Avenue is the relatively new project of Sam Willows, a 21-year-old out of Toronto. Under this moniker, he’s making some great remixes that have caught a lot of attention. Well now he’s decide to make something of his own, and make his mark with his own songs.
One listen to his new single “Hot Slow Wind” will have you hooked. It’s tailor made for some late night listening, appropriate for a late night drive down the highway, or even alone in your room with your favorite headphones on. It’s the sort of song that feels fresh but also familiar, in the most welcoming sense of the word. This one just grooves and grooves. Those seductive driving synths remind me a great deal of some of Chromatics work. A compliment in the fullest degree.
It will be included on his debut EP Keep Counting, which will be released at the top of 2016 on January 8, via Dine Alone Records. Enjoy a stream, posted below.
