A song about looking ok on the outside

LYRICS:

You have to wait in line
You have to wait in line
Like you were told to
But you don't want to buy
No you don't want to buy
The life they sold you

Your eyes are turning red
Inside your spinning head
The lights are blinding
Any emotion fades
Behind your mirrored shades
I see you hiding
I see you hiding

We'll run away under cover of night and be gone
We'll spend our days turning newfound ways into song

I see you hiding
Yeah, I see you hiding

You have to wait in line
You have to wait in line
Like you were told to
But you don't want to buy
No you don't want to buy
The life they sold you

You have to wait in line
You have to wait in line
Like you were told to
You have to wait in line
You have to wait in line
I see you hiding

See You Hiding

Let me tell you a story,
Of Maid Marian in her glory,
Not the damsel, not the muse,
But a lady with her own strong views.
She wasn't just a pretty face,
Her sharp mind led the chase,
Fell for a crook, oh what a twist,
Our clever Marian couldn't resist.

Oh, Maid Marian, so wise and keen,
Loved a crook with a socialist dream,
History's tale has got it wrong,
She led the charge all along.
Oh, Maid Marian, the truth to tell,
She made the plans and rang the bell,
While Robin Hood took all the fame,
Marian's wit won the game.

Robin Hood, a strange ideal,
Dreamed of communes, sharing meals,
Stealing from the rich, what a ploy,
Marian thought, “Oh boy, oh boy.”
But he had eyes so bright and fair,
And fluffy locks beyond compare,
She joined his cause, with brains to spare,
Led the outlaws everywhere.

The merry men, they cheered her name,
For she turned the outlaw game,
Robin's schemes, they'd fall apart,
If not for Marian's cunning heart.
She whispered plans in moonlit glades,
Turned reckless fights to cunning raids.

Oh, Maid Marian, so wise and keen,
Loved a crook with a socialist dream,
History's tale has got it wrong,
She led the charge all along.
Oh, Maid Marian, the truth to tell,
She made the plans and rang the bell,
While Robin Hood took all the fame,
Marian's wit won the game.

So next you hear the legend told,
Of Robin Hood, so brave and bold,
Remember Marian, fierce and bright,
The brains behind each daring fight.
Truth to be told, we have no clue,
But doesn't this tale seem more true?
For in her heart and in her mind,
She left the myths of old behind.

Maid Marian

LET ME BE YOUR LOVING MAN

"Streight Outta Copenhagen (Part 1)"

The first chapter in an electrifying Tech House series - a pulsating journey through the heart of Copenhagen's legendary nightlife. This track is a love letter to the city that never stops dancing - from the warehouse raves in Refshaleøen to the intimate underground clubs of Kødbyen, from the sweaty basements of Vesterbro to the summer open-airs at Culture Box.

Built on a foundation of driving basslines and mind-bending synth stabs that hit like a freight train, "Streight Outta Copenhagen" captures the raw energy of a København weekend - where the party starts at midnight and doesn't stop until the morning light hits the harbor. Wait for the 01:00 mark - that's when the real magic unfolds, transforming the groove into something truly special.

The track weaves together the industrial grit of the city's techno heritage with the infectious groove that keeps dance floors moving across Nørrebro, Vesterbro, and beyond.

This is more than just a track - it's a sonic postcard from Denmark's electronic music capital. A tribute to every smoke-filled room, every sunrise session, and every moment when the bass drops and the crowd becomes one. From Jolene to Ved Siden Af, from Bakken to RUST - this one's for Copenhagen.

Part 1 sets the stage for what's to come - turn it up, close your eyes, and let the rhythm take you straight to the heart of CPH's underground.

For the ravers, the dancers, and the city that brings us together.

🎧 The New Of The Tower
Welcome to a new, underground, dark world...

🎭 Musical Style & Artistic Evolution

🚀 Avant-Garde Dance Music Without Borders
The New Of The Tower is an independent, self-taught project that fearlessly pushes the limits of dance music with a unique fusion of genres. Officially described as a mix of dark techno, tech-house, electro, and experimental pop, it also incorporates elements of trap, punk, and even classical music.

In practice, each track oscillates between club anthems and conceptual sonic experiences. For instance, “Velvet Guillotine” (2025) is a hypnotic techno hymn built on heavy percussion and distorted vocals—a true “surreal sonic ritual” under neon lights.

The sound is always matched by a cinematic, underground aesthetic: strobe lights, cyberpunk visuals, and immersive atmospheres define every release.

🌍 Eclectic Influences & Genre Alchemy

The New Of The Tower draws from a wide range of sonic traditions:

🏴‍☠️ Dark techno and industrial groove infused with gothic textures and anarchic punk (e.g., “BRUTAL!!” — a chaotic journey of distortion and rebellion).

🌍 Afro-Tech House meets rock guitars à la AC/DC in “Love Letters” (124–126 BPM).

👺 “Masquerade of Bass” blends melodic techno, dark psytrance, and retro synth-pop.

💃 Spanish-language tracks like “Marionetas” and “Vidas Rotas” fuse flamenco sorrow with trap beats and deep 808s.

🎷 “2:59 AM” evokes Amy Winehouse-inspired jazzy cloud-rap, while “She Danced Through Storms” travels through deep house and jazz fusion with a cinematic touch.

🧊 “Still Echoing” merges melodic trance with nostalgic 80s synth-pop.

🧬 Each track is a bold cross-genre experiment: from industrial club bangers to dark electronic ballads, always rich in texture and emotion.

🎛️ Sonic Palette: Instruments & Effects

🎹 Synths & Melodies
Analog pads & leads (often vocoder-enhanced) create retrofuturistic atmospheres.
Punk-style distorted guitars and 80s synthwave textures bring cinematic depth.

🥁 Percussion & Rhythms
Hard techno kicks, metallic hi-hats, tribal drums, and trap-style 808s.
Layered acoustic and electronic elements make for dynamic and precise beats.

🌀 FX & Processing
Rich in glitchy clips, VHS noise, deep delays, and reverb-soaked vocals.

Examples: “Love Letters” is drenched in lo-fi and VHS textures; “4 Malos Polvos” features glitchy ambient layers and emotional auto-tune.

🎨 Each sound is carefully crafted to contribute to a vivid, cinematic soundscape.

🎤 Vocal Treatments: A Sonic Chameleon

Vocals range from:
🎙️ Melodic singing (English & Spanish)
🔥 Punk shouting & spoken rap
🤖 Vocoded retro textures (“Still Echoing”)
💔 Melancholic auto-tuned lines (“4 Malos Polvos”)
💣 Confessional, emotionally intense deliveries
🗣️ The voice becomes another instrument of emotion, soaked in effects like reverb, delay, filters—ranging from ghostly whispers to ecstatic screams.

🌑 Emotional Climate & Storytelling

The overall emotional tone is dark, introspective, and visceral.

Themes revolve around:
💘 Passion, heartbreak, rebellion
🧠 Subconscious states & urban alienation
🕯️ Ritualistic, trance-like experiences (e.g., “Velvet Guillotine”)
🌆 Social suffering (“Marionetas”, “Vidas Rotas”)
😈 Raw eroticism & shame (“4 Malos Polvos”: “each drop is a stab disguised as a caress”)
🎞️ Romantic melancholy in cinematic settings (“2:59 AM”, “She Danced Through Storms”)
🎬 Each track unfolds like an emotional chapter, offering catharsis, vulnerability, and mystery.

📽️ Conceptual Artistry & Vision

The New Of The Tower is not just music—it's an immersive audiovisual concept.

💀 Explores themes of dystopia, poverty, guilt, rebellion
🏙️ Brutalist club visuals, cyberpunk aesthetics
🕯️ Emotional depth with non-commercial intent
🎭 “4 Malos Polvos” = a “dark confession for love sinners,” cinematic and raw
🌀 Each release = a journey through shadow and rhythm
🕺💀 Dance meets darkness—a kind of electronic film noir where each beat tells a deeper truth.

📈 Style Evolution: From EDM to Darkness

🟢 2019–2022: EDM & electro-pop beginnings (Feel EP, “You And Me” — catchy and bright)

🟡 2024: Transition into melodic techno (“Not Living Without You”)

🔴 2025–Present: Shift to dark techno, darkwave, flamenco-trap, and experimental storytelling (“Velvet Guillotine”, “Marionetas”)

🎭 From mainstream dance-pop to raw, conceptual electronic music—always evolving, always fearless.

🎼 Comparable Artists & Influences

🧩 The New Of The Tower resonates with:

🧨 Brutalismus 3000 (techno-punk dystopia)
👾 Perturbator (dark synthwave)
🌘 Mind Against / Recondite (melodic techno & melancholia)
🎤 Boy Harsher, Massive Attack (dark vocals, trip-hop moods)
🔥 Anyma (techno emotion), Latin trap/fusion for its flamenco-trap leanings
🌌 But ultimately, it defines its own world—one built from dark techno, darkwave, nu-jazz, and trap-rock fusion.
