La Lani & Rex Heaven – ‘Over U’

Co-produced with Rex Heaven, the track launches into business right from the get-go, leaving you no choice but to stay on board for the entire ride. The track progresses through a high-tempo flow, packed with brilliant build-ups and undeniable drops. Expect to hear this one a lot over summer!
