After the huge crossover success of the original back in 2006, the artist formerly known as Joey Negro, Dave Lee has reworked one of the biggest tracks of his career into an original Disco anthem. Keeping the peak time energy up but injecting more Chic-esque Funk than you can shake your rump to, there was only ever one person who could elevate the original into a modern disco classic. Taka Boom’s powerful vocals still soar away but this time it’s over crisp Clav licks, effortless rhythm Guitar, sublime Piano, and sharp Synth work all underpinned by some sultry disco bass guitar action.
Unlike many crossover hits 'Make a Move on Me' hasn’t been overly remixed, in fact, this is the first remix since it hit the pop chart. Irresistible dancefloor action all round here, an essential Z Records release.

~lyrics~
ud rather live to please
and die a virgin
said u wanna go see the world
but ur stuck at work
i wanna take it serious
and take it slow
said i wanna make it to christmas
but i fall off the bone
and i could wish he hears this
but when he does i wont
id rather live to please
the lips beneath his nose
if u could go anywhere where would u go?
if u could go anywhere where would u go?
if u could go anywhere would u wanna stay here?
if u could go anywhere where would u go?
if u could go anywhere where would u go?
if u could go anywhere would u wanna stay?
and when the wind whistles ull wake up unlucky again
with none of ur things
ur bandmates ur lovers and friends

Flash in the Pan

Dream Sequence

I found myself the only girl in town
The only one who's willing to take you in
There's ash in the air, raining money everywhere
You take my keys and we go for a spin

I tell my boyfriend "Nothing in the world can make me feel okay"
Everytime I drink I have too much too fast
Tonight I booked a hotel room a hundred miles away from everything
Out of fear I might've sent him to the past

Tonight I almost told another lie
'Cause all I wanna do is get fucked up
Waiting for the angels to come down
They take my hand and drag me to the club

I tell my boyfriend "Nothing in the world can make me feel alive"
Everytime I drink I have too much too fast
Last night I had a dream he left me half asleep and drunk behind the wheel
On the way back home, I miss a turn and crash

Tonight I almost told another lie
'Cause all I wanna do is get fucked up
Waiting for the angels to come down
They take my hand and drag me to the club

The wings that let me fly don't seem to work
The things that bring me joy drive me to tears
The things that made my world can't be reversed
The day I'm out of work and out of peers

Tonight I almost told another lie
'Cause all I wanna do is get fucked up
Waiting for the angels to come down
They take my hand and drag me to the club

I tell my boyfriend "Nothing in the world can bring me back to life"
I'd do anything to feel it for the first time
And I feel like the angels pulled a joke on me
They laugh and turn their backs
They leave the club and set the place on fire
I couldn't make it out there fast enough
The girls, they tell me I'm all out of love

[Chorus]
Ayy
No pressure
I need you to know you're the one that I'm after
I know you don't know me
But that doesn't matter
I promise it's safe
Babe
Just call me your master
I'll make it work faster
The faster you run
Babe
I'll run even faster
The faster you come
Babe
I'll come even faster
I know you don't know me
But that doesn't matter
I promise it's safe
Babe
Just call me your master

[Verse 1]
What do you mean?
You said you're in control
Of all your fantasies
You think I won't know
You think you know me
So where you wanna go?
No need to be discreet
I need you to know
You're my type
Don't you wanna ride?
This ain't overnight
Got it overnight
What do you mean?
You said you're in control
Of all your fantasies
You think I won't know

[Pre-Chorus]
I need you to know
I need you to know

[Chorus]
Ayy
No pressure
I need you to know you're the one that I'm after
I know you don't know me
But that doesn't matter
I promise it's safe
Babe
Just call me your master
I'll make it work faster
The faster you run
Babe
I'll run even faster
The faster you come
Babe
I'll come even faster
I know you don't know me
But that doesn't matter
I promise it's safe
Babe
Just call me your master

[Verse 2]
You think you know me
But I could show you more
Don't leave me lonely
Don't walk out the door
So
Where you wanna go?
No need to be discreet
Just let me know
I need you to know
You're my type
Don't you wanna ride?
This ain't overnight
Got it overnight
What do you mean?
You said you're in control
Of all your fantasies
You think I won't know

[Pre-Chorus]
I need you to know
I need you to know

[Chorus]
Ayy
No pressure
I need you to know you're the one that I'm after
I know you don't know me
But that doesn't matter
I promise it's safe
Babe
Just call me your master
I'll make it work faster
The faster you run
Babe
I'll run even faster
The faster you come
Babe
I'll come even faster
I know you don't know me
But that doesn't matter
I promise it's safe
Babe
Just call me your master

No Pressure

[Lyrics]
I got 68 inches of the music in me waiting
I could be your girl, all I ever wanna be
If I'm not dancing all night, then I might just leave 
You got what it takes to write a song 'bout me

I'm outside waiting for you
And at the same time I'm behind the deck kicking in the floor
You said that nobody's gonna keep up to speed?
You got business fuckin' with a girl like me

So what if I like you?
What if I told you I was all alone?
So what if I'm hoping it's you every time I check my phone?
So what if they judge you?
Boy, I could never put no one above you
And what if we told em?
Couldn't give less of a fuck who walks in

You wanna know the color of my bra
You want my candy with the cherry on top
I got what you need, you got what I want
I can't tell a single soul what we got

I got 68 inches of the music on me, baby
We could hit the lights if you wanna set the scene
If I'm not dancing all night, then I might just leave 
You got business fuckin with a girl like me

So what if I like you?
What if I told you I was all alone?
So what if I'm hoping it's you every time I check my phone?
So what if they judge you?
Boy, I could never put no one above you
And what if we told em?
Couldn't give less of a fuck who walks in

So clearly through the skeletons in your closet
I can see a future in you and me
Doves jump off the roof, then they hit the street
I don't need my friends, boy you got everything I need

I might book studio time just to get it on
Let the birds talk about us
They think they clever
I might just make my whole life about you
I'd put down the mic just to feel that way forever

You wanna know the color of my bra
You want my candy with the cherry on top
I got what you need, you got what I want
I can't tell a single soul what we got

So what if I like you?
What if I told you I was all alone?
So what if I'm hoping it's you every time I check my phone?
So what if they judge you?
Boy, I could never put no one above you
And what if we told em?

Let me tell you something boy
'Fore the night ends
You got inches, you got years on me baby
Spin a different song if you can't catch up to speed
We were dancing last night to our own kind of beat
If there's nobody in the crowd what does that make me?
I'll be your girl from my voice to your feet
If I'm not dancing all night then I might just leave
I'll be your girl from my voice to your feet
You got business fuckin' with a girl like me

So What?

[Lyrics]
You make the city so hot, you can't break my heart
I think about what could've been
I might've loved you from the start
You make the city so hot, you can't break my heart
I think about what could've been
I might've loved you from the start

I don't want you to go
I could dance to you all night
I can't ever go
I wanna dance with you all night
Are you gonna let your feelings show
When they turn back on the lights?
Is you gonna take me home
Boy don't lie

(I don't give a fuck what they think 'bout us)
We just make music baby
(I don't give a fuck what they think 'bout us)
We just make music baby
(I don't give a fuck what they think 'bout us)
We just make music baby
I don't give a fuck what they think 'bout us
We just make music baby

Please God save me I just wanna party
Please God forgive me I just wanna
Please God save me I just wanna party
Please God forgive me I just wanna

Who can I tell the truth?
You make me feel myself
I gotta tell you boy I think that you're the one
And if I tell you the way you make me feel
Do you get the feeling that you might be the one?
Who can I tell the truth?
You make me feel myself
I gotta tell you boy I think that you're the one
And if I tell you the way you make me feel
Do you get the feeling that you might be the one?

You make the city so hot, you can't break my heart

Music Baby

Pullman - Kabul

Editions Mego welcomes KMRU back to the fold. Kin is Kenyan born, Berlin based, sonic wizard Joseph Kamaru’s second release on Editions Mego, following on from the classic 2020 release Peel. Since the release and subsequent praise for Peel, the artist has been a staple on the electronic scene performing on numerous stages and festivals worldwide in tandem with a flood of media recognition. Kin could be construed as the second child following Peel. The project came out of initial discussions with Peter Rehberg about what a Peel sequel would sound like. Kamaru is quick to clarify that Kin is not that record; “I'll know when that record will come and when I'll make it. It's already happening... or maybe it lives within both of these Mego records”.

It is this deft ambiguity and vague tiptoeing around the concrete that encapsulates the ambiguous sound world of Kamaru’s vision.

Kin was started early 2021 in Nairobi with Kamaru exploring his noisier palette of sounds encompassing distortions reminiscent of the sounds he would muster from in his youth when playing guitar. He paused making this record for a year as soon as Peter died, then slowly returned to it through 2022 resulting in the immense new work we have here.

The charms within Kin lay as Easter eggs revealing the true identity behind the colourful sonics only after multiple deep listens. With Trees Where We Can See sets the tone by way of a warm swaying melody inviting the listener in for further investigation. In 2022 KMRU and Mego stalwart Fennesz toured the USA together resulting in a strong friendship and also, the second track here, Blurred. A neat Mego/Editions Mego loop as such. Blurred arranges twangy guitar strums alongside glistening glaciers of shimmering drones. They Are Here represents a darker hue as melancholic clouds of shadowy noir tap directly into the listener's nerve stream. Maybe takes a detour into a bristling euphoric electronic storm whilst We Are screeches in a pattern formation not unlike a highly abstracted Aphex Twin forcing its way out of a hard drive. By Absence concludes proceedings, operating as both exit music and a portal to further sonic investigation with acoustic bellowing residing amongst a kaleidoscopic backdrop.

Kin is a trip that rewards close repeated listens as all the colours and textures, nuance and narratives unveil themselves. This isn’t a record to be glossed over, magic rewards concentration.

Kin is a record to be Played slow and LOUD.

For Pita.
