Joseph Ray & Elliot Vast - A Power Over Me

Joseph Ray, a GRAMMY-winning producer and member of the electronic trio NERO, has unveiled his latest EP titled 'A Power Over Me' following the successful release of singles including 'Blue Nights', 'Cos Of You', and 'Give Me A Reason'.

The EP features new single ‘A Power Over Me’, featuring Elliot Vast's thought-provoking vocals complemented by delicate piano melodies and groove-filled percussion. Joseph’s expansive production style, which has garnered support from esteemed artists including DJ Kobe, Solomun, Pete Tong, Huneee, and more, is prominently displayed throughout the five-track EP.

The artwork for the EP borrows from the iconic ‘90s UK nightlife photography of Dave Swindells, serving as a nod to the pulsating energy of UK house and jungle music that has influenced Joseph Ray’s latest EP.

“I remember seeing Dave's Ibiza '89 book a while back and loving the imagery. Anjuna had been in touch with him more recently, and it was great to find out he'd be open to providing some of his photography as artwork for the EP. The images of people lost in the music, vintage and euphoric seemed to fit the music perfectly.” - Joseph Ray

The EP’s singles, including ‘Blue Nights’, ‘Cos Of You’, and ‘Give Me A Reason’, have amassed over 400,000 streams and plays on KissFM, KCRW and Slam!FM. This is in addition to Joseph’s 2021 collaborative album ‘Leave the Bones’, written and recorded with Haitian band Lakou Mizik. The album has been celebrated by the likes of NPR, Pitchfork, BBC Radio 1, BBC 6 Music, Worldwide FM, Billboard and The Times and showcased just how versatile Joseph is to an international audience.

I played this song on my kayak along with my toddler and dog. I was hugging them so tightly then we jammed to this music. I will never forget that moment <3

Lyrics

Found something I’ve never felt
A love so true it healed my soul

Such a power unknown before
I’m the clay for you to mold

Saw something inside you
A love so true for me to see
Such a power unknown before today
I’m the puppet on your string

‘Cause you’ve got a power over me
No way to halt your energy
You’ve got a power over me
No way to halt your energy

‘Cause you’ve got a power over me
No way to halt your energy
You’ve got a power over me
No way to halt your energy

...over me
...over me
...over me

‘Cause you’ve got a power over me
No way to halt your energy
You’ve got a power over me
No way to halt your energy

...over me
...over me
...over me
...over me
