Italia Nova represents a new way of interpreting traditional Italian tunes
and ritual dance; some having Celtic roots dating back to the invasion of
the Gauls. Given new technology and a growing club culture have inspired many
traditional folk artists to graft their traditional sounds - such as pizzica
and tarantella - on to electronic beats to create a hybrid for the new millenium.
