Dani Thorne and RayRay want to take you to “The Afters”

Hardstyle heavyweight RayRay teams up with Dani Thorne for her Dim Mak debut on “The Afters”, a Hard-hitting Techno banger loaded with gritty synths and a hypnotic female vocal loop. The track’s haunting and heavy allure recites “I just wanna dance” over a steady throbbing baseline. An ode to the afters that we all know and love, “The Afters” is the perfect hardstyle track to take you all the way through the night.

On her Dim Mak debut track, Dani Thorne adds; “The Afters is inspired by my first show as a techno artist at an Afters, and it reinvigorated my love for the rave scene. I knew I wanted to share that experience and bring The Afters home to you. Bringing this to life with Ray Ray was incredibly fun. She made it even nastier and we couldn’t stop laughing in our sessions. It was a blast.”

RayRay adds; “It was the very fun experience to sit in the studio with Dani. We absolutely made a banger. I got really excited when I heard Dani wants to tap in the hard dance scene. I always enjoy bringing the harder sound to the US music scene. Can’t wait to see what this collab will take us to!”

ABOUT RAYRAY

Renowned as one of dance music’s finest Taiwanese exports, RayRay is an artist project unlike any other.

Hailing from the illustrious city of Taipei, the purple-haired bundle of energy cemented her status in the scene as a Red Bull Thre3style competition winner and through a series of studio sessions with high-profile artists such as Skrillex, Yellow Claw, Steve Aoki, where she proved her versatility and production prowess in the bass music scene.

In terms of live performances, RayRay knows how to deliver an unmissable experience as she shows off her top-notch productions, pristine DJ skills, plus live vocals on her originals while always being the life of the party. It’s no wonder she became one of the leading women on Yellow Claw’s Barong Family imprint since her first signing with them in 2019.

RayRay’s home on the Dutch imprint has her name in feverish demand, and today she’s touring her propulsive sound all over the globe, creating seismic experiences for her fans. The bass music extraordinaire is always at the most enviable sonic spots and playing gigs at premiere festivals like Glastonbury, ADE, Tomorrowland, and Sunburn. Or destroying renowned clubs like Bootshaus, Exchange LA, and Ministry of Sound, to name a few.

RayRay’s passion for music started very early on, where a true love story with sculpting beats unfurled when she was just 17. Initially, on the hip-hop tip, she organically gravitated to the electronic music cartel, making her a diverse addition to the ever-evolving music industry.

Today, RayRay is incredibly tenacious and anything but a generic artist. She has fueled a fierce open format style that is an intricately textured amalgamation of hip hop, EDM, Miami bass, tech house, trap, and drumstep. Her high-profile label signings on Spinnin’ Records, Protocol Recordings, and Tiësto’s label Musical Freedom have led her style to evolve and grow naturally. It was this growth that was the creative catalyst for her critically acclaimed album 'Unearthly World' in 2022.

With a resume like RayRay's, there’s no doubt her tear to the top leagues of the scene will continue in 2023. There has already been a remix album of 'Unearthly World' confirmed, and several gigs international shows booked for the album world tour.
