Now, AMS is ready to emerge with their own original content. The crews first official single, "Places," seduces with vibrating synths, layers of airy vocals, and a booming rat-a-tat beat. The track almost immediately coaxes us into a hazy trance.

"Amsterdam our hometown consists of many different cultures who all bring their own sound to the city, so we took inspiration from many different styles," AMS wrote The FADER in an email. "This specific song was mostly inspired by our continuous travels around the world.
