Fred Giannelli
Real Name:
Fred Giannelli
Profile:
Born in Boston, Fred Giannelli began experimenting with electronics in the late '70s as Turning Tranz, but a 1984 meeting with Psychic TV's Genesis P. Orridge at his local radio station changed his direction. By 1988, Giannelli was part of the group, working on Techno Acid Beat and Kondole. He gradually separated himself from Psychic TV and began working on the Plus 8 label with Richie Hawtin as Spawn. Under the Plus 8 banner, he later formed the Telepathic label for his own industrial/techno recordings as the Acid Didj, Giannelli, Deneuve and Mazdaratti (which are collected on Telepathic's Telepathic Wisdom, Vol. 1.)

Reviews & Discussion
Fred is a brilliant techno producer and live act. His discography is far more comprehensive than listed in here, but not even he himself has a comprehensive release list of all his recordings. While his former band Psychic TV is said to have invented the term and the style "acid house" then this is Fred´s work. His releases do not seem to get boring or repeat themselves, also there´s a huge list of collaborations he´s done (r. hawtin, c. lekebusch, just to name a few). and - for me - the most important point of all: fred shows much humour, in real life as well as in his releases. a highlight surely was his release "R. U. Xperienced" as Careese & Sickmob, where he covered the Jimi Hendrix classic. The vocals were done by a little girl (one of the daughters of Genesis P-Orridge), and now imagine this girl voice singing: "Are you experienced? Have you ever been experienced? Well i am." - That´s what i meant with humour and thats what makes Fred so great.
