* BIO
Frank Tide is Francesco D'Este, a student and IT technician from Venice, Italy.
He began his musical activities back in 1998, when he started playing bass and drums in metal bands like: Occasus, 737, Warmonger.
In the meanwhile, he was constantly using electronic gear as a support for his musical learning. Finally he started to produce his first simple tracks using old MIDI sequencers.
After some years spent experimenting weird ambient and crappy dance stuff, he turned the production to the next level,approaching to trance and progressive music.
He released his first signed tracks in 2006.
During the same year he founded together with Ilich Molin and Wim Broersma the X-Tence / Mooka production team . The success of such project was witnessed by remixes placed on Billboard's Hot Dance Club Play (Amuka - I Want More, My Man) and top ten progressive House on Beatport. .Moreover dj's like Markus Shossow, Ernesto and Sebastian and Miss Nine, James Grant supported the project reviewing & playing various mixes.
Frank Tide presents "Convolve", his first uplifting trance release on Well Mixed Records.
X-Tence is on Thrive Mix 3! Out 16.1.07!
