They continued to make more music and in 2005 they switched label to the Swedish
"Memento Materia" who had released many great artists through out the years.
And the work on "Departure" began. This time the sound had evolved even more and matured since "Storm" and when it was released it got great reviews and the fan base grew even bigger.
Then Code 64 started to work on their third album and it seemed harder than they first believed.
Through all the years the taste and influences has changed for each member and it was hard to
get along musically and when Henrik Piehl left the band to focus on his other projects Code 64
went into carbonation. Slowly drifting until late summer 2008 when through a lucky shot
Bjørn Marius Borg joined Code 64 as the new vocalist and the work for the new album "Trialogue" began. Then in 2010 they signed over to Progress Production and a few months later they released their first single "Stasis" from "Trialogue".
And in September 2010 they released the new album and both it and the singles received great reviews and in early February 2011 they received the award for best Synth of the year at the Manifest Awards in Stockholm. Bjorn and Hasse also run a psytrance side project Protostar .
In the summer of 2013 it was announced on the bands Facebook page that they would be splitting up with two members continuing on under a new project name.
Higher Ground
Code 64 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We're getting closer
To a higher state of mind
Moving forward
Bound by time
We need to see what lies above
Beyond the shimmering sea
Higher
We can go higher
Have to find a better place
Let us break away
Higher
We can go higher
Searching for a better place
A higher ground
Closer, closer
Keep getting closer
Reality not what it seems, what it used to be
No turning back
No time to look around
We need to go on before we hit the ground
Don't hit the ground
The lyrics to Code 64's song Higher Ground speak about the yearning for a better place, a higher state of mind, and a higher ground. The song talks about moving forward and breaking away to search for something beyond the reality we perceive - beyond the matter that surrounds us all. The lyrics are almost an invitation to transcend beyond the mundane and strive for something greater.
The lines, "Reality not what it seems, what it used to be" suggest that the singer may have gone through some form of personal transformation or awakening that has changed their perspective towards the world. They are urging the listener to not hit the ground, which may mean that they are being encouraged not to give up and keep pursuing their quest for something greater, even if it means going beyond their comfort zone.
