Canadian artist Tommy La Croix † spent his formative years mixing impressive DJ sets to better understand the mechanics of sound blending. His work as a professional DJ provided him with a unique set of insights and an out-of-the-box yet familiar taste in rhythm. Now creating original works of his own, Tommy La Croix † dives headfirst into the vast world of production. Following three well-received singles “Danza De Trompeta,” “L’Espoir,” and “Requiem D’amour,” Tommy La Croix † unveils his debut album Requiem D’amour. A downtempo journey through world-inspired soundscapes, mystic reverb, and esoteric melodies, the genesis of Tommy’s catalog is an elegant point of departure. “El Camino” is tucked carefully into the 6-track album working as a centerpiece to a moving tapestry of culturally diverse harmonies. Guided by a simple, house-inspired beat “El Camino” is embellished with hypnotic maracas and sensual horn sections. A blissful facet of an atmospheric debut album, Requiem D’amour’s greatness is defined by the sum of its parts.
