Producing Career
In the early 1990s, Robyx pioneered the production of the Eurodance style. Hits such as "Think About the Way" by Ice MC, "The Rhythm of the Night" by Corona featuring Ice MC, "Me and You" by Alexia, and "Run to Me" by Double You made Robyx an international success as a producer. Zanetti is widely credited for increasing the exposure of Eurodance on radio. Robyx came out with the songs "Take Away the Colour" (1993) and "The Rhythm of the Night" (1992). In the mid-1990s, when Eurodance had reached mainstream popularity, Robyx came out with several singles, the most successful of which was "Baby Baby" by Corona. "Baby Baby", like "The Rhythm of the Night", was played on American radio stations, which at the time was unusual for a European dance song. In 1997, Robyx produced Alexia's "The Summer is Crazy". Since 1997, Robyx has produced less music, and has focused on Italian pop music as opposed to the Eurodance genre.

Famous quotes containing the words producing and/or career:
“What ails it, intrinsically, is a dearth of intellectual audacity and of aesthetic passion. Running through it, and characterizing the work of almost every man and woman producing it, there is an unescapable suggestion of the old Puritan suspicion of the fine arts as such—of the doctrine that they offer fit asylum for good citizens only when some ulterior and superior purpose is carried into them.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“A black boxer’s career is the perfect metaphor for the career of a black male. Every day is like being in the gym, sparring with impersonal opponents as one faces the rudeness and hostility that a black male must confront in the United States, where he is the object of both fear and fascination.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
