“LMK” is off electro-R&B futurist Kelela Mizanekristos' debut album, Take Me Apart, on Warp Records. The track, produced by Jam City and Kwes, was released as a single in August, 2017, with the accompanying video directed by frequent Björk collaborator Andrew Thomas Huang.
Julianne Escobedo Shepherd said in her Pitchfork review of the album, “Like Björk did in her early solo days, Take Me Apart provides a template for how to innovate pop, incorporating a melange of influences — writing collaborators include the xx’s Romy Madley Croft, Brazilian Girls’ Sabina Sciubba, and Nguzunguzu’s Asma Maroof—while remaining divorced from the endless industry zeitgeist of big-name algorithm producers.”
This weekend Kelela is performing at Moogfest 2018 in Durham, North Carolina with much of the electronic music world. She will be performing in Vancouver at the Vogue Theatre on Sept. 14 as part of the Westward Music Festival.
