After recent dancefloor bombs from Daddy’s Groove & Mindshake and twoloud & Cranksters, Sander Van Doorn takes charge of his DOORN Records label with feisty new single Cuba Libre.

Sampling Alegria’s 2003 Spinnin’ Records classic of the same name, Cuba Libre fuses a rousing Latino vocal chant and infectious Cuban percussion with Doorn’s cutting-edge big room house sounds in typically impactful fashion. Techy percussion meets monotone synth stabs before the breakdown yields a beastly main riff and more from Cuba in the way of a sprightly trumpet melody.

It’s another succinct and powerful anthem from Sander van Doorn, stripping things back to straight-up elements that each have maximum effect– and with over 7 million plays on YouTube, SoundCloud and Spotify alone for his last two singles, this is sure to be another massive success for the Dutch stalwart.
