Natale Caliendo

Electronic Press Kit

From the age of 5, Natale Caliendo has become a growing familiar in the electrionic music genre, consistantly displaying a passionate love for the piano and the synthesizer. He first began developing his skills using nothing more than a handheld tape recorder and an acoustic piano to record practice sessions. Once these sessions became a daily ritual, his talent had begun to surface. He soon took the next step, and acquired more sophisticated production tools, such as digital mixers, filters, and musical interface software. He improved his techniques by mastering both the basic applications and the apprehensive mechanics of music theory. At the age of 20, he eagerly started his own lab and studio, allowing him to explore new approaches to recording, applying styles and overtures that soon transformed the young novice into a master. His drive for creation was fueled both by the Italian-American heritage strongly rooted into his upbringing, and the accomplishments of his father, who's own compassion for their sacred heritage won his indoctrination into the Italian-American National Hall of Fame. Those two motivations soon became the catalysts for the playing styles and subliminal orchestrations that has successfully made Natale such a free range enigma. With his variety of masterpieces reaching into genres far beyond the new age, trance and goth audiences, Natale's work has been recognized internationally for it's hypnotic and sensual overtones. Natale describes his music as being "the byproduct of a young Italian's lifelong ego trip."
