Australian producer ZUSO, known to behind the moniker as Gabriel Cuenca, has dropped a vibrant new melodic house track just in time for summer. Teaming up with Melbourne-born, LA-based artist Cleopold, 'High Above' is out now via LOVE CLVB.
The track is a testament to patience and the magic of collaboration. ZUSO reveals that the instrumental had been in the works for over a year, waiting for the perfect vocalist to bring it to life.
ZUSO shares; “Have been sitting on this one for a while now and am finally happy it’s now out in the world. Has probably been just over a year now since first starting the idea, we went through so many different versions and different sample ideas, but eventually, we decided to get a vocal on it and George and I started working together at the start of the year to get it all wrapped up."
Enter Cleopold. Within weeks, the track was transformed. "His vocal just took the track to another level," says ZUSO, clearly stoked with the result. "Perfect song to kick off the summer, hope you enjoy."
Cleopold was equally enthusiastic about the collaboration. "The track came together seamlessly," he explains, "and I found it easy to jump on the mic with such a light and textural chord progression." He adds, "Seems like a no-brainer to release this tune with ZUSO in the lead up to Australian summer."
With its infectious energy and sun-drenched vibes, 'High Above' is sure to be a staple on playlists and dance floors alike as the weather heats up. You can stream it now on your favourite platform.
