Wonderful
Awful spirit
Tell it all
Announce my secrets

I don’t care what mine
I don’t care what me

Happening
Funny spirit
Laugh on me
That I might hear it

I don’t care what mine
I don’t care what me 

Beautiful
Blinking spirit
Hurry though
I want to feel it

I don’t care what mine
I don’t care what me 

Let off the bottom sorrow
Beauty as it spills
Sudden and surreal
And as I’m taken I’ll go
Willingly I’ll go 
Horribly I’ll go 
Winking at you though

Laugh On Me

Brother (YKTDY)
Is a very nostalgic song for me. Most songs touch on the subject of love, the only difference here is that I wanted to write a song about how much I love my mates. I wanted to share some of the story’s and memories we lived through in our younger years. Growing up in Moston (Manchester). The good times. The bad times. It’s celebrating he family we choose, in our case our brothers. Life is never plain sailing but I like to think that is about who you are with not where you are. In this industry iv met a lot of privileged people but I honestly wouldn’t change our upbringing for the world. I’m proud of where I’m from & I love my mates so I wrote a song about it. Enjoy.

Dan Elliott - Just a little (Closer to me)

VERSE I
West End 
I’m on the ceilin’
I’m medicated with the finest buzz a kid could afford
Wide eyes
In walks a heathen
Is it just me, or did the room heat up a hundred degrees?

PRECHORUS I
Cause there you stood with a mind full of felonies  
Oh and now I’m burnin’
baby but I love all the heat 
West End
My fears are peakin’
And you could save me, but you’d rather have me down on the floor

CHORUS
Woah-ooh-wuh-uh-oh-oh-ohh
I need ya like a fever
Fever won’t you be good to me? 
Woah-ooh-wuh-uh-oh-oh-ohh
You’re sayin’ that you’re super 
But you’re no superhero to me

VERSE II
I’m sideways
It’s complicated
I wasn’t lookin’, but the girl is kinda hard to ignore 
Soft eyes (soft eyes)
Cuts like a demon (like a demon)
She’d try to break me, but I’m already as broke as could be

PRECHORUS II
Cause there I stood in your room, feelin’ chemistry 
Oh and now I’m beggin’
Baby you’re so good at deceit 
West End (West End)
She says I’m tweakin’ (I think I’m tweakin’)
And you could save me, but you’d rather make me feel like a whore

CHORUS II
Woah-ooh-wuh-uh-oh-oh-ohh
I need ya like a fever
Fever won’t you be good to me? 
Woah-ooh-wuh-uh-oh-oh-ohh
You’re sayin’ that you’re super 
But you’re no superhero to me

Woah-ooh-wuh-uh-oh-oh-ohh
I need ya like a fever
Fever won’t you be good to me? 
Woah-ooh-wuh-uh-oh-oh-ohh
You’re sayin’ that you’re super 
But you’re no superhero to me

BRIDGE
Ooh-ooh-eee-ooh
Well I know, you know, that no one can resist ya
Ooh-ooh-eee-ooh
Well I know you know, that no one can can’t resist her
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
And I’m burnin’ slowly, baby’s gotten under the skin
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
If it’s a game we’re playing, baby how come I never win?

CHORUS 3
Woah-ooh-wuh-uh-oh-oh-ohh
I need ya like a fever
Fever won’t you be good to me? 
Woah-ooh-wuh-uh-oh-oh-ohh
You’re sayin’ that you’re super 
But you’re no superhero to me

Woah-ooh-wuh-uh-oh-oh-ohh
I need ya like a fever
Fever won’t you be good to me? 
Woah-ooh-wuh-uh-oh-oh-ohh
You’re sayin’ that you’re super 
But you’re no superhero to me

You Ain't No Superhero

It's been a while but XXX the label is back with a new release by Roe Deers. Known for his dj sets that don't hold back & productions that have been played all over the world by DJ's from all over the world.

On remix duties we have an upcoming talent from Amsterdam - Marijn S. With a release on SPRAY this year, DEKMANTEL festival booking and several other things coming she's one to keep an eye on.

XXX015 consists of 6 tracks on digital format. 5 originals and one remix.
We've never been the label to put things in a genre but to describe these tracks with words is even hard this time. Menacing, out of this world sounds alternate with industrial EBM sounds. One thing is for sure, these tracks will make a lasting impression on the dancefloor.
