SUPER-Hi x NEEKA Are ‘Following The Sun’ In Their Most Recent Drop

‘Following The Sun’ is the new single from SUPER-HI x NEEKA, and it feels like a gorgeous day in the height of summer: a sun-drenched jaunt with the people you love most. It’s the perfect track to get you in the mood for warmer weather, which will *hopefully* be coming our way any time soon!

The music video for ‘Following The Sun’ is the perfect match for the song as well. We follow two friends as they take a road trip in an open top car around the most stunning locations in what looks like the South Of France. They go swimming in secluded rock pools, and jump off high rocky cliffs into the azure ocean below. The bleached out quality of the footage evokes a nostalgic feeling; a longing for those days of leisure and endless summers.

SUPER-Hi is the side-project of the hitmaking production team, Red Triangle, known for their work with David Guetta, Charlie Puth, Alesso, and 5 Seconds Of Summer, among others. This talented crew create tracks which are both wistful and danceable, and ‘Following The Sun’ certainly fits this remit, with its glorious synths and irresistible ukulele groove underpinning the entire track. The track sees them collaborate with accomplished singer-songwriter duo NEEKA, who’ve worked with Drake and James Arthur, just to name two.

‘Following The Sun’ has a timeless quality that should find it played in a range of locations, be it clubs, beach bars, or at parties. Indeed, it’s already found its way to Gold Certification in both Germany and Australia, and after being a radio playlist stalwart across Europe, is repeating the process in Australia and New Zealand. The numbers it commands are breathtaking: to date ‘Following The Sun’ has garnered 135 million streams, reaching the Spotify Top 200 in Australia, New Zealand, France, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Czech Republic, and Slovakia, as well as the Shazam Top 200 in 48 countries – including the #1 spot in Australia and #2 in New Zealand.
