Close To Monday ‘Pray’ – out now!

Close To Monday’s “Pray” is a meditation disguised as a song. The deliberate pacing and uncluttered percussion create an almost ritualistic cadence, inviting listeners into a space of stillness and focus. It’s music that feels less concerned with entertainment and more attuned to the subtle process of inner transformation.

The vocals are especially striking in their restraint. Ann delivers her lines with the intimacy of an inner dialogue, as though she is both confessing and consoling in the same breath. The repetition doesn’t fatigue—it soothes, like circling thoughts that slowly resolve into clarity. There’s a quiet emotional gravity here, one that resists drama but leaves a profound impact.

“Pray” reflects Close To Monday’s mastery of nuance in electronic music. In a genre often driven by energy and spectacle, the duo chooses a slower, more deliberate path. The result is a track that feels timeless, transcending trends in favor of emotional resonance. It’s a piece that demands presence from its listener, rewarding them with a rare sense of calm strength.
