Fresh from South East England, Contemporary Club is back with a single that’s guaranteed to get your feet moving and your head nodding. “Belong” is a shot of pure sonic sunshine, a blend of catchy melodies and infectious grooves that will have you singing along from the first listen.
The song explodes out of the gate with a clean and soothing embrace of shimmering guitar riffs that layer and intertwine. Drums kick in, propelling the music forward into a frenetic dance party. You can hear the twang and the playfulness as they get carefree and nonchalant.
Frontman Sam takes center stage with his clear, light, soothing yet buoyant and husky vocals. He sings with a joyful abandon, his voice soaring effortlessly over the driving rhythm section. The lyrics are catchy and carefree, perfectly capturing the carefree spirit of the song.
The bridge ups the ante with the guitar coming quite close to our ears and riffing out their grooves catchily through the soundscape. It’s a moment of pure sonic indulgence, showcasing the band’s instrumental prowess. Then, with the drum building its taps, there comes a moment of revving silence and returns the song’s infectious instrumental dance party that you didn’t know you needed.
If you’re a fan of Arctic Monkeys’ swagger and The Beatles’ timeless melodies, then “Belong” is your new jam. Contemporary Club has crafted a song that’s both familiar and fresh, a perfect soundtrack for a summer day or a night out with friends. So let loose and prepare to belong to the groove.
