Discover Nicky Romero’s New Latin Song “Move It (Rapidin)” Now

Nicky Romero, long respected for his precision-engineered progressive house anthems, steps into unfamiliar but invigorating territory with “Move It (Rapidin)”, a collaboration with Italian producer Giacobbi and Mexican-American vocalist Fatboi. The single, released via Municipal and Protocol Recordings, marks Romero’s first official foray into Spanish-language music—a calculated risk that repositions the Dutch DJ within a globalized framework of electronic production.

It’s a reinterpretation of Reel 2 Real’s ‘90s staple “I Like To Move It” filtered through a multi-cultural lens: Giacobbi’s groove-forward house sensibility offers a sleek scaffold, while Fatboi’s commanding Spanish verses anchor the track in the evolving Latin Tech House movement.

Nicky Romero’s adaptability is part of what has sustained his longevity in a genre where trends can feel disposable. His contributions to the broader industry—such as the widely adopted Kickstart plugin—underscore a technical fluency that many of his peers rely on. That technical sensibility is felt here in how well the track balances homage and novelty. While the song is unlikely to be a boundary-shattering reinvention, it’s functional and well-executed—designed to resonate from Miami clubs to Mexico City festivals.

Fatboi’s presence deserves specific note. His bilingual command adds both texture and authenticity, tying the song to the Latin Tech House scene that’s gaining visibility on global stages like EDC Mexico and Flow Fest. His collaboration history with HUGEL and MC Davo signals a crossover appeal that is strategic, not opportunistic.

Giacobbi, known for future-forward dance compositions, keeps the track buoyant with rhythmic patience, avoiding overproduction in favor of clarity. As Romero continues to diversify his portfolio—with ongoing projects like Monocule exploring darker sonic palettes—“Move It (Rapidin)” illustrates how calculated collaborations can still yield culturally resonant results.
