T.V.B. kind of love a genreless work, that ranges between more uptempo songs and acoustic and abstract songs.

From Radio Trapani:

“All the songs of T.V.B. kind of love are about a breakup and are dedicated and inspired by my ex partner, who encouraged me to get closer to production and pop music. The production is electronic but not always evident, psychedelic elements and harmonic textures are superimposed on tight rhythms. The voice is never screamed. The lyrics alternate open-hearted dedications (Go, The Loss and the Gain, Growing Strong) to more introspective or depressive reflections (Knife Emoji, Sweet Scent). Besides helping to process uncomfortable moods, the contents aim to connect with those who might have shared them and express as much as possible a sensitive and emotionally available masculinity.”

Born in Domodossola in 1987, Dario Trapani, aka Radio Trapani, grew up surrounded by records from a very young age. At the age of 17 he began playing with several garage rock bands from Domodossola (Thee Piatcions, Electric 69) and producing his own music with Logic Pro, fascinated by jazz and improvisation. Two years later he began studying music professionally, learning the rudiments of harmony and jazz and to analyze as much music as possible.

He graduated in jazz and electronic music at the conservatory, moving between Milan and Amsterdam, where he has lived permanently since 2014. Radio Trapani is the project with which, after years of improvised music, Dario dedicates himself to the song form, writing – for the first time – the lyrics and singing them in English. In addition to jazz, the music of the project brings together all the influences and styles that brought him closer to music.
