Alaish and FRANKIE OCTOBER have made a tune you can feel, not just hear. Their most recent pairing, “Make me feel,” is a sensual indie R&B gem that takes you to a place of intimacy, connection, heart, and soul.
“Make me feel” draws you in with soft, seductive synths and a groove that floats in space. The track is an invitation to float in your emotional cosmos, carried by the hypnotic vocals of two truly gifted masters. Alaish and FRANKIE OCTOBER bring together a sweet tone and storytelling that’s hard to resist as it draws through the track.
The song begins with a lyrical idea that ignites immediately. It’s a metaphorical space reflective of a deep, intimate connection. With a celestial theme that opens to something greater than the physical, sensual undertones draw the listener in even closer. It’s a sly metaphor for the fact that relationships of both the emotional and romantic variety can feel like a journey into the unknown, a realm where time and distance disappear.
The production is undeniably dreamy, every instrumental layer a hug. The fragile synths sit well on the smooth rhythm, and the whole feel is hushed, almost private. It’s the sort of song that feels timeless, simultaneously flowing indie, R&B, and alternative influences into something that excites and soothes.
It’s ultimately a song about connection that goes below the surface to the emotional core. The further along the song goes, the more the lyrics urge you to be in the moment and experience the feeling of a shared moment between two souls. It is a trip worth taking that will make you wish for another.
