about

Close Counters, one of Australia’s hottest house and soul exports, will be releasing their new single 'Up and Out' on November 27th. Harnessing the beauty of an 8-person choir, 'Up and Out' takes Close Counters' signature groove to the next level, balancing an uplifting beat with smooth synths. The duo's previous releases have garnered support from the likes of BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio 6, KCRW and Giles Peterson.

Speaking on the single, Allan and Finn (aka Close Counters) explain; 'Up & Out' was a track that came together through 112 days of lockdown here in Melbourne. Our incredible collection of friends and community were our support network and sounding board through this time, some of who eventually went on to feature in the 8 person choir that you can hear throughout the track. Everyone recorded their vocals from their makeshift studio setups and let us piece together the puzzle. We both feel pretty strongly about being able to talk with your friends through your problems and although we were all spread out across the city's north, creatively we managed to come together and create something positive through a really tough time. We think of this song as a bit of a celebration and maybe it was ironically yet appropriately titled in 2019 before any of this went down. It's a fun, throwback tune to the early 2000's - enjoy and we'll see you on the dancefloor soon enough!'
