-----------
DJ Koze might be one of the world's best producers, but above all he's a DJ, and it's his DJ ear that governs. Just as in a great set, so with his releases: “Seeing Aliens” came out of nowhere, a big buzzing beast of a track, to announce that Koze was back on the scene and prime everyone for the coming album, knock knock. But now that Koze has your attention, it's time to remind everyone what's most important about club music, pull things back, take a turn to the left, and get deep into the groove.
Thus “Pick Up”: the second single from knock knock is 100% pure groove, doubly so in the extended 12” version. In a sense it's incredibly familiar - it is essentially a filter disco record, very close to something you could imagine coming out of Paris around the turn of the millennium. But of course, this is Koze. Nothing is normal or familiar in his world, and he's taken this most foundational of clubland staples into new territory. Flipping samples of Gladys Knight & the Pips “Neither One Of Us (Wants to Be the First to Say Goodbye)” and Melba Moore’s “Pick Me Up, I’ll Dance“, it creates something completely airborne, shot through with emotions such as gods must feel: not quite explicable to the human mind but strong enough to knock you off your feet. In its way it's absolutely as powerful as “Seeing Aliens”, but it comes in like the proverbial iron fist in a glove of velvet.
Music taken from the Album "knock knock“ - Release date: May 4th, 2018

[@RafaPmore]

I used to listen to this song every night before going to sleep while I was studying abroad. After a day of hanging out with the most amazing people from all over the world, the words "it's sad to think, I guess neither one of us wants to be the first to say goodbye" hit really hard. Now that I am back home, this song brings me a lot of great memories. Walking through the streets of a little town called Ormskirk after a drunk karaoke night, staying up to see the sunrise and getting high with my new friends. This song will have a very special and lovely place in my heart forever.

[@drkdrumz]

Neither One of Us by Gladys Knight & The Pips... At a whole other level! That's the original song.

[@michaelsofine]

"I guess neither one of us wants to be the first to say goodbye" good shit man

[@MAMP]

Nothing like a good old fashioned disco loop that is catchy as fck.

I instantly thought of Daft Punk 3 seconds into the track

[@johnnyb5773]

I cry everytime, out of joy, sadness or both… Either way it opens my heart and soul. Beautiful.

Authentic French Touch was made in 2018. Brilliant.

[@itsjuanpacheco]

I love how even though it’s lyrics are sad, there’s something uplifting about this song. Like it’s not a “goodbye”more like a “see you later”. I love it.

[@sherrysyed]

So true!

[@gamec0re141]

Air to earth!

[@AgnesOlivo]

one of the best music videos ever

[@thomasfranco5997]

Has anyone heard DJ Koze's new track Wespennest featuring Sophia Kennedy. Another Awesome Dance Track.

[@Oliver_Riveros]

Teziutlán, Puebla, Noviembre 2018 dentro en un atardecer de una gran fiesta muy comercial, La zona donde esta ubicada Teziutlán ni siquiera existe la ensena House ya que somos solo 2 o 3 DJs que tomamos este hermoso genero. Fui a un cumpleaños promedio donde el DJ solo ponia cosas comerciales y el top 100 de mi querido México, De repente empezó a cambiar el estilo de musica lentamente y cuándo puso este track en esa fiesta, Literalmente dropeo duramente en la pista de baile, Fue una hermosa noche esa vez y enserio me sorprendió mucho ver que una canción House pegaba duramente en una fiesta de ese tipo en un ciudad que es rarisimo escuchar esto.

[@pizzawithranch]

Music helps me escape the daily pressures of money, school, and family. It takes me out of the constant distraction and focus of the future and lets me enjoy the moment, the present. Music has always been there for me

[@Hondasboy1000]

I get that pal 😉

[@deanomontano4910]

Music like this just hits different

[@matthewgale5045]

...obsessed with music since i was 8, better than any drug, $€x, woman, clobber, football, cars, holudays etc, the 1 constant in my life... I was 46 other day...

[@ingela.e]

@@matthewgale5045 I feel the same way. 😊

[@christopherwilliams8104]

Well said 👍

[@BigSizzle258]

This song is perfect to explain a great first date, or the sadness of a loving but not lasting relationship coming to an end 👌

[@michelecoppola7202]

Exactly Staci…you got the point 😉

[@Thekijuju]

This comment is literally the first half of my 2022. Currently going thru the ending part of a bittersweet friendship and this song really plays well with this. I'm not sad but I did appreciate what happened. :')

[@JanMironGabrielMedak]

Breaks my heart. Stunning. Mesmerising. 🤍🙏🏻🌼

[@Marioprofundo]

This makes me nostalgic about a place and time I never lived, if I make sense

[@ukaszsokoowski1437]

[@talentgumede452]

DEFINITELY a closing track around 4am

[@gocuk925]

Who's closing at four? 😁

[@ivanskabic6359]

10am😂

[@debradempsey8431]

Love this! I am older than most here and this is beautifully orchestrated tune. Groovin' to the groove....

[@SuperJinxter]

Heard this on the radio for the first time two months ago, had it rolling in my head without knowing what it was. I tried internet searches with the Gladys Knight lyrics(?) and still couldn’t find it. I then heard it in a club in Manchester, Shazammed it, and now I find out it’s five years old. 😂 What a great track though.

[@paleodan]

I'm hearing "Music Sounds Better with You." (Twenty years later is a great time for French House to come back!)

[@mehditajouri2796]

paleodan I completely agree with you. Fist time I heard this track I went back 20 years ago with Music Sounds better with you..

[@veggie42]

I said this too!

[@waynedarkninja509]

You nailed my good man. Knew there was something in there that got me hooked. Bravo sir bravo.

[@Smetaniza]

I can't believe why everybody's going off about the track so much... it really sounds like an old dp bside...

[@raymondlesiak]

yes deffo that feel but the production levels on this suck ass, altho i do like the track

[@VarskDarkness]

holy shit this was made in 2018. i thought this was made in the late 90s or early 2000s. really captured that sound!

[@fullfunk]

need more tracks like this revival of french hausesss

[@jules850]

Yes indeed!!

[@solongyouth]

Sorry to be pedantic, but this track has been doing the rounds for about 3 years, so it definitely wasn't made in 2018.

[@flowinsounds]

that's because it is literally a recording of a 90's record, remixed with a new vocal

[@falkerhard]

Same! That is why I came here to double check.

[@bbreiner12]

Best feeling is sitting on a lonely beach watching the sunset listening to this song as the waves touch your feet gentle while smoking a joint knowing that a great summer party night awaits!

[@emilianhrx5770]

[@bonbonbonbons]

​@@roasty80no, I'm pretty sure she only sings it in the live version. listen to the orginal sample and it is the exact same

[@riquelmeone]

You think the song is already kicking hard from the first moment and then more and more tracks are dropping making it go from thermo-nuclear to interstellar What a song

[@r.a.gstudios1164]

Second sky Nuture brought me here

[@vanhaze2000]

This is what music is all about: Goose Bumps. This track hits me right in the Soul. Thank you so much for giving me such warm feelings when listening !

[@lukasruhland5457]

It's got a daft-punky vibe to it, superb track.

[@pronke01]

And you’re right as they used samples from “Music Sounds Better with You” - Stardust / Daftpunk 😃

[@vallei]

@@pronke01 actually he did not. The main loop youre hearing is from a song called "Pick me up I'll dance" and the vocals are Gladys Knight :)

[@djsimonrossprice9400]

very clever video.. very good song.. brought happy tears to my eyes.. thank you for making this song

[@chantixxxagmail]

My Oh my..💥 Can't hear this without my emotions trampolining through The Glorious Groovy Days of the Past.. I still feel not enough memories were made though, but we have been infinately Blessed for having experienced The Best of them, together. The whole atmosphere is like a warm breeze of the most sincerest of intentions, leaving nothing left but such Sweet Total Surrender to those sensational States of Higher Consciousness.. FREELY beloved, we would soon start to move in sync, we would dance forever as One, until ultimately and absolutely blown mindlessly full ÌN Love Itself 💓.. carried away by that unequivically quivering Voice of Gladys. Oh My.. and the lyrics.. always the deepening meaning of her words.. We felt it all, we gave our all, and we really HAD it all... each and every time and all over again..!! But eventhough this groove has captured endless Blissful Memories that will never leave my mind, because they were meant to LAST, The Love within could not hold on to 'us', not by any song.. and now ALL is left in the PAST.. So.. I guess you can imagine why I can't ever stop this music, from bringing The💝Memories of our 28 yrs together, all back.. 💞Our Love as Lost it's Home, but thank God🙏, we STILL do have our most "Unforgettable"👑 #No.1 House💜Track‼️😍 ("And..GET with the beat!") Big hugs from Chantal, still living & loving life after ALL🌺

[@none_afk8489]

This song will always give me memories of my grandpa’s house. I love the life i have with each mistake and the future that its coming love to you all people going on a bad moment all my suport even if its just a Message. Love u
