Close Counters and ZOË

Naarm/Melbourne-based Close Counters’ diverse soundscape sits at the crossroads of house, neo-soul, broken beat and disco. Their 2023 Music Victoria Award-winning and Australian Music Prize nominated album, ‘SOULACOASTA II’, is a sample-infused expedition that further secured their spot as one of the top talents in their class, with the duo tirelessly sourcing niche samples from films and records on trips across the globe. 

ZOË's carefully chosen tracks are curated with the intention of capturing the perfect "vibe." Whether it be "Euphoric House to set your soul on fire" or "girl with a chupa chup and sunnies on inside" type energy, ZOË artfully weaves a mix of Funky and Tech House, Garage, and a sprinkling of Disco, to build an energy that compliments the atmosphere. WARNING: 100% guaranteed to get asses shaking.
