OSCAR LOUIS FIND A WAY

Introducing NYC-based Canadian musician Oscar Louis with new single ‘Find A Way’ which is all about inner-belief and perseverance; we could all do with a little of that these days. As he puts it, this song “is about feeling trapped. In the last year, I’ve grown more in tune with the gentle persistent voice, the one underneath blaring sirens of self-doubt; the one telling me to keep going." Overall, ‘Find A Way’ is a laid-back setting for Oscar’s soothing croon which orates melodically over a delicious funk bassline, warped strings and internet-era hip-hop beats. The production here is spacious, allowing for those dramatic piano chords to reverberate across the soundscape. As the track develops, we’re reminding of other alternative tracks like Speelberg’s ‘Headlights’ or Still Woozy’s ‘Lava’. Safe to say, Oscar Louis can make himself at home on TMR. - Hannah Thacker
