Music Producer, Influencer and Audio & Video Consultant

I was raised in a very diverse area of the Twin Cites in Saint Paul, Minnesota’s Payne/Phalen Lower Eastside Neighborhood.

As a child I attended East Consolidated Elementary School (ECON) now known as Bruce Vento Elementary School. My parents purchased my late Grandparents home in the Payne/Phalen Neighborhood when I was around nine years old and they still live here to this day.

I’ve lived in many areas of the state over the years such as Maplewood, Woodbury and Bloomington until I purchased a home in Buffalo, Minnesota back in 2017.

I am a CNC Machinist by Trade . As a teenager I worked as an Inspector for an Aluminum Foundry and later attended Trade school for CNC Machining after graduating high school from North Saint Paul High back in 1995.

During this time period I joined a Funk/R&B band called “SWAV” as a Sound Technician, Rapper and backup drummer. I discovered my true passion for music, production and performing at this time while being mentored by the late Reggie Wagner: (AKA Sarge), Robert Star, Bobbie Davis: (AKA B-Ray), Tricky, Shay and many others…

After graduating high school I wanted to join the Armed Services. I was unable to do this because of a color blindness condition I did not know about, and discovering this after successfully completing the Written and physical portion of the (ASVAB) test while attending (MEPS) twice to join the armed services.

I have taken on multiple roles throughout the years and gathered experience in many different career fields including…

Website Design and Computer Repair, Sales, CNC Machining, Precision Grinding, Tool and Die Technology, Cylindrical Machining of OD/ID’s and Basic Programming Using Fanuc and Kel-Poly Point Mapping and Studer Picto-gramming applications , I also have CMM Training and have worked in medical field machining Carbon Coded Mechanical Heart Valves and heart stents. I am very advanced in Computer Technology including Networking, Machine Building and Repair, Software Recovery and Troubleshooting. I’ve also done Data Storage Management and Installation.

I have a very strong passion for music and all aspects of sound creation. This includes engineering, production, writing and performing music. I have worked with several artists in multiple countries and locally to produce my latest EP Album “Inception of III”. I am currently building and “modding” custom arcade cabinets with Retro Games and using various Android and Linux software applications.

I come from a big family and my ansestors are of Italian Decent. My Great Grandfather immigrated to New York City around 1880 from Sicily. his name was Anthony J. Casale of whom I am directly named after. (Holding me in the photo)

He decided to try a life in the Midwest for more opportunities, less crowding and decided to sneak into a trains box car for this journey. After successfully reaching Minnesota, he assimilated to Saint Paul, Minnesota’s Swede Hollow neighborhood back in the early 1900’s.

I was raised near Swede Hollow in Saint Paul’s Lower Eastside Payne/ Phalen neighborhood and this where me and my two brothers grew up. My folks and most of my family still live in this neighborhood to this day.

I currently live in Buffalo, MN. I am married with one daughter.
