Keanu Silva, Kickbait & Carpoolboy Reimagine Classic with ‘Rhythm of Life’
Keanu Silva, Kickbait, and Carpoolboy reimagine Corona’s 1993 classic The Rhythm of the Night as a blazing UK Speed House anthem.
Keanu Silva, Kickbait, and Carpoolboy have joined forces for ‘Rhythm of Life’, a high-energy reimagining of Corona‘s legendary 1993 Eurodance classic ‘The Rhythm of the Night’. The track uses the original master vocal stems of the iconic 90s hook and builds around them with fresh original verses and a blazing UK Speed House production running at over 140 BPM, pairing pitch-bent vocal chops and euphoric old-school rave stabs with a driving modern bassline.
The result sits at an interesting crossover point between nostalgia and club currency, keeping the recognisable vocal that made ‘The Rhythm of the Night’ a global hit while wrapping it in a sound that is firmly rooted in what is dominating dancefloors right now. UK Speed House has been one of the more exciting movements in club music over the past couple of years, and ‘Rhythm of Life’ leans into its energy without losing the warmth of the source material.
Keanu Silva brings a track record of millions of streams and strong editorial support to the release, while Kickbait and Carpoolboy contribute the production weight and club-ready instincts that give the track its modern edge.
‘Rhythm of Life’ is out now and primed for peak-time floors.
