Avoure and Haxxy Find Emotional Resonance on New Track “Like U”

There’s a quiet power in collaboration—especially when it bridges not just sounds, but shared histories. That’s what happens on “Like U,” the compelling new single from Ukrainian producers Avoure and Haxxy, out now via Biome Recordings. The track merges Avoure’s flair for cinematic melody with Haxxy’s precise, kinetic breakbeats, resulting in a fluid composition that never feels overworked. It’s not just a blend of style, but of states of mind—both artists carry emotional weight into the studio, and the result is a track that feels deliberately human.

Avoure, typically known for his midtempo, atmospheric house, pushes into unfamiliar terrain here, producing at 136 BPM for the first time. The increase in pace doesn’t dilute his emotive core—it recontextualizes it. His melodic instincts adapt well to the accelerated tempo, giving the track a sense of upward motion without abandoning introspection. In a space where speed often sacrifices depth, Avoure maintains control.

Haxxy, meanwhile, brings an urgency that isn’t just musical—it’s personal. The war in Ukraine looms over the production, not in an explicit way, but as a kind of low-frequency tension. There’s sorrow embedded in the breaks, and hope in the build-ups. The song becomes a conversation between resilience and vulnerability, a sonic dialogue between two artists trying to make sense of an ongoing crisis.

This isn’t a single that tries to grab attention through gimmicks or drops engineered for virality. “Like U” doesn’t shout; it lingers. And in doing so, it leaves a different kind of mark—one that suggests both Avoure and Haxxy are entering new phases of artistic clarity. Haxxy has hinted that a full-length album is on the way, and this track already feels like a cornerstone.

For those watching the evolution of post-2020 electronic music, especially from regions touched by conflict, “Like U” serves as both document and departure. It’s a step forward that never forgets where it’s coming from.
