Franky Rizardo Finds ‘More To Life’ In New Collaboration With Carston
A landmark collaboration with vocalist and songwriter Carston, the track sets the tone for Franky Rizardo’s upcoming album and his next creative phase.
One of the Netherlands most in-demand exports Franky Rizardo opens a bold new chapter with his latest single ‘More To Life’, set to drop 16th January. Releasing the same day as his sold out show at Amsterdam’s 10,000 capacity Ziggo Dome, Franky teams up with versatile Dutch vocalist Carston on a euphoric, emotionally charged release that serves as the first single from his highly anticipated forthcoming album.
Blending driving club energy with melodic depth, the release signals a refined evolution of Franky’s sound: confident, expressive and built for both movement and meaning. ‘More To Life’ is a slow-burner built for the dancefloor, unfolding with tension before lifting into its melodic house groove. Carston’s emotive vocals, the track’s bright keys and pulsating house production carry the track forward, striking a balance between warmth and momentum, and elevating the record into an uplifting, late-night anthem.
As one of The Netherlands’ most respected musical exports, and the country’s most internationally booked DJ heading into 2025, Franky Rizardo is renowned for his forward-thinking sound that seamlessly bridges house and techno.

Beyond the studio, Franky continues to expand his creative world through his LTF Records imprint, which has seen singles reach No.1 on Beatport, including ‘Everybody’, while ‘Out The Fire (At The Hotel)’ has amassed over 32 million Spotify streams. His brand FLOW has also evolved into a global movement, focused on guiding audiences into a ‘flow state’ through vibrant gatherings and meaningful connection. Now hosting over 20 events annually and occupying stages at major festivals including Tomorrowland, Mysteryland and Extrema Outdoor, FLOW continues to grow into a lasting music institution.
Joining Franky on ‘More To Life’ is Dutch-born singer, songwriter and producer Carston, whose background in pop brings a fresh emotional clarity to the collaboration. Known for his infectious melodies and striking vocal tone, Carston has built a strong reputation for crafting songs that resonate deeply with listeners. His ability to bridge mainstream sensibilities with electronic production shines on ‘More To Life’, marking a natural crossover moment between the two artists.
Serving as the opening chapter of Franky Rizardo’s forthcoming album, ‘More To Life’ signals an exciting new phase – one rooted in melody, emotion and artistic growth, whilst maintaining the dancefloor energy that has defined his career to date.
