The melodic chemistry of Toronto-based duo Smoothe Hours (Shawn Dawn and Ty Dawn) is sparked by the curious nature of things that transpire after dark. Paired with moody chord progressions and pads fused with R&B and trap production, their sound uniquely personifies the often sexy and sometimes suspicious doings of the night.
New single, “Red Room,” conveys the seriousness of love, creating passion and intimacy, and the natural desire to seek sexual fulfilment. Sending out an invite to the Red Room can be compared to a primal instinct of human nature – the mating call.
