Rivo and Doriann have officially joined forces for their first collaborative effort, delivering the high-octane track ‘Taka Taka.’ Released via Tomorrowland Music, the record serves as a masterclass in blending driving techno production with infectious Latin vocal hooks, creating a soundscape perfectly tailored for both expansive festival main stages and intimate club environments.
The synergy between the two artists is evident from the opening bars. Both producers have experienced a meteoric rise over the past two years, and ‘Taka Taka’ acts as a natural convergence of their distinct sonic identities—marrying Rivo’s dark, driving aesthetic with Doriann’s signature groove-oriented melodic style.
A Rising Force in Electronic Music
Rivo, the 26-year-old producer from Brive-la-Gaillarde, first captured global attention in 2024 with his official remix of Disclosure’s ‘You & Me.’ Since that breakout moment, he has maintained a relentless pace, with hits like his rework of Armin van Buuren’s ‘In & Out of Love’ and his original single ‘Last Night’ both surpassing 50 million streams. His touring schedule has been equally impressive, featuring over 200 performances since 2024, including a prestigious residency at UNVRS Ibiza and appearances at Tomorrowland and Club Space Miami.
Doriann has similarly carved out a unique lane within the electronic scene. Known for a melancholic yet melodic approach, his breakout single ‘Mention’ earned significant support from Solomun’s Diynamic imprint and BBC Radio 1. His subsequent releases on labels like Experts Only and Drumcode have solidified his reputation as a formidable talent. It was his 2024 track ‘Nocturnal,’ a collaboration with Adam Sellouk, that initially caught Rivo’s ear.
“I had been following Doriann for a long time, having played ‘Nocturnal’ with Adam Sellouk a lot,” Rivo shared. “We exchanged a lot of ideas, I really wanted something with the same dark club energy, with a catchy hook, and ‘Taka Taka’ definitely delivers all that. Very excited for this record, and for a first release on Tomorrowland Music.”
Crafting a Global Sound
The production philosophy behind ‘Taka Taka’ was centered on achieving a balance between raw, industrial drive and an inescapable, rhythmic groove. By integrating a Latin vocal hook, the producers have ensured the track possesses an immediate, ear-catching quality that transcends language barriers. With Rivo commanding a combined social media audience of over one million and Doriann’s tracks becoming staples in major festival sets worldwide, ‘Taka Taka’ arrives with significant momentum.
The track is available now on all major streaming platforms via Tomorrowland Music.
