In the music world, collaborations between artists often take months to plan. Still, Australian singer-songwriter Oliver Cronin and Croatian-German DJ/producer Topic have proven that sometimes the best music comes from following your instincts.
Their new song, "1, 2, 3," set to release on December 22, 2023, is an upbeat dance-pop anthem that feels both spontaneous and fresh. The collaboration started when Topic reached out to Cronin through social media, and just hours later, they found themselves working together in the studio. The outcome? A lively and emotional track that showcases Cronin's heartfelt vocals paired with Topic's signature dance beats. For Oliver Cronin, this isn't just any collaboration, it's a significant moment in his career. "1, 2, 3" is his first dance track and marks his fifth release of the year, highlighting his unique sound that blends different music styles. Cronin's expressive singing perfectly matches Topic's polished nighttime sound, making it an excellent choice for both personal listening and lively festival performances.
Topic, known for creating songs that balance grief with dancefloor joy, felt they had something special right from the start. We were going to create some content together, but after making "1, 2, 3", I played it for friends that day, and they loved it. We knew it had to be released.
