Valeriya Force Brings Tropical Passion With Her New Hit 'Thunder'
Tropical heat, Latin rhythm, and summer vibes. 'Thunder' by Valeriya Force is an English-language track made for movement and emotion. Out July 11. 'This song is for every woman who's ever danced in the rain and felt like she owned the sky.'— Valeriya Force HOLLYWOOD, FL, UNITED STATES, June 28, 2025 / / -- Valeriya Force to Release Summer Single 'Thunder' — A Dance of Passion and Power in the Florida Rain July 11, 2025 marks the release of a brand-new single from Valeriya Force — 'Thunder', a bold summer track infused with heat, sensuality, and feminine power. Blending Latin rhythms, tropical atmosphere, and emotional intensity, this record is a pulse of movement and liberation. The track is now available for pre-save: Born on the Road, in a Thunderstorm The song was born unexpectedly — during a drive from Miami to Sarasota. Rain poured outside, thunder cracked the skies, and suddenly a melody sparked in Valeriya's mind. That raw, vivid moment in the middle of the storm and highway became the creative ignition of 'Thunder.' A track built entirely on instinct, body, and freedom. What the Song Speaks 'Thunder' is a story of a woman who is no longer afraid. She doesn't perform or play nice. She moves with the rhythm of summer, owns her body, knows her desires, and doesn't apologize for her strength or sexuality. It's not a tale of surrender — it's a declaration: 'I am the thunder.' It is passion without drama. Power without aggression. Dance not for attention but for release. Her desire isn't vulnerability — it's her fire. She moves boldly, loves fiercely, and lives on her terms. Music That Feels Like Heat 'Thunder' is a vibrant fusion of Latin Pop, Dance, and Tropical Groove. The sound captures the post-rain heat of Miami — electric air, bodies in motion, skin sizzling, every beat syncing with the heartbeat. This track is crafted to be felt, not just heard. It doesn't play in the background — it takes over the moment. Behind the Sound: Production and Team 'Thunder' is the product of a creative partnership. Valeriya wrote the lyrics and melody, driven by pure intuition. The arrangement was created by Ukrainian producer Vlad Ustinov, delivering a rich, Latin-flavored atmosphere. Vocal recording was done in a home studio, with support from her husband Vladyslav Tkachenko, who coordinated the production process. Mixing and mastering were completed by Nikita Chena, known for his deep, textured audio work. Vladyslav Tkachenko also leads the business strategy of FORCEMUSIC INC, the independent label behind the release. He handles marketing, rollout, and vision. Valeriya Force is the creative powerhouse — not only the voice but the artistic mind behind the melody, mood, and emotion. This is not just collaboration — it's partnership. Vladyslav finds the sound. Valeriya feels and writes it. Together, they turn tracks into cinematic experiences. Why You Should Hear 'Thunder' This single is dropping at the peak of summer, right in Florida's rainy season. It sounds exactly like July in the tropics: hot, wet, sensual, and alive. This is music for nights alone, for rooftop parties, for dancing barefoot in your kitchen. For claiming your body. For expressing who you are without filters. For turning up the volume and letting go.

Senior Living: Summer tunes
Article content Summertime and the living is easy … especially if you're grooving to seasonal music. Article content It's light. Article content It's fun. Article content It's warm and fuzzy. Article content Summer music hopefully has you singing and dancing in the sunshine … even if you were a dorky teenager like me who sang badly and danced worse. Article content It was different times. There wasn't a pocket-sized telephone for every teen everywhere. Article content But no problem way back when. The sun was shining. And the songs on Top 40 radio were warm and happy. Article content Article content It was — and still is — the summer musical mood. Article content I'll dial back to some personal history: My single mother worked as a bookkeeper in what was then a thriving Montreal clothing industry. And since school was out for July and August, I got sent to summer camp. Article content Camp was, however, more musical than athletic. It's not like we learned to play instruments. But we did a lot of singing. Article content Beaver Camp had a way leftward leaning. One of my early camp songs was Solidarity Forever. We actually heard it performed live at camp by the great Pete Seeger: Article content 'When the union's inspiration through the workers' blood shall run Article content 'There can be no power greater anywhere beneath the sun Article content 'Yet what force on Earth is weaker than the feeble strength of one Article content 'But the union makes us strong.' Article content I doubt this is U.S. President Donald Trump's favourite Article content song. And it's not a summer hit these days. But Seeger was popular at the summer camp I attended. We didn't have any fancy facilities; the counsellors played guitars, the campers sang along. Article content Article content And we learned union songs. I loved them … even if those lyrics were a mystery to a little kid like me and my fellow campers. Article content Fast-forward to high school. And new tunes. Article content Although a hopeless dancer, I loved popular music, from Pat Boone (no relation) to Elvis. And my absolute favourites were the soul hits from Detroit and the southern Stax studio. Great harmonies. Super voices. Dancing tunes. Article content I played the hits on my transistor radio — a gorgeous Sony I acquired on a trip to New York City and stored carefully in its original box. My favourites: Smokey Robinson, the Supremes, Otis Redding. Article content I still love that music.
