About the Artist

Frank Sinutre is an electronic project born in 2011 in Mantova (Italy) that uses home made electronic instruments as well as traditional ones and algorithmic visual show . It is formed by Isi Pavanelli (ReactaBOX, synth, beat maker, Drummabox, vocoder) and Michele K. Menghinez (guitar, bass, lap steel guitar, vocals, drums, percussion). Since the beginning they played homemade electronic instruments such as Reactabox (inspired by the famous Reactable, it consists of a MIDI controller where rhythmic loops, melody sequences and effects are triggered and controlled through mysterious cubes placed and moved upon a special interactive screen) and Drummabox (an acoustic drum machine based on Arduino). During live performances they also use traditional instruments (guitar, looping, bass, synth, lap steel guitar) and an home-made algorithmic visual show that consists of a flow of images processed and re-elaborated through the audio signal. Frank Sinutre released 4 studio albums and played in more than 350 live performances across Italy and Europe. In 2012 they released the first album “La Colpa della Leonessa Soundtrack”, a Soundtrack for the theatre play “La colpa della Leonessa”, directed by Anna Volpi and presented at “Festival de Teatro Social” in Valencia. Even the live-equipment is renewed: they built a second ReactaBOX more performing. In March 2014 they realized a second album “Musique pour les Poissons” released by the New York label “System Recordings”. The album was released in conjunction and paired with the book: “Racconti per Pesci del Mare d'Aria”. The videomaker Giovanni Tutti directed two videoclips of the single tracks of the album: “Someone's Dub” (a stop-motion video) and the cover “Oye Como Va”. In May 2017 Frank Sinutre reached crowd funding target for the realization of the third reactabox (Reactabox-3 a new midi experience). 19th May 2017 their third album "The Boy Who Believed He Could Fly" has been released by the italian label New Model Label. From this third album, Giovanni Tutti realized two stop motion videos of the single tracks “Driving Thru a City by Night” and “Sunset with Sunrise”. About “Sunset with Sunrise”, seven djs and producers from different parts of the world remixed it and these seven remixes have been included in an album “Sunset with Sunrise Remixes”, released by New Model Label in December 2018. In July 17th 2020 New Model Label released the first single track of their fourth studio album. Both the track and the album are called “200.000.000 Steps”. Giovanni Tutti directed the video of this song. The album was released in September 2020 and in February 12th 2022 a second single track “Let This Sound Sing” with a new psychedelic video by Giovanni Tutti; and a third one “Franco Cerca Un'Ora” directed by Giovanni Tutti. In November 25th 2023 Giovanni Tutti realized the fourth single track video for this album: “God Bless Big Bang”. On September 1st 2024, “Under This Kind of Light” was released, accompanied by a video created entirely through artificial intelligence, directed and edited by Giovanni Tutti. The track was released as a single by the label TheDustRealm Music. On December 31, a new single track called “Propositi per il Nuovo Anno Galattico “ has been released. The song, based on a lyrics by astrophysicist and science communicator Filippo Bonaventura, focuses on the concept of the galactic year and will be part of the Frank Sinutre's fifth album. This song is published by TheDustRealm Music, videoclip directed by Giovanni Tutti. On December 19, 2025, the album “Propositi per il Nuovo Anno Galattico” finally sees the light.
