Close Counters return alongside Bristol royalty Sean McCabe & Angel Mel!
CC are a Melbourne duo weaving together lush samples and sun-soaked grooves into a sound that feels both timeless and forward-thinking. Rooted in deep crate-digging and global influences, their music carries a rich sense of soul and musicality.
Sean McCabe released his first tracks in 2003 and has since fine-tuned a trademark sound that is effortlessly soulful. Sean made his name in House, working with legendary US garage label King Street Sounds and remixing the likes of Dennis Ferrer, Evelyn Champagne King, Carolyn Harding, Blaze, and Roland Clark. Since then, he’s amassed an impressive discography for labels like Local Talk, Strictly Rhythm, Vega Records, and Foliage Records.
A true Selector at heart, Angel specialises in long, genre-blending sets that explore a rich musical tapestry — from Soul, Funk, Rare Groove and Disco, to Deep Soulful Afro House and Broken Beat.
