like everyone else by trying several instruments and scratching on
grandfather’s turntable, nothing special about that. Both were born
in the mid 80’s when the techno and house community was rising to
the top.

90’s dance, hip-hop & house stuff influenced one of them. The other
half was more into melodic sounds and Europe based techno. On the
road as solo artists they met in 2008, found mutual connection with
their interpretations and became dj & production partners.

Harmony between Dj-ing, performance and immediate contact with the
people makes a good to a "better" dj. The self-proclaimed brothers
have a sensible feeling for the Clubheads, dance-a-holics and all
the others, for which "music" means attitude not just a word. They
love to mix up different styles to make their sets intensive,
diversified and unique. Almost poetic, comparable with an exciting
story.

Their first Release on OFF Recordings got immediately strong
feedbacks from Toni Rios, Reboot, Ray Okpara, Brother’s Vibe & many
more.

Adriatique are also featured on the highly anticipated second
Release from Diynamic’s Sublabel 2DIY4. Their groovy new-
interpretation from Feist – Honey, Honey is considered as one of the
summer tracks 2011. Already supported by Osunlade, Soulclap, James
Teej, Dop, Anja Schneider, Dj Wild, Deetron, Adam Port, Maya Jane
Coles and many more followed. This was their kick-off to be also
part of 2DIY4’s motherlabel Diynamic Music.

In addition to their musical-work & busy club-schedule Adriatique
have their monthly based event series „Moving Around Us“ in Zurich
which has grown to a meeting point for international guests, local
talent, music & art...

Stay tuned for upcoming Releases on some of the most influential
Imprints of the current electronic music scene.

By Your Side
Adriatique Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I′ve got no proof
To follow through
I feel the need to step a side
I'm guarding truth
From this abuse
But can i last until i′m by your side

I've got no proof

To follow through
I feel the need to step a side
I'm guarding truth
From this abuse

But can i last until i′m
By your side

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Adriatique's song "By Your Side" narrate the struggle of the singer who is torn between the need to speak up and the fear of the consequences. The opening lines "I've got no proof to follow through" suggest the singer might be witnessing something that needs to be addressed, but they lack concrete evidence to back up their claims. However, they also feel the responsibility to protect the truth from being abused which creates an inner conflict.

The singer seems to be focused on their endurance when they say "but can I last until I'm by your side." It suggests that they are waiting for the right moment for the truth to be revealed but at the same time, they might not have enough stamina to endure the wait. The repetition of the first stanza creates the impression of a loop or a cycle, which suggests that the singer is stuck in this situation.

The lyrics can be interpreted in various ways, but overall, they depict the struggle of speaking up for the truth in the face of adversity. The song seems to encourage taking the first step towards confronting reality and acknowledging the need for change.
