Summary

EDX and the upcoming talented Frey merge their creative impulses for the stunning update of the eternal Italo euro dance anthem The Rhythm Of The Night. Their own version is packed with tribal techy drums, pumping basslines, sharp kicks and on top dark moody distorted synthy hooks to bring the right moodiness along with pizzicato like airy synthy theme that works beautifully to add the trancy euro dance edge to it. The result is an incredible record with hypnotic feel with afro house touches and bubbly grooves to carry you away and become your soundtrack for your Tik Tok stories from your summer holidays. Production that shines and sonic design that simply is on fire from the always at the forefront EDX and frey. #PureGold Love IT
