On selecting remixers for his tracks, Rony said: "I ask them to give to my story their own twist. I love every remix that each one has done, it’s great to see the music perspective they add to the music story I previously created."
Regarding working with Black Circle, Rony described him as one of the "hottest producers" around at the moment.
Another upcoming release is the 'Mila' EP, named after his daughter. Rony added: "'Mila' is a track that I made with vocals and melodic elements. My daughter, she is almost going to college so the track represent my words to her. She has been my baby for all these years and now she is almost gone to college, so that is what the words mean 'I’ll always be there for you'."
