Your Countdown

Santa Monica Pier, out now!

14 July 2017

It is with a great sense of pride that I'm releasing a new single on the 14th of July, called "Santa Monica Pier". I made this single as an ode to this amazing place, near Los Angeles. Together with my family I had the pleasure to visit this amazing place in December last year.

This song will be available on most commercial platforms, including iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify and others, but if you don't feel like purchasing or streaming I will also upload the song as a downloadable MP3 to Soundcloud short after the international release.

I hope you will like this track as much as I loved creating it. To me it honestly feels as if 10 years of Your Countdown-experiences came together in this track. It features the heavier bass-driven beats from Two.Zero and earlier, the typical atmospheres I created in Frozen Waves and the Melodies I refined in One Night Only.

If you're planning to check the single out when it drops I'd like to thank you. As a music creator it isn't easy to provide a kind of regular content, and as I'm leaving the latest era of Your Countdown called "One Night Only", I'm now entering the transition to the next thing. Recently I released "Home Is Where The Heart Is", a soundtrack-EP, and I also released "Comeback", a track I made with my good friend Jeroen. It is, however, difficult to say how these 3 releases will function in a possible future. I'm not ready to go in for an album just yet. If this song is the last one in a while I'd like to apologize. As soon as I believe something new is worthy to be heard you’ll find it, right here!
