Sandy Rivera feat DaNii 'You Work Hard For Your Enemy' Dirty Soul
Sandy Rivera has been responsible for helming some amazing dancefloor tracks over the years. On his latest release, ‘You Work Hard For Your Enemy’, he takes things down a notch for a 116bpm house cut which also features striking vocals from DaNii. This is a song that’s been on heavy rotation everywhere for us – on our office stereo, in our car and when out DJing – and we still don’t think we’ll ever get bored of it. It’s not a full-on dance track like ‘Finally’ or ‘Come Into My Room’; instead, it’s a sincere, brooding and mellow house cut with simple bass, epic strings and lush pads that you’ll greedily want to keep all to yourself.
