Claptone releases his third studio album, Closer on Nov 12th via Different Recordings / PIAS, featuring a string of collaborators and pop icons including Barry Manilow, Seal and many more.
Closer has been in the making for over three years and showcases a natural development in sound for Claptone. The album has been co-produced by Stuart Price, the three-time Grammy-winning electronic musician, DJ, songwriter, and record producer known for his work with artists such as Madonna, The Killers, Dua Lipa and Pet Shop Boys. The aptly titled album is the next phase of the enigmatic artist’s musical evolution following the 2018 LP, Fantast and the 2015 debut, Charmer.
“Closer is about the joy and sometimes the pain of being human. It’s an ode to togetherness as well as empowerment, to heartache as well as bliss. I celebrate emotions. I allow myself to get closer to human beings and be human on the quest for my soul. Charmer was merely an introduction from a mystic being coming out of the shadows. On Fantast, I tried to find my roots in nature, and it was more of an escapist album, whereas Closer embraces people and the universe inside them.” - Claptone
Joining Claptone on his mission to embrace people, the album features a host of diverse global collaborators. Peter Bjorn and John take centre stage on Satellite, with Seal providing original vocals on Just A Ghost. The album balances both iconic names with established artists and exciting new talent as Claptone enlists Mayer Hawthorne, Mansionair, APRE, Dizzy, SPELLES, lau.ra, Two Another and long-time Claptone collaborator, Nathan Nicholson, ex-singer of The Boxer Rebellion.
Closer also features a surprise and intriguing pairing between Claptone and American pop icon and showman, Barry Manilow. A further exhibition of Claptone’s critical acclaim which spans across the realms of the underground to Pop Music, the collaboration took flight when Claptone noticed Barry Manilow taking part in a TV interview where he mentioned that his favourite act was “Some guy named Claptone”. “So, I hit him up. He was like, ‘let’s do something’!” Manilow (whose career spans 50 years with hits such as Mandy and Copacabana) said “he was looking for a Dusty Springfield/Pet Shop Boys moment”. That moment has now arrived, with Barry Manilow featuring on standout album track, Nobody.
“I am a perfectionist full stop. I wrote those songs and I love those songs. And I am very happy with the outcome. Here is so much substance. I love to work with unique voices, unique characters. This pushes me to deliver the best in production as well.” - Claptone
The release of Closer follows a run of singles throughout the year including ’Queen Of Ice’ feat Dizzy, ‘Right Into You’ feat Like Mike and Mansionaire, ‘Just A Ghost feat Seal’, ‘Zero’, ‘My Night’ feat APRE, ‘Wake Up’ feat James Vincent McMorrow and ‘Golden’ feat Two Another. Claptone has also recently provided official remixes of Storm Queen’s For A Fool, Trans-X’s Living on Video, as well as reworks for pop superstars Ava Max, Dua Lipa, Elton John and Mark Ronson.

[@chadcrum2314]

My favorite tunes are the first two songs. Real bangers! Hope your well. Could you tell me if there is a website to buy just vocals from songs. I want to try to create some songs. All I saw was royalty free songs from unknown songs. Thanks.

[@dominiqueparanthoen5869]

too strong ...trop fort .moi DJ français, je prends un réel plaisir à écouter tous ces mix's préparés et tellement bien réfléchis. Peu de Dj sont capables d'une telle virtuosité sur autant d'années ,seul Carl cox - Solomun arrive à ce point culminant de la Planète DJ .

[@Yujest47]

post a playlist please

Good DJ...

[@davidenriquericardofernand2577]

This is more house than the actually album. They put more pop cliche than house in the real album.

[@skullpan1102]

Why is this mundane brain melting noise recommend in the middle of my System of a down, Megadeth, Slayer, Glory hammer jam out??????? This shit is not real music..... The vocals are great but techno????? Techno is like Disco ..... Its dead and people Just dont smell its body yet. I could produce this with 5-string Bass 7 string baritone guitars with a Hartke bass amp with the cleanest tone possible but huge bottom end before the 7th string baritone and engl Invader tube amp with an heiress effects solar flare Distortion / overdrive pedal with the vocals the same as they are in this and I can make it absolutely amazing sounding instead of this bump bump bump out-of-control bump it's so just boring really
