Collide - Shifting

been down and underneath
I've been looking still looking
through, through me
been down and underneath
I've been looking still looking
through...through me

she is shifting in
logic was lost
concept within

I think and I am
what's your purpose
thinking again

been calling out to me
I've been looking
through the mirror
been calling out to me
I've been wondering through me

she is shifting in
logic was lost
concept within

I think and I am
what's your purpose
thinking again

try to connect and
thinking I am
turning directly moving on
trying to move closer
trying to move on
trying to get there moving far

loosing focus

she is shifting in
logic was lost
concept within

I think and I am
what's your purpose
thinking again

try to connect and thinking I am
turning directly moving on
trying to get close, try to move on
trying to get there moving far

Collide was founded in L.A. in 1992, by Karin and StatiK. Statik is responsible for the sound orchestrations and overall production while kaRIN holds the enchanted vocals and lyrics. They had incorporated elements of trip hop, synthpop, and darkwave. Collide's debut album, Beneath the Skin, was released in 1996, followed by a remix album, Distort. Then, dissatisfied with the music industry, Collide started their own record label, Noiseplus Music, and in 2000 they released their second studio album, Chasing the Ghost.

"We never thought of starting a band, we just wanted to make the kind of music we wanted to hear. After the first few songs were finished, we thought the collaboration sounded like something special. A few songs later, we realized that the music we were making was really important to us. It would need a name. We thought long and hard and then COLLIDE came to us. We knew it was right, as it described what we were doing and the feeling of the music perfectly."  - Collide -
