Janine and the Mixtape
Janine is all about the voice, the beat and honesty. That is the heart of every track. Her voice is full of raw emotion and flawless control. She has the ability to shift between a fierce soulfulness you can hear all the way down the street and a voice so delicate and smooth it feels like she is whispering in your ear. Her influences include the intimacy of Aaliyah, the creativity of MIA and the depth of Notorious BIG.
Singer/songwriter/producer/instrumentalist Janine and the Mixtape combines hard-hitting 90’s hip-hop beats, R&B vocals and intricate synths. She comes from all the way down in New Zealand but is constantly reaching out to a worldwide audience. More than content to think outside the box, Janine approaches the music industry in a way that is refreshing and captivating.
Real life experiences are what drive Janine’s lyrics. Pain, darkness, loss and hope are re-occurring themes. She bares her soul on a regular basis as she uses her sketchbook blog as a place to put up video snippets of production she is working on. It is important to her that fans and the audience are a part of the song writing process.
All aspects of Janine’s musical profile have been personally attended to – she writes all her own songs, produces the beats, designs her own websites, consistently reaches out to her fans through every social media site in existence, handles marketing and even manages to deal with all live bookings. There are few as passionate enough to consistently work with such determination. It’s a hardworking, no bullshit attitude with a bit of cuteness and care.
Her talents and obsessions delve further than just music. She can be found down at the local park shooting hoops, out and about taking photos or kick-pushing on her board to grab a coffee. And all of this in a fresh pair of size 3 high-top kicks.
After playing shows and recording in New York it has become a second home. The response she received in the time she was there was beyond encouraging and helped shape her sound. Within no time she begun to develop a loyal fan base and significant buzz – to the point where she had a show shut down by the NY fire department.
Fans have been drooling with anticipation as she put together 50 different versions of her single and over 100 different cover artwork designs before feeling it was right to share with the world. Janine and the Mixtape is very excited to finally release the debut single and video - Bullets.

Rock with me now
You got it, i got it
Lets work it out
Talk to me now
Rock with me now
You got it, I got it
Lets work it out
If i have to run through the fire i hope it's with you
everyone can tell im inspired i can't lie it's the truth boy
And everytime i'm watching the sunset til the light of the moon
I cant help but sit here and wonder if you're feelin' it too
Im buggin', Trippin on you
I said it, I said it
I Heard timing is everything
you came, made sense of everything
caught me off guard a little bit
but im diggin' it

The lyrics of Janine and the Mixtape's song "Walk Away" are about a person who has been waiting for love in their life, and finally finds it. It is a song about taking a chance on love and working through hard times for the sake of the relationship. The lyrics express the singer's ambivalence about the relationship, mentioning a fear of being hurt, yet still being drawn to the other person. They hope that this person will be the one to run through the fire with and view them as perfect. The chorus repeats the call to talk and rock together as a way of resolving the issues in the relationship though it is not clear if they manage to work it out by the end of the song.
The lyrics are persuasive of the dual feelings involved in falling in love in insecure times. The singer's words display the push and pull between wanting to be with someone and the fear of what might come with it. However, the chorus encourages coming together and speaking things out, emphasizing that both people involved have a sense of commitment to making the relationship work. Janine and the Mixtape displays an artful way of balancing those feelings in a way that is both relatable and appealing for listeners to connect with.

I was going through so much when I first heard this song that it constantly made me cry and more sad but I couldn't stop listening to it.

Since 2016 .... I'm obsessed with this song. Still remember something. I can never forget him entire life. He was an angel. When I lost my mother , he came into my life and support me, cared about me. He is everything for me. At the present time we separated. But I learnt from him how to live a life without any support.. Today I'm emotionally strong. Thank you " R"
