Moon and Aries – “Closer to You”

I just discovered Moon and Aries’ new single Closer to You and wanted to share a few thoughts, and if you haven’t heard of them yet, they’re a duo made up of Jordana Moon from Canada and Tom Aries from Germany. They’ve been creating music together since 2021 and have already put out three full albums. What’s impressive is how they manage to work from different countries but still create music that feels so connected and cohesive.

Closer to You takes their sound in a darker, cinematic direction. The track has this smooth, hypnotic rhythm that instantly pulls you in from the first seconds. It’s got a bit of that noir-pop edge, with a slow tempo that gives it a late-night kind of energy. It reminded me of something you might hear in a stylish spy movie and stick in your head, where every note adds to the tension. The sound blends old-school elements with a modern touch, and it comes together in a really clean, confident way.

I like how naturally the song builds an atmosphere without trying to push too hard and makes you enjoy every monemt. It lets you feel what you want to feel, giving you room to interpret it in your own way. It has mystery and emotion, but it doesn’t overcomplicate anything. That balance is something Moon and Aries have always been good at, and Closer to You fits perfectly into their catalog. If you’re just discovering them, I’d definitely suggest listening to their earlier projects like “The Arrival” or “TRANSCENDENCE”.

Check out “Closer to You” when you get a chance, and make sure to follow Moon and Aries on social media to stay updated on everything they’re releasing next.
