When VIVID Sydney comes knocking you know you have to pull out the big guns.
On Saturday 28th May, CLUB Ctrl presents an interstate b2b marathon from the gods, featuring 5 hours of power from Melbourne’s Close Counters alongside Brisbane’s Golden Vessel. It’s like the powerhouse matchup you never knew you needed until now. It’s like Mulder and Sculley or Walter White and Jesse Pinkman… but without the UFO’s and the meth labs.
Close Counters and Golden Vessel are both widely admired for their impeccable taste and boundary pushing sounds. Close Counters are on a red-hot-run right now fresh from a glowing performance at Let Them Eat Cake and ahead of their prime-time slot at Strawberry Fields. Over the last few years our ears have been treated to a number of dazzling releases including the ‘FLUX’ or ‘REFRACTIONS’ EP’s and of course their mesmerising debut LP ‘SOULACOASTA’.
Golden Vessel’s own back catalogue is blissfully as impressive with LP’s ‘Colt’ and ‘Slowshine’ and key singles ‘Hesitate’, ‘littlebitwild’ (w/ Mallrat), ‘Underneath’ (w/ Young Franco) and last year’s 10-minute masterpiece ‘getforward’. Golden Vessel is an absolute streaming-machine and just released ‘eee’ the first new single from his forthcoming album.
