Listen to River Moon's latest track, 'Shake Dat'
The tune was born from a viral tweet
Producer, DJ and songwriter River Moon has released her latest single, 'SHAKE DAT'.
The track follows previous releases including 'THE RAVE PRINCESS', 'HARD' and her remix of LSDXOXO's 'Sick Bitch'.
'SHAKE DAT' is a bold, stomping cut, ready for the dance-floor and is accompanied by sultry, fierce vocals - both voices being River's own - resembling a battle between the two. It seems unsurprising that upon posting the snippet, the tune went viral.

“I had a creative block since COVID started and haven't made a single beat since March 2020," she explained. "One night I was bored and started making a remix of 50 Cent's 'Just a Lil Bit' and it gave me the idea to rap over the beat.
"I asked Twitter if a male rapper wanted to do a 'Promiscuous' by Nelly Furtado and Timbaland battle of the sexes type song with me and no one responded so I just did both parts myself.
"I posted the snippet on Twitter the same night I finished it and it went viral.”
