Delorean formed in 2000, in the Basque coastal town of Zarautz, as the outlet for a group of teenagers wrapped up in their local punk scene. Eventually, though, bassist/singer Ekhi Lopetegi, drummer Igor Escudeo, keyboardist Unai Lazcano, and guitarist Guillermo Astrain began exploring their mutual interest in electronic music. After moving to Barcelona in 2007, they focused on computer-based writing and production, and started their own eclectic club night, Desperrame, as an antidote to the relative darkness of the techno scene. Like-minded clubgoers expanded Delorean’s rich palette of influences, and their remixes for bands like the XX, Cold Cave, Franz Ferdinand, Lemonade, El Guincho, and Glasser provided the band with playgrounds for digital experimentation to hone their own sound. Last year’s lauded Ayrton Senna EP took them further away from their rock influences and toward the euphoric club-inspired sound that feels like their destiny all along.
Their new album, Subiza – named after the bucolic Basque town in which it was recorded – is Delorean’s defining work to date. Fusing relentless hands-in-the-air club rhythms with the shimmering melodies they’ve long toyed with, it drips with decades of dancefloor history while retaining Delorean’s own adventurous voice. Densely layered digital production is sent back through analog tape to conjure a warm, whirling aesthetic that feels organic and fresh. Singer Ekhi Lopetegi colors the music with reflections on love, distance and longing. Says Lopetegi:
“The lyrics talk about love and joy as a feeling so strong that it distorts memory…that’s what
ecstatic means to me, this experience so big that it breaks up the normality of everyday life.
Ecstasy and love put you in an extreme state, therefore one of risk. If the music sounds
uplifting it’s because it aspires to be something that intense and crucial.”
With Subiza, Delorean have found the emotional core of the club music that has long consumed them, and made it something less rigid and very personal. A first listen is exhilarating, each subsequent listen a revelation. Without trafficking in false Utopias, Subiza is a soulful suite of blissed-out music that heralds the latent promise of a perfect summer.
Real Love
Delorean Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The deeper it is, the harder it gets to gently say bye
It’s sad and it hurts.
The deeper it is, the harder it gets to gently say bye
Will we ever meet again, will we ever?
Feel our hearts hardly beating, will they ever?
Stop beating, break apart, will we ever?
Will we ever meet again, will we ever?
Feel our hearts hardly beating, will they ever?
Stop beating, break apart, will we ever?

Lose all our hope, hope to get lost - want to fade
It’s sad and it hurts.
The deeper it is, the harder it gets to gently say bye
Will we ever meet again, will we ever?
Feel our hearts hardly beating, will they ever?
Stop beating, break apart, will we ever?
Lose all our hope, hope to get lost - want to fade
Will we ever meet again, will we ever?
Feel our hearts hardly beating, will they ever?
Stop beating, break apart, will we ever?
Lose all our hope, hope to get lost...
The lyrics to Delorean's song "Real Love" paint a picture of a deep and intense love that has come to an end. The repeated line "it's sad and it hurts" emphasizes the pain and sadness the singer is feeling. The deeper and more meaningful the love was, the harder it becomes to let go and say goodbye. The singer is left wondering if they will ever meet again and if their hearts will ever beat for each other in the same way. The lines "lose all our hope, hope to get lost - want to fade" suggest that the pain is so strong that the singer wants to disappear and forget about the love they once shared.
The song is a powerful expression of the emotions that come with the end of a relationship. The repetition of key phrases emphasizes the depth of the pain and the lingering questions that remain. The use of simple, straight-forward language adds to the raw and honest feeling of the song.
