Claptone Zero – new music from the masked house producer
Claptone, the musician that maintains a mystery that few artists can match finally drops long-awaited original new music.
His new single “Zero” is a driving beacon of house music indicative that dancefloors commanded over by his golden mask’s charm are set to return very soon.
”Zero’s” illuminating crescendo and playful yet commanding vocal is as evocative as it is affecting and underpins the beginning of one of Claptone’s most transparent musical moments without compromising what made his earlier work so special, channeling deep grooves and in “Zero’s” case, dizzying euphoria into an unyielding dancefloor anthem.
Making the most out of a year void of a busy touring schedule, Claptone’s long studio sessions have amassed some exciting new original material for 2021.
“Zero” is the first single to follow his most recently celebrated Ibiza summer hit ‘Drop The Pressure’ and remixes for superstars like Ava Max, Dua Lipa, Michael Kiwanuka and Mark Ronson.
Missing out on his spellbinding Saturday night “’The Masquerade’” residency at Pacha, Ibiza, as well as global festivals and headline shows, the masked man turned to broadcasting a weekly live stream which recently celebrated more than 45 Million YouTube views; a fan endeavour that awarded Claptone as the highest-ranking House DJ in the DJ Mag Top 100 poll for the 4th year in a row.
“Zero” is a dancefloor statement for Claptone in2021; exploring deeper into an accomplished and mysterious musical character.
