Anonymous digital artist and songwriter OWBY returns with his new single, “Closer”, an evocative track that merges melancholic New Wave, 00s R&B, and modern electro.
“Closer” follows in the footsteps of “BREATH” by The Blaze, serving as a spiritual sequel to the narrative of lovers facing uncertainty and seeking meaning. It’s a deeply emotional piece that inspires hope, emphasizing how time and perseverance can lead to personal growth and brighter days ahead. Infused with a signature beat and intricate melodies reminiscent of The Blaze, OWBY bridges the two tracks by infusing his own unique style with Gospel elements. The result? An anthem for life’s transformative moments.
Produced in collaboration with Swiss producer Otis Birdy, Closer reflects a broad range of influences, including Depeche Mode, Daft Punk, Stromae, Timbaland, and Kanye West.
Over the past few years, OWBY has carefully curated a diverse array of inspirations, which he masterfully incorporates into his music. His sound defies genre labels, yet is instantly recognizable by his emotive vocal delivery and lyrics, telling stories that resonate on a deeply human level – whether about love or more profound societal issues.
Beyond the music, OWBY is expanding his creative universe, building a multifaceted project that spans music, merchandise, virtual reality, and other immersive formats. His vision extends beyond traditional boundaries, offering fans a fully immersive experience that merges technology and storytelling.
