Metroline Limited Podcast 06 Mixed By Rio Padice AKA Ragga Fonda

Fresh from releasing some of the hottest music of the last few weeks, the double chapter Twin Peaks EP on our own Metroline Limited and the Horacio EP on Raum Music with fellow neapolitan artist, Massi DL, Rio Padice delivers an equally stunning mix for the 6th installment of our podcast series. Spanning across 21 traclks, the mix features many of Rio's own productions, unreleased tracks from promos and demos that the artist got given by fellow friends and uo and coming producers and a few old house and techno classic jems that Rio dug out from his collection especially for this mix. Versatile artist, he is mainly a designer. Dario di Pace was born in Naples in 1983. He has attended several art schools and he is about to complete his degree in stage-design. Always interested in arts, he decided to get into music in 2006, when he bought on-purpose software and created an art studio in his apartment where he also shows some of his works like sceneries and comics in indian ink. His tracks were mainly conceived for live performances, but later his contacts with some net labels brought in ideas for new projects. He started with an initial sound deep- tech, later enriched by funky and minimal influences. His debut as composer was in January 2007 on a new net label from Milan, ExM records, with his very first work Japanese Airone. During that year he has collaborated also with Minisketch and Uvdog releasing digital tracks. In December 2008 he published his first vinyl Ep on Mosaiko Musik called CLB, played by Jeff Samuel and Anderson Noise who putted it in a released mix for the compilation by La Terraza Bcn (Circle Music). His second vinyl was for him the turning point. The Gosh! Ep released on June 2008 has been putted in most important tracklist played around the world as Richie Hawtin’s. During the summer time he took a period in wich he started to study other subgenres of electronic music as dub, housy, deep and jazzy thinking about his next projects as FU8 Ensamble and Ragga Fonda. As this new nick he published on Mosaiko Limited in September 2008 a new 12” called “Memories” Ep featuring a brazilian vocalist Luisa De Abreu. At the present he is working for Mutekki Media, Metroline Ltd, Welt Sounds and Kina Music.
