In September 1998, Ade released his first single on Advanced. 'Coded', a brutal slab of harsh tech-funk, received a response from press and DJ's exceeding all expectations. This was quickly followed by the second release 'Immortal', and a remix by the Space DJ'z confirmed the label's status and gained many followers as a result.
As the label's sound began to mature, Ade's DJ schedule became increasingly busy, and in June 1999 he took up a residency at England's biggest techno club, the legendary Atomic Jam, and continued to unleash his blistering 'cut up' DJ'ing style, reflected in much of his material, at techno clubs throughout Europe, Africa, Australasia and Asia.
The release of the epic 'Perverter EP' on Ben Long's highly regarded label Potential saw Ade's profile rise further still, and EPs on Audio & Ground soon followed, along with remixes for Materials, Potential and Red Seal.
As well as releasing his own material on Advanced, the label has also seen releases from Ade's peers including Space Dj'z, Umek and Chris McCormack.
Healing
Ade Fenton Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Falling, fall down
Do you know?
Do you know?
Obscene, I followed
I've seen some lies
Do you know?
Do you know?
I fall down
To you now
Do you know?
Sometimes I feel
Like I belong
To you now,
To you now
And now sometimes
It feels like I lie
To you now
Do you know?
Do you know?
I feel nothing
I feel no pain
You can't hurt me
You can't touch me
I'm not bleeding
I am healing
You will not steal
My dignity
Sometimes I fail
(Sometimes I know)
She protects me
(Some whores kneel down)
She makes me feel
(Do you know, do you know?)
Humility
(Do you know?)
She made me clean
(Sometimes I'm low)
She made me see
(Sometimes you fall)
All I could be
(Do you know, do you know?)
My sanctuary
(Do you know?)
In the song, "Healing" by Ade Fenton, the lyrics convey a sense of vulnerability while also expressing strength and resilience. The singer has experienced pain and hurt, and has seen others fall as well. Despite this, the singer declares that they cannot be hurt, that they are healing and their dignity cannot be taken away. They sing of their protector, someone who has helped them through their struggles, made them feel humble, and has ultimately helped them become the best version of themselves.
The lines "Sometimes I feel like I belong to you now" seem to suggest a sense of dependence upon the protector, but it is followed by the assertion that the singer is healing, and cannot be hurt or touched. It is unclear who or what the protector represents, whether it is a person or an ideal or belief system. It is also possible that the protector is a metaphor for the singer's own inner strength and resilience.
Overall, the lyrics of "Healing" convey a theme of perseverance and resilience in the face of struggles and pain. The singer acknowledges their vulnerability, but also asserts their own strength and independence in overcoming it.
