Deadmau5 vs. Melleefresh : 'Attention Whore'
Released: 14th September 2009
Label: Play Records
Melleefresh isn’t just an ‘Attention Whore,’ she’s a bitch of cyber proportions. Not my words, but hers. She’s delicious, viscous and oh so scene. Then she’ll make you itch and have a wet dream. Sounds painful, right? Well yeah, she can make you hurt too. And, all the time, she’s the “one you’re looking for.” Funny that.
Bitchiness pushed to the corner of the dance floor, Mellefresh has teamed up with Canadian Joel Zimmerman aka Deadmau5 for an electro house epidemic of a track. Creeping in with kaleidoscopic keyboards and swirling your senses with its sliding synths, you aren’t quite ready for the patronising, demanding yet child-like lyrics of Melleefresh.
With her Peaches-like demeanour it sounds like she’s caught only-child-syndrome (okay, it’s not a classified term, but you know what I mean, right). “I am the one with the velvet lips” she purrs, before edging into “I’m the big attention whore” – all the while the bleeping bass acts as background.
‘Attention Whore’ is definitely a demented dance ditty and if you like things harder, better, or faster, stronger, then the radio edit may tickle your pickle more. And, if your pickle isn’t tickled, or you’ve not had enough whorish attention, then the dirtier, whisper-warping, bass-ballooning Zoltan Kontes & Jerome Robins Bootylicious mix, may just be your cup of craving.
