A soulful essential from the Code Red Recordings catalogue, Ann Nesby's 'So Much Joy' now gets the DFTD treatment with two storming remixes that re-align this classic track with 2020 dancefloors. Kicking things off, Italian duo Alaia & Gallo deliver their signature flare to the cut, as atmospheric builds and a bounding bassline give the record the club appeal required for peak time dancefloors. Up next, Florence's Lorenzo Spano displays his production prowess with a tech-inspired roller that brings Ann Nesby's original into new dimensions.
