There’s an air of serenity and relief that pervades Darren Ashley‘s latest Monday Juice track, “Move”, not least thanks to a very peculiar sound that’s incorporated into the melody halfway through. The sound is somewhat similar to the one you’d get when you’re relieving yourself in the loo and your ejected fluids coalesce with the water below. That refreshing sense of liberation during toilet trips is perfectly captured in “Move”, though we are sure that wasn’t the intention.
Darren’s audio creations tend to be so incredibly unique that it is difficult to describe in words, and his latest Monday offering is no different. “Move” seems inspired by lots of water, a squeeze of lemon and the beach during summertime, with some classical Indian influences here and there wrapped into a riveting electronic beat. We could be very wrong.
Lyrically, the song is dedicated to all the dancers out there. It paints a picture of someone- back from the mundane and stressful daily grind- gaining catharsis by losing herself to dance.
Honestly, the man deserves to hog far more of the spotlight considering his tremendous talent. If you agree, do follow Darren Ashley’s Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, SoundCloud and Youtube accounts to show your support!
In case you are interested, here are the lyrics for Darren Ashley’s “Move”:
She takes in the open sky
The stars in her eyes they shine
But she don’t wanna watch life go by
She don’t wanna watch life go by
Back from the grind breaking to pieces
Wipe off the sweat and let all her senses go
Heart on the line head in the riches
But will it ever stop
But she don’t care cuz she’s got all her bigger dreams
She always said that love is stronger than it seems
And even if her world caved in she’d have her means
Inside her head she’ll dance the night away
She takes in the open sky
The stars in her eyes don’t lie
But she don’t wanna watch life go by
She don’t wanna watch life go by
Cuz life is but you and me
We all search for unity
But till then she close her eyes
Till then she close her eyes
And then she dance
