tA MIXTAPE 40 | JANE FITZ by Tropical Animals

For our 40th tA MIXTAPE, we are happy to invite JANE FITZ!

"Most of Fitz's fans know her for a deep and cosmic sound defined by excellent track selections, but her style is always changing. Since she was a teenager, she's loved and played everything from soul to trip-hop to techno to ambient, and she thinks of her sound today as a culmination of her many influences over the years. It's also the result of the personal experiences she's had, from Body & Soul parties in New York to psytrance raves in Jakarta to festivals like rural in Japan and Freerotation in Wales, both of which are proud to have her as a regular"

She wrote for use some words about this mix:

"Every track on this mix was made in Italy during the early to mid 90s, mostly, but not exclusively, from the north. A lot of it is from Toscana, home of Tropical Animals. It’s my tribute to a specific fluid and entrancing music that has shaped my sound as a DJ for the past eight years or so. Not as well known Italo, Cosmic, minimalism, deep house, or even Italy’s psychedelic rock, but it’s a sound that brings in elements all of these. But this sound is something different - dynamic, imaginative and full of drama. It’s hard to mix, because most of the records have long, twisting intros and the tracks don’t stop changing and evolving until the very last bars. It doesn’t play by the rules. Progressive, yes. Trance, techno, house? Maybe a little bit of all. To me, it’s simply the unmistakeable sound of Italy, the sound I love"

We love you Jane and this is a magical pearl in exclusive for Tropical Animals!
