Detroit musician Sam Austins returns with new single ‘Smoke break’.
The songwriter has constructed his own lane, meshing together Detroit club sounds – in particular an enduing fascination with ghetto-tech – alongside future-facing pop production aspects. Having escaped the clutches of a major label, his independent ethos struck gold with the impeccable, anthemic single ‘Seasons’.
New single ‘Smoke Break’ bubbles with energy, fusing together subtle R&B aspects into the hyper-percolated club beats.
A sense of nervous vigour pervades the track, with Sam’s vocal displaying huge restraint.
A potent step forwards, ‘Smoke break’ comes equipped with a stark live clip, emphatic in its taut simplicity.
Tune in now.
