Darren Rahn - Moxified
Moxified is a sneak peek from Darren’s upcoming album currently in production. Rahn puts his best foot forward on this outing following a string of smash radio hits including the #1 Billboard hit and 2016 Smooth Jazz Network “Song of the Year”, D-Luxe, from his 5th solo album Sonic Boom. Pulling out all the stops, Moxified delivers great energy and mojo with a cast of world-class musicians. Rahn is featured on alto sax this time around while a live rhythm section provides the foundation for this groove infected jam. Live horn section and a collection of real analog synth sounds top it all off, tickling the ear with serious sonic goodness. Derived from the word “moxie” (mäk-sē), which means to have energy, pep, savvy, courage, determination and know-how, Moxified is true to it’s namesake delivering upbeat vibes to it’s listeners.
