T-Zone biography
The T-zone project was built around a vocalist presented by SAIFAM Publishing Group as having started out at drama school in London and, as the sister of one of her friend in her class had a group, she asked her to sing with them and they worked together for a couple of years. After a phase of mediocre success, she decided to move on and started to think about what she wanted to do : she discovered dance music and decided that was what she wanted to start his career in. She had been singing for many years when she did her debuts on the label One Way Records together with male vocalist Jerry on the single Check Out.
All the singles were released under One-Way
records (a label of SAIFAM Publishing). All singles (among them, a lot of
covers) were recorded and mixed in Verona (Italy), released as vinyls only.
Their very first single was Check Out. It was released in 1993, F. Turatti
and Natale were the executive producers. It was produced and arranged by Morris
Capaldi (who also wrote the lyrics and mixed the tracks), A. Milan and DJ F.
Marchi. It included a B-side entitled O.L.D. The single was mixed at
20.0.90 Studio in Milano (Italy).
2 years passed by before we saw another release from T-Zone. At S.A.I.F.A.M. Publishing group, Mauro Farina decided to let her sing a song produced by Cappella's team Max Persona, Roby Arduini, Antonio Puntillo : Movin
Up And Down. It was released in 1995. This original track (for once) was composed and written by
M. Motta, Roby Arduini,
M. Aventino and Antonio Puntillo. It was produced by Roby Arduini
for Union srl, realized by Roby Arduini
and DJ Mamix, mixed by Roby Arduini at Union Studios in Verona (Italy).
The same year was released Do You Know Where You're Going To. Originally
written by Mike Masser and Gerry Goffin, and performed by Diana Ross, it was
produced by M. Farina
and F. Turatti, recorded and mixed at Mela Studios).
The follow-up was the wonderful euro track Don't Let Me in 1996. The
vocalist on was the one known under the code name Jenny.
The single was written and composed by M. Farina,
F. Serra, F. Turatti and A. Bindella. It was produced by M. Farina,
G.Crivellente and A.Bindi. Additional production was done by F. Turatti and
Factory Team. It was recorded and mixed at Mela Studios and Factory Sound Studios.
Then came Body Rock a few monthes later. Originally written and sung
by Maria Vidal, it was produced by F. Turatti and G. Crivellente, mixed at Mela
Studios.
In 1997, T-zone recorded Reach Out. It was produced by M. Farina,
R. Arduini and A. Puntillo. Originally written by L. Dozier (it was a cover
of a song of The Four Tops sung for the first time in 1966), it was performed
and mixed by R. Arduini and A. Puntillo at Union Studios.
After a 2 years pause, the cover of I Will Survive was released in 1999.
Originally written by Dino Fekaris and Perren and initially sung by Gloria Gaynor,
it was produced by M. Farina
and F. Turatti, mixed at Universal Studios. It included an instrumental B-side
entitled Survivors.
Then came Nutbush City Limits, a cover of a Tina Turner song. It included
a the instrumental B-side called No Limits, which was actually the clone
of Survivors. Produced by M. Farina
and Factory Team, it was mixed at Factory Sound Studios, mastered by Compotech-CA
(USA).
Turn The Beat Around (a Gloria Estefan cover) was the follow-up. The
vinyl included 2 versions of the singles (a Factory Batuca mix, a little latino
oriented, and a Factory Speed mix, more trancy), plus the 70' mix of Don't
Let Me and the track No Limits (already featured in the previous
single). It was produced by M. Farina
and Factory Team, mixed at Factory Sound Studios.
T-Zone's last single was Radio Ga Ga, a cover of Queen's hit, which had
already been covered by DJ
Bobo. It included, once again, the instrumental Survivors ! It was
produced by M. Farina
and & F. Turatti, mastered by Compotech.
There are a few tracks recorded by T-zone which were only compilation tracks
: among them, Twist Of Fate, Young Hearts Run Free, This Time I Know It's
For Real and Higher And Higher.
