Rob Dyson (FutureSoundsFM) In what is the clearest successor yet to debut, Into the Night, Tokyo Nights secures L'Avenue as one of synthwave's slickest and most consistently authentic producers. The attention to detail is on point, complex scores are smoothly delivered, and the choice of vocalists (only recently employed in his work) complement without obscuring the signature L'Avenue sound. Thematically, we're once again enveloped in a neon-lit world of vice and desire - and we disappear into a movie of our making. Favorite track: Shogun.

geology_penguin As someone mentioned during the livestream, listening to this album is like stepping into the world of Liam Wong's iconic TO:KY:OO photo book- towering neon signs, umbrellas like glistening upturned satellite dishes, inky shadowns and puddles brimming with liquid light- all captured in L'Avenue's signature synthesized style, another solid entry in the catalogue Favorite track: Kyoto Sunset.

Nicolas Dixon Favorite L’Avenue album and in an already dense catalog of classics, that’s saying something! The mood and atmosphere on this thing is so special and it creates such a vivid and rich world and story that you can’t help but wonder where is the film that this is taken from! Favorite track: Never Die.

Michael League i prefer L'avenue's introspective, delicate sound. This album is the best so far imo. I love getting lost in the different layer he created in Tokyo Nights tbh. This is not just an exercise in production, which, once again, is silky, smooth, elegant and distinctive but there is substance, material and feeling. Music/songs and that's what matters to me. Top notch!

I wake up to the sun Recalling two were one I can’t shift it from mind ... Tokyo nights, neon lights Are the only thing that can save me now ... In Tokyo, I let you go In the falling snow Where did you go? After Tokyo Pools of light reflect this shell A hollow heart, a temple bell Ringing out into the night ... An’ like a child who’s lost inside his world I try to press rewind Just hoping to see your face again Through the fragments of my mind In Tokyo, I let you go In the falling snow Where did you go? After Tokyo In Tokyo, a cold wind blows I have to know Where did you go?

Never die ... Fear is your enemy and also your best friend Do not fear death Do not regret what you have done Don’t worry, all the stars are aligned Free your paradise Gion Shojya I will protect you Warrior in a garden You’re the chosen one Never die ...

And as the night draws in And the city sleeps I see a shadow of you As I walk these lonely streets And as the dusk light fades Across the borderline There’s an empty space Like a photograph left behind I want it (your touch), I need it (your touch), I miss it (your touch), Got to have it (your touch) I want it (your touch), I need it (your touch), I miss it (your touch), Somehow lost it (your touch) Reflections in the rain Streetlight glow I can hear your voice Just an echo, fading slow And as these moments phase I feel lost and out of time I wonder where you are Beneath this black skyline I want it (your touch), I need it (your touch), I miss it (your touch), Got to have it (your touch) I want it (your touch), I need it (your touch), I miss it (your touch), Somehow lost it (your touch) Adlibs (Chorus repeat) Adlibs
