They have come to fierce it up. It’s the trio of master house DJ/producers Tony Moran and Dani Toro with featured songstress Zhana Roiya. Remixing everyone from Celine Dion and Janet Jackson, to Ricky Martin, New York house music producer Moran brings his legendary dance sound that walks the fine line between dance pop sensibility and the deep underground on his current “Lick It Up” track. Meanwhile, circuit party star and Barcelona-based dance music artist Toro offers up his own epic tribal flair. And of course, there’s the powerhouse diva vocals of NYC singer Roiya who brings the sass to complement Moran and Toro’s bombastic EDM beats.
“Lick Me Up” starts off right with Roiya’s upfront and on-point vicals righteously gracing the triumphant tribal sounds Moran and Toro. “DJ make the music pound...hit me with your sound,” Roiya boldfully belts out. She continues the get-the-party-started anthemic chorus demanding listeners to “feel the burning” of her fire and get taken higher. Sassy diva vocals over some blaring bombastic. It’s a tried-and-true formula for a club anthem. And it's still working.
As if the original version is not fierce enough, “Lick Me Up” comes with a slew of hot remixes including ones from Rich B (London), Dan De Leon (Los Angeles), Enrry Senna (São Paulo) and Oscar Velasquez (Mexico City). The whole thing is quite the package. “Lick Me Up” is pulling out the stops and house heads should be quite happy.
