street Records. Now with his own record company, Ricanstruction Label,
Frankie is swiftly advancing on his musical journey, crossing borders and
reaching new heights.
