Making music Bonomo Lemagass Get it Feel it Heard the music, improvised Started singing, harmonized Asked a female to jam with me Let's create a melody If you feel it, like i do Just throw your hands up and feel this groove Just forget your stress and strife This should make you feel alright Making music Sweet sweet music Oh music If you happen to be out And you hear a sound so tight Shake it off, it's the comfort zone Let your rag and bone man move along Feel the power of a song With human voices, no metronome Get united in a groove The excitement breaks the roof Making music Sweet sweet music Oh music Floating on a tidal wave Of emotions, like a slave To the rhythm and the vibe Music gets me high Do your thang...

Werq On my way to work I got a funny feeling Like a monkey on my back climbing up the ceiling Can't explain what came over me All I feel is a mental block and insecurity He said, she said, boy, hold that sucker-down Instead of running all over town Freaky playing coy shooting cupids down One by one until they're lying bleeding on the ground Gonna make you werq for my lovin' Gonna make you werq for my huggin' Gonna make you werq for my lovin' Gonna you werq Now you get beserk Actlng all frustrated Me I'm turning cold And you're intimidated l repeat, no one's playing me I'd rather be alone than sorry, so won't you set me free My bad, I enjoy walking with a frown On my pretty pokerface, no one steals my crown Where's my dignity, why am I so weak? Guess my sorry ass will follow soon, but now I freak. Gonna make you werq for my lovin' Gonna make you werq for my huggin' Gonna make you werq for my lovin' Gonna you werq

about

Mavin is a Berlin raised Afro-Polish musician, songwriter, DJ and producer. Random Records is proud to present a special double A-side single off his epic electroni-pop LP, LOVE.

Mavin started working alongside American-born musician / producer Snax in his group Manhooker. This led to the duo forming a production and songwriting duo, BonomoLeMagass; one of the first results being ‘Making Music.’ Snax recalls, ‘We were writing tunes for other people in mind, but Mavin brought ‘Music’ to the table and insisted that this jam was for his album!’ Reflecting on the vibe they create together, Mavin adds, 'Snax dared me to be more open and in-your-face with my pop songwriting, plus to go into the whole new dimension of funk, soul and r&b.' Backed up by Snax’s guitar and keys, Mavin’s voice expounds on the joys of creation. Add additional vocal assistance from French songstress Marie-Ève Desjardins and American soul singer Adam Joseph, and the party was complete.

‘Making Music’ gets a serious remix workout. First up is Brazilian super producer and good friend Vermelho, serving up 80’s synth feels that’ll keep the roller skates turning. Swedish mix masters Per QX and Elias Bravo got next, kicking it up a notch with their signature in-your-face sound. Then BonomoLeMagass return, breaking it down with their ‘Dungeon Dub’, surely to heat up the more discerning (and sleazier) dance floors.

‘Werq’ sees Mavin collaborating with Berlin-based Canadian female powerhouse Deepa Lazercat. The inspiration for ‘Werq’ lies in the syncopated beat structures of the Freestyle/Boogie/Miami Bass genre from the early/mid 80’s, full of TR-808 kick drum and heavy synth bass. Close your eyes and you almost feel yourself catapulted straight to Fort Lauderdale! The lyrics of ‘Werq’ focus on that green eyed monster called jealousy, and is loaded with freaky, coy and sassy word-play.

Two classic house remixes, the ‘1989 Vocal Mix’ and ‘Deeper Dub,’ are created by Lazercat herself, reminiscent of Larry Heard/Fingers Inc., Sterling Void and Marshall Jefferson. Lazercat proves her expertise in several genres; effortlessly moving between styles in tandem Mavin’s voice and song-structure.
