Trixie oh Trixie oh Farina oh Rago


Trixie. I don't know anything at all about this particular release, and I just made the label above. There are references to this song on the internet, but only in playlists. I don't know the artists behind it, the release year, the label, or if this is even the correct title.

I did find another release by some Trixie, produced by Giorgio Farina and two other guys who haven't done much else that I recognize. Maybe it's the same Trixie, I haven't heard both songs so I can't compare, but lets just say it is Giorgio Farina. As you probably know he's been a part of a lot of good stuff: 'Lectric Workers, Atelier Folie, Wanexa, and Deca Dance.

While I think this track is okay, I'm more posting it because I know nothing about it, rather than feeling like it's an important musical gift to the world.

But it's still good, in its own way (now I feel guilty for not showing it enough love). The synth chords in the beginning are pretty nice. And the "muchas gracias" is pretty sweet, and sounds honest.

It's like this Latin-Italo-Summer-Fest in your ears. Mmm.

Trixie - Senorita (12inch version)

But since we're one the subject, I wanted to post this highly dramatic song by Giorgio Farina's Deca Dance project, which was also produced by Francesco Rago, his partner on the majority of his quality releases (see list below).

For some reason, I feel this song sounds so much like a B-side. Actually, it sounds like an excellent B-side. a much much better track that was overshadowed by the A-side. (but this is the A-side, so I'm just babbling here)

Deca Dance - On and On (Fears Keep On)
Listen / Buy: GEMM / eBay / Amazon.com

I love this track. It rolls on so nicely, and the production is really good.



I expect you've heard the other stuff by Farina & Rago:

Expansives - 'Life With You'
'Lectric Workers - 'Robot Is Systematic'
Wanexa - 'The Man From Colours'
Atelier Folie - 'No Rhyme, No Reason'
and Peter Richard's 'Walking In The Neon'

If you haven't, do it. Now.

It's incredible you keep getting better and better on this blog. Must be all the northern lights.

Haha, thanks man! Glad you're liking the songs. Northern lights and sleet up my nose.
