Happy holidays to everyone around the globe! This week, we have a special Christmas mix by Phoenix's own World-famous Rani G.
Rani was first introduced to us by DJ Joe DiPadova (Gotsoul/ONE), back when he was living in Phoenix about 4 years ago, and we've been in touch ever since. Born in Cyprus to Jordanian parents, Rani has been mixing music since the age of 10, when he first blended tunes using two cassette decks. He developed as an artist in the craft under the tutelage of Cyprus' top DJ, and upon moving to Phoenix at the turn of the century, Rani was further exposed to the roots of house music and its main players.
He has since been a very busy DJ and events organizer, both in Arizona and in various cities around the world. When the Gypsy Kings came to Phoenix, he opened and closed for them. Since we've known him, we've seen Rani in the pursuit of his goal: to elevate music and performance in the Phoenix area. He helps import international talent to the scene, including his friend Jojo Flores, and provides the soundtrack to iconic events such as Veuve Cliquot Polo Classic LA, Key To The Cure, The Special Event 2011 and Retro Hi-Fi under his brand World:Life:Music. More on Rani.
Here we have a skillfully mixed Holiday Mixtape V.1 by Rani that we immensly enjoyed listening to. As we understand it, Rani has not recorded a set in a long long time, so this is special. We hope it blesses you the way it blessed us. Our best Christmas wishes to all!
