Post by: uberweiss on April 28, 2015, 04:18:21 PM
http://www.audiomack.com/song/urbane-peeps/dance-like-were-making-love

Written by Luke, Ciara and Theron Thomas, according to Ciara's Twitter (although ASCAP also lists Timothy Thomas & Cirkut).
https://twitter.com/ciara/status/592906312956178434

Lots of Luke across the album's songwriting credits. "Lullaby" (Luke/Cirkut/Ciara/Gamal Lewis/Theron Thomas), "Give Me Love" (Luke/Cirkut/Jacob Kasher/Gamal Lewis/Theron Thomas) and "Kiss & Tell" (Luke/Cirkut/Theron Thomas).

Some Luke affiliates on the album as well, such as Chloe Angelides and A.C.
Album comes out May 4th. Should be good.

The iTunes file says:

PS: I understand the thing about the sources, but it kind of pisses me off. Every forum member tries to share information about things we all are interested of...

Maybe someone is interested in all the credits from iTunes.

Btw - I think it's crucial always to give the source of the credits, as there are too many blogs etc. who do not mention where they have their material from.

WORD! Don't even understand how José could complain!
but I still don't get where you always take these iTunes credits from!? Where exactly can I find them if I don't buy the songs?

hmmmmm, this style just doesn't fit her in my opinion. she should stick to R&B/soul or maybe also some pop tracks. but not dance-pop :/ at least a good Dr. Luke & CIRKUT production. "funny" how she's only mentioning Dr. Luke all the time

From the actual iTunes files... ;)

And, based on the previews, I'm not that excited about this.
One Woman Army sounds a bit like Turn Up The Music by Chris Brown. Actually, if I remember well, her previous record was named "One Woman Army"... so we can assume the song was shelved.

Kiss & Tell and Dance Like We're Making Love are both just incredible. Really warm yet understated, and total MDMA effect - just really intimate and full of love.

Give Me Love has reaaaaally good verses, and is a nice song, but pretty generic and very dated.

Lullaby is just... awful? Really boring melodies, a 'Dilemma' rip-off, nothing interesting going on. Not often I hear a total Dr. Luke dud. Maybe with more listens...

The rest of the album is basically unlistenable (easily her worst), except "I Bet" and "All Good" which is a really interesting song and a lot of fun. Some nice production ideas going on there.

Those Dr. Luke's song are just ok. The only one I like is Dance Like We're Making Love. I hate to say this (he's my favorite) but looking at the songs he's worked on recently and compering to those hits he'd made before, I think he can be burnt out. They should get together with Max more often!

maybe Dr. Luke's taste is just more various than yours ::)
if he was burnt out he wouldn't have made all these tracks ...

album is indeed amazing! unfortunately the Diane Warren ballad got destroyed by heavy auto tune usage. if you can't sing, don't do a ballad :-\

Lol I agree most of his tracks on this album aren't that great for his standards.
Even Dance Like We're Making Love sounds like a watered down version of Can't Stop Dancing production wise.
Title: Re: Ciara - Dance Like We're Making Love (Dr. Luke)
Post by: j.fco.morales on May 01, 2015, 11:49:37 PM
I'm currently listening.

You can clearly hear Ester Dean singing the hook on That's How I'm Feeling.
The chord progression in Lullaby is very similar to Patti Labelle's Love Need and Want You... sampled many times -Nelly's Dilemma, Lloyd's Lay It Down (that one is really good), etc-.

Who A&R'd this? Played safe as hell. The crunk trend is SO dated and they stuck to it with Ciara.

I don't know why, but with voices like hers -that are more about the vibe than about voice control- I tend to think straight forward sonically and production wise.
To me, Ciara is like a lite version of Janet Jackson or maybe Aaliyah, but less edgy. And her best attempt of being edgy was "Promise", which to me is the best song off her catalogue.

I'll give the album some few more spins.

definitely get Janet vibes here and there. the Luke tracks are the best on the album, yet, they're nothing incredibly special. when you hear Becky G's Lovin' So Hard right next to a Luke song from Jackie, there's a clear delineation between which song is sonically more dynamic; lyrically, production-wise, vocally, etc. definitely very safe for Ciara.

my favs are Lullaby and Kiss & Tell.

I'm looking at the charts and couple years ago he'd have 3,4 songs in the top 10. That's the fact. The bar is incredibly high for him.
I really hope he'll be back!
