Frédéric Holyszewski (Paris, 1970), also known as Dado and Deedrah, is a French music producer mostly known for psytrance projects such as Deedrah, Transwave, and Synthetic.
Biography
[edit | edit source]Holyszewski learned classical music since his childhood, playing piano and transverse flute, yet wanted to be a biology teacher. He got a master's degree in biology and geology (PARIS 6) but stopped his studies when he was 25 years old to produce music.[1][2]
In 1994, with Christophe Drouillet aka Absolum, Holyszewski formed psytrance group Transwave. In 1996 they released debut album Helium, which received a 4* review in Muzik magazine. The duo made an impact on the genre, in particular for their live performances, and by 1997 had become known as "scene stalwarts".[3][4]
Holyszewski has been releasing trance productions under the name Deedrah since 1995, including albums such as Self Oscillation in 1997 and Reload in 2001. The latter received a positive review in Muzik magazine caveated by a hint of "monotony" in the music. He also releases house tracks under the name of Federico Baltimore.[5][6] In 2004 a remix of his track "Reload" was featured on the soundtrack of the movie Man on Fire.[7] Holyszewski also composes music for PlayStation video games, for example Gran Turismo 4 in 2004 which featured two of his tracks under the "Synthetic" alias.[5][8]
