This rock-flavored song of theirs isn’t just cool—the playful choreography they show off in the video is also part of its appeal.

A super refreshing, mood-boosting track from DJ Sammy, who hails from Mallorca, Spain.
The vocals, youthful like a teenager’s, are energetic and cute! It’s literally a feel-good, all-out banger—my top recommendation for trance music.
I especially want listeners who’ve shied away thinking “trance is too intense” to give this one a try.

They’re an artist you’ll definitely want to remember.
