About Ricardo Baez:
Florence’s very own tastemaker Ricardo Baez has always been immersed in music. On one hand, he had his Italian father's extensive collection of old blues and jazz records. On the other hand, the 80’s pop cassettes his Venezuelan mother used as the soundtrack for her dance classes.

This melting pot gives Baez a different way to make his musical mark, as shown at his legendary party Tropical Animals in Florence, which has been running weekly since 2010. Tropical Animals has been cited as one of the most important drivers in the evolution of club culture in Italy, broadening people’s music tastes. Ricardo Baez’s trademark sets are unique- genre blurring, technically excellent and full of surprises. Ricardo Baez always leaves his audience wanting more.

And then there’s the sensational guests he books week in, week out. From Avalon Emerson to Marshall Jefferson, Vladimir Ivkovic to Jayda G (just to name a few). Ricardo Baez’s knowledge of electronic music is incredible.

It didn’t take long for his eclectic style and boundless enthusiasm to start turning heads internationally. Soon after hearing about Tropical Animals, the world wanted a piece of Ricardo Baez. Berlin came calling through Tresor, Watergate and Renate. Then Frankfurt’s Live at Robert Johnson, New York’s House of Yes and Le Bain, and London’s XOYO and Corsica Studios.

Ricardo Baez is also a well accomplished producer, taking all of his musical savoir faire and impeccable taste as a selector and making something new, that is instantly recognisable as his own. After releasing on some of the most prestigious labels in electronic music, he realised his music needed a place to call home. Since 2018, that home has been his own label, also called Tropical Animals. Other exotic creatures and musical chameleons that share his hot house include Whitesquare, The Cyclist, Robert Owens, Rebolledo, and the pioneer of Italian disco, Daniele Baldelli.  
Recently, he has appeared on compilations for Running Back, Correspondant, Polifonic, and Hotmix Records, as well as outstanding releases on Mule Musiq, Permanent Vacation, Bordello a Parigi and Correspondant.

Winter 2024 brings Ricardo Baez’s pièce de resistance: His stunning debut album, Tutto Passa, available on Live at Robert Johnson. Every track filled with meaning, an anthology of the most important moments in Baez’s life. Stay tuned - the lucky few who have heard it say this work of art is going to be yet another outstanding contribution to music. We’d expect no less.
