A special mix from one of the minds behind our third record, so welcome on board @jacopolatini .

Jacopo also known as Jackie, is the co-founder of Taboo Traxx. Now based in Berlin, he continues to hone his profound sound with many releases last year and a lot of new projects coming out in 2021.
He can frequently be found playing his extensive artillery of records at various locations in his native country, or the new city he calls home. Growing up in Bologna played a pivotal role in Jackie's acquired taste in music, surrounded by the surgence of deep house in Italy, he managed to absorb the deep and emotive sound. Something which he is now able to interpret and reflect within his own productions, however maintaining a modern, yet still moving twist.
He has found his element in recent times in the German capital, surrounding himself with creative artists where he can bounce his positive energy and ideas, introducing his personal workflow, whilst simultaneously learning from others. Jacopo sets his sights firmly on a year of pushing his productions, via his own Taboo imprint, and already in the pipeline of Mood Waves.
