Dance music titans Gabry Ponte and Nicky Romero have joined forces for their debut collaboration, “Rave Music,” released on Gabry Ponte’s techno-driven label, PENTAPHONIA Records. The single, released on June 6, 2025, is an adrenaline-pumping, high-octane peak-time anthem.
“Rave Music” is a powerful fusion, blending the raw sound and boisterous energy of classic rave with thunderous kicks, sharp synths, and explosive drops. It also incorporates a clean-cut production style, a vivacious big room melody, futuristic “zorbing” effects, and computerized vocals, making it suitable for modern dancefloors.
Gabry Ponte, hailed as a “legend” in the industry, is Italy’s most-streamed DJ/producer, boasting over 6 billion worldwide streams. A founding member of Eiffel 65 and the producer behind the Grammy-nominated hit “Blue (da ba dee),” Ponte’s influence on dance music is undeniable. His recent successes include “Thunder” with LUM!X and “Mockingbird” with Tiësto and Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike. Despite his global success, Ponte remains true to his roots as a club raver, curious about the intimate DJ-to-crowd chemistry found in underground bunker clubs. Later this month, he is set to make history as the first DJ to headline San Siro Stadium in Milan, Italy, performing for 55,000 partygoers.
Dutch DJ and producer Nicky Romero is a pioneer who was at the forefront of the late 2000s EDM boom and has maintained his status as a visionary in electronic music. As the head of Protocol Recordings and the mastermind behind tracks like “Toulouse” and the chart-topping “I Could Be The One,” Romero has an impressive catalog and is a frequent collaborator with industry heavyweights such as David Guetta, Armin van Buuren, Hardwell, and Afrojack. He is gearing up for a busy summer, with confirmed stops at Las Vegas’ Zouk Club, Dreamfields Festival, and Tomorrowland. “Rave Music” is expected to be a staple in his upcoming sets.
