PillowTalk’s Lil’T is back with a fresh, modern spin on an 80s classic, packed with remixes from top producers.  

Known as Lil’T, Michael Tello debuts his first solo single Don’t Make Me Wait! on Pillowtalk Music, giving fans a taste of his solo album, due in winter 2024. The track is a rework of the 1982 hit “Don’t Make Me Wait” by the New York group Peech Boys.  

Lil’T joins forces with Warren Bruce, aka Big $exy, to give the deep house classic a contemporary twist. The updated version combines Big $exy’s standout vocals with analogue bass lines, punchy beats, and synths that nod to Dr. Dre, creating a blend of classic and modern sounds that bridges generations of house music.  

Alongside the original, “Don’t Make Me Wait!” comes with three remixes ready for the dance floor. Paris-based producer The Mekanism adds his “Classique Remix”, taking listeners back to the garage house vibes of the early 2000s, giving a nostalgic spin on the track.  

Lil’T also puts his own stamp on it with the “Disco Revenge Mix”, mixing Big $exy’s vocals with Larry Levan’s original acapella for the Peech Boys, creating a tune that’s primed to become an underground dance floor anthem.  

Closing out the remix pack, Martin Pérez and Mario Polanco, the duo known as M&M, go deeper with their “After Dark Remix”. This tribal, tech-house version is designed to pull listeners into hypnotic, driving rhythms.
