About Me


Giovanni Raniolo aka "Jitzu" was born in 1980 at Ragusa, Italy. He starts playing the piano at the age of 6, soon after he dedicates himself in studying other instruments: electric guitar, bass and drums. From 12 until 17 he plays guitar, bass and drums in various bands; his passion though remains the composition. At the age of 18 he discovers electronic music and it is love at first sight. He transfers at Bologna to study at Dams (music section) where he prepares his thesis on electronic music and the subculture, finishes his studies of home recording and digital recording techniques at the Bologna Accademy and starts composing electronic music tracks that will afterwards be part of an auto-produced album called "Motion's Sequel" (2003). He works as an sound engineer at the recording and mixing of various emerging groups; at the same time he starts to get interested in the world of Djing. At January 11 2007 is released his debut ep with Autist Records (Berlin): "Idiot Savant", with 4 tracks one of which is composed in collaboration with Sire_g. The ep is placed very well in the minimal Tech chart of junodownload reaching quickly the first position. From here comes to life his real career as a producer.
