Rooijers and Hamers met at the Utrecht School of Arts around 2014. Rooijers was studying music and composition, while Hamers was studying visual arts. They worked on art projects at school and made music in their spare time. The project began as a joke; Hein said that "we were just joking around. That kind of got really serious really quickly so..."
What began with a SoundCloud account - where they uploaded their own music and curated their favorite releases in their "Pokoe Pack" mixes - soon developed a reputation for creating impeccable percussion-heavy future bass infused with the catchiest melodies. The duo's emphasis of both the music and visuals through both members' strengths has seen them weave intricate stories through both the music and visuals.
In May 2017, they collaborated with San Holo for the song "Lines of the Broken". The next month, they released "Jump" featuring Nevve, which was then used in August in an advertisement for the Apple Watch. In 2019, they started their tour The Choices We Face, in support of their EP of same name.
On October 21, 2020, Hamers announced his departure from the project. A month later, an anthology album, A Matter of Perspective, was released.

DROELOE Lyrics

I

This I know, I
Is like a lullaby
This I know, I
In DROELOE's song "zZz," the repeated lyrics "I know, I is like a lullaby" convey a sense of repetition and comfort. The idea of a lullaby, which is usually sung to help people fall asleep, implies a sense of safety and calmness. In the context of the song, it could be seen as the singer reassuring themselves or someone else of their safety or guiding them into a state of relaxation. The repetition of this phrase also creates a hypnotic and dream-like effect, further emphasizing the calming nature of the song.
The use of "I" instead of "it" or another object pronoun also adds a personal touch to the lyrics. It could be interpreted as the singer speaking to themselves or addressing someone directly with reassurances or instructions. The lack of specificity of the subject in the sentence also allows it to be applied to a broad range of situations or emotions, adding to the universal appeal of the song.

I will forever be thankful to sheepy for introducing me to DROELOE. It's been over 3 years and I'm still obsessed with this song. Not to mention the incredible music they've released since.
