Count Counsellor releases downtempo post-party track “Open Eyes”
“Open Eyes” is the sterling follow up to Count Counsellor’s “Friends”, taken from the forthcoming EP "& The Friday Friends".
Ethereal bliss, brazen pop hooks and dance music fundamentals all collide in Count Counsellor’s new offering “Open Eyes”. A surprising sample of Boyz II Men fits perfectly alongside the warped vocal line whilst joyous synthesis gives one a feeling of profound contentment.
