JOY KITIKONTI
Underground nature
Musician, dj and producer: Joy Kitikonti is a polyhedric artist with several discographic successes, important partnerships and awards in his background. All these experiences made him the mature artist of today. We can say he’s “Natural born artist”. His innate talent, his creativity and strong will made him especially known for his mood and for his inspiration. But Joy is always the reserved and quiet person he was before and he doesn’t like talking too much about himself or boasting about his success, because he gives in charge to the music the power to tell his story.The dj is a chef, that can mix sounds, riffs, cool bass effects, drums, percussions … at the desks he “cooks” and everytime he produces a different and original set: you can give the same records to another dj and the result will always be different.“When the dj plays his music, he feels like a writer: and when he plays he always shows something about his soul, his mind and his heart. Sounds are like words and you can combine them in thousands of different ways and sometimes you can’t control them. Playing for me is a necessity. Even if Electronic Music needn’t classical instruments and scores, it offers the same possibilities of other genres.”His own life is a mix: a combination of sounds, moods, styles, places, images. The “contamination” is the key to re-invent and to live your life with your personal style, to escape the banality and the danger of something already seen and already heard. His “hand” is always perceivable in his productions.Joy Kitikonti was born on 19th January 1970 in Tuscany. He felt immediately a great passion for music when he was young, probably influenced by his father, a musician during 60ies. His career began in 1984, he was a self taught musician, skilful with the battery and percussion instruments. In 1996 he became a member of Media Records. Here he realized important productions, a lot of remix and numerous collaborations with djs.His underground vocation comes from those boundary territories, where music means fun, not just money, where friendship among the artists goes further than the interests of the music industry, where you can find in your hands some white labels, dreamt by the records shops, and where new ideas and moods are generated by the artists’ exchange and partnerships. Joy belongs to that world where, if we can use the espression… vanguards often bornJoy is A&R for Footloversmusic, Client-rec, Metempsicosi rec, Movment rec and producer for the labels of Mauro Picotto, Marco Carola, Danilo Vigorito, Markantonio, Paco Osuna and UVDOG rec from San Francisco.www.joykitikonti.com www.myspace.com/kitikonti www.footloversmusic.com
