I think basic is on the right track.  The two big classical theorems in analytic number theory whose classical proofs use some complex analysis are [Dirichlet's Theorem on primes in arithmetic progressions][1] and the [Prime Number Theorem][2].  (It is also useful to learn about the combination of the two: the [Prime Number Theorem for Arithmetic Progressions][3].)  

For the former, I can recommend my own lecture notes:

The second part is explicitly a digested version of the proof Serre presents in his *Course in Arithmetic*.  I don't have a similarly canonical reference to give you for the proof of the Prime Number Theorem (i.e., I don't have any notes on it!), but it can be found in many analytic number theory books, for instance in Apostol's *Introduction to Analytic Number Theory*, Davenport's *Multiplicative Number Theory* or G.J.O. Jameson's *The Prime Number Theorem*.
