‘Tokyo’ was originally released in March 2021 as a full-fledged dance track that paid homage to AmPm's early influences in the scene, as well as painting a striking image of Japan's iconic capital city, Tokyo. It was released by the up-and-coming Dutch label Sushi Muzik, based in Amsterdam, which has released tracks by dance music legends Norman Doray, Roland Clark, Kryder and Eddie Amador.
The brand-new remix comes courtesy of VIVID, an American DJ based in Tokyo who is a leading figure in Asia's club scene. While serving as a resident at some of the most popular clubs in Asia, in countries such as Japan and South Korea, this talented and acclaimed artist also releases his own music on top record labels such as Armada and Enhanced Music, with tracks hitting No.19 on the United States Billboard Dance chart and No.8 on US dance radio.
The remix adds a new future house layer to the original track's tech house groove and fast pace. The song has been reborn with a bold and danceable sound that is perfect for the club scene.
Message from VIVID
“AmPm's unique sound found in ‘Tokyo’ inspired me to bring a house-y vibe geared for the underground nightclubs in Japan.”
Message from AmPm
“We're glad to be able to begin 2022 with the release of a suitably high-paced tune. The original version already had a fast tempo, but the thicker sound is unique to VIVID, and we hope you can enjoy listening to this excellent new remix and comparing it with the original.
“We sincerely hope that 2022 will be the year when people from all around the world can gather in Tokyo once again.”
