J.M.K.E. started back in the 80's as kind of dissidents in Estonia, the former republic of Soviet Union.
They were engaged by Finnish record label Stupido Twins, where they record their debut album Külmale Maale - To The Cold Country (i.e. Siberia) in 1989. This unique mix of innovative hardcore music with untypically strong melodies and meaningful political lyrics even got them into the charts in Finland and Estonia. Maximum Rock'n Roll called them simply "Absolutely excellent".
Their second album Gringode Kultuur and the third project, a CD called Sputniks in Pectopah, which featured punked-up versions of old Russian revolutionary songs, were also released in Central Europe by the German label Cuacha.
Meanwhile, the political situation had changed: the former enemy (Soviet Union) was gone and Estonia was independent again, but J.M.K.E. had not softened. The capitalist society did not prove to be a paradise for the thinking man's punk rocker...
So J.M.K.E. stayed true to its punky roots which are very well present on their fourth album Jäneste Invasioon. Many claimed it to be their best offering since their acclaimed debut. Jäneste Invasioon, full of fierce energy and even spiced with ska-rhythms, also celebrated J.M.K.E`s 10th birthday.
It was followed by the first real J.M.K.E. -collection Totally Estoned, out through our funny friends in Germany, Tug Records...
J.M.K.E got their 5th studio-album, Öhtumaa Viimased Tunnid , The Last Days of Occidentia out in the spring of 2000. The fierce hardcore on the album proved that a punk-band can go on for nearly 15 years without losing it's teeth on the way...
The 6th album Ainult planeet was issued in 2002 and it can hardly be said that they loose any of their energy.
The latest issue up today is the Mälestusi Eesi NSV-st CD which came out in 2006. This album contains re-recorded songs from their early work which were already issued on the "Rumal nali" tape in the 80s. The new CD contains the material in a much more modern style.
The original lineup consisted of
Mati Pors - vocal,
Villu Tamme - guitarr,
Tarvo Hanno Varres - bass,
Venno Vanamölder - drumms

J.M.K.E. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
J'ai pas fait le coup du mec busy la veille
Tu occupes assez mon temps
Pas moi apparemment
Je sais que ma présence est parfois un peu pesante
Ouai dans certain moment je perds tous mes moyens
Je m'souviens plus des mots
Et parfois autres choses
Je pense pt'être à une autre
Tu aimerais me rendre jaloux mais moi j'suis pas dingue
Je sais qu'à certains moments tu cachais tous tes chagrins
Je crois que maintenant c'est bon c'est carré
A partir de maintenant j'vais plus laisser passer
J'vais pas faire la manche tu as assez joué
T'sais qu'à certains moments j'voulais laisser tomber
Je connais tous tes penchants pour joindre les deux bouts
Tu sais que t'étais là seule avec qui je parlais de tout
Tes sentiments pour moi me paraissent plus que flous
J'aimerais juste un matin te sentir sur mon pouls
( Je crois que maintenant c'est bon c'est carré
A partir de maintenant j'vais plus laisser passer
J'vais pas faire la manche tu as assez joué
T'sais qu'à certains moments j'voulais laisser tomber )
The Chinese lyrics of the song "Moments" (邂逅瞬间) by J.M.K.E speaks about someone waiting for their crush to appear at a train station, describing the moment they lay eyes on each other as a reawakening of their love. The lyrics are rich with imagery, using metaphors such as "a second that's longer than a thousand years" to describe how time stands still in the anticipation of seeing their beloved.
The song also touches upon the theme of loneliness, with lines such as "endlessly looking for true love but losing my sense of direction" and "getting used to long, prolonged solitude." The arrival of the beloved is described as a moment of intense emotion that shakes the singer out of their loneliness and into warm embrace.
Overall, "Moments" is a song about the excitement, hope, and fear that comes with romantic encounters, and how even a brief moment of connection can change everything.
