Take Me a_Part, the Remixes (stylized in all caps) is a remix album by American singer and songwriter Kelela, released on October 5, 2018. The album consists of reworkings of songs from Kelela's debut studio album, Take Me Apart (2017), from DJs and producers such as Kaytranada, Rare Essence, Serpentwithfeet, and more.

Release

The album was announced on September 12, 2018, alongside the "LMK (What's Really Good)" remix featuring Princess Nokia, Junglepussy, Cupcakke and Ms. Boogie.[1] The album was released on October 5, 2018, making it one year since the release of Take Me Apart.[2] Kelela contributed new vocals to several of the tracks, with the goal of creating "something far more evolved than the average remix collection."[3]

In a press release, Kelela stated:[4]

This project has been evolving in my mind since I was deep in recording Take Me Apart. I obsessed over production choices on the album and my only solace was knowing that the songs would be reimagined in this way [...] so, it's not just a bunch of remixes...it's how my worldwide community of producers and DJs communicate through difference. It's also about the camaraderie that we experience when we find the overlaps. The same songs get to exist in these alternate realities which means different people get to have a relationship with the music. Maybe even with each other.

On September 26, Kelela released Kaytranada's remix of "Waitin" as the second single from the album.[5][6]
