1) a Spanish alternative-pop-rock band which was founded in [year formed]1992[/year formed]. The Band currently consists of the sisters Christina Llanos (guitar/vocals) and Amparo Llanos (guitar), Jesús Antúnez (drums), and Samuel Titos (bass) who recently replaced former bassist Álvaro Díez. Their music ranges from heavy to sweet, shouting to dreaming, but always with a groovy drive.
Dover originated in the outskirts of Madrid at the beginning of the 1990s when the Llanos sisters decided to form a rock band encouraged by the alternative scene from Seattle. In 1994, the drummer Jesús Antúnez and the bass guitarist Álvaro Gómez joined in. One of the band's demo tapes reached the radio program Disco Grande on RNE Radio 3. The band then entered into a one-year contract with the small independent record label Everlasting-Caroline. Their debut album Sister in 1995 lacked promotion and sold poorly; however, the Spanish fanzine Mondo Sonoro included it among the 10 best national albums of the year.
After their initial contract expired, they signed with the independent label Subterfuge Records, which produced their second album Devil Came To Me. This album turned out to be an unprecedented success in the Spanish independent scene. A fragment from the title song was included in a popular Radical Fruit Company television commercial and the band got launched to national fame. While promoting this album, the bass guitarist was replaced by Álvaro Díez, who had already been part of the band at its beginning. The album sold over 500,000 copies and gained them fans also abroad in Europe and the Americas.
Their relationship with Subterfuge Records deteriorated and they signed with Chrysalis Records. In 1998, the band created their own label Loli Jackson Records. The next year they recorded their third album Late At Night in Seattle.
In 2000, they received the MTV Europe Best Spanish Artist award. In 2001, Chrysalis re-released their first album Sister including a bonus unreleased song Noche tras noche. In September that year, after tense recording sessions in Los Angeles marked by disagreements with their album producer Barret Jones, the band released their fourth album I Was Dead For 7 Weeks In The City Of Angels.
In 2003, they released The Flame, recorded in Spain and produced by Rick Will, an album that shows all the fury that has made them big without forgetting those great songs of melody and quality. Stephen Marcussen (Marcussen Mastering, NYC) did the mastering, a classic that has mastered a lot of the legendary records of the last 15 years.
In 2006, Dover released Follow the City Lights. It was recorded at PKO Studios and self-produced along with Daniel Alcover. The album was preceded by the single Let Me Out, and broke away from their usual sound to create a more dance-like style.
The band's 2007 release 2 is a greatest hits compilation, which exhibits the rock sound that brought them to stardom, as well as the band's new electronic sound.
The first single from 2 is entitled "Soldier."
2) An artist associated with the doujin circle Tokyo Audio Waffle, or en;dolphinrecords. He is a producer of a wide range of genres, from house to hip-hop, to chiptune, and to deep house.

Dover Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And here comes my nightmare
Oh! If I could take time back
I wouldn't do what I did
Now it's too late, now it's so hard
I'm not ready to go
Wait a minute, wait a second
Cause now that I've become a good girl
I admit I was wrong
For you whatever, for you whatever
I'm not ready to go
Now it's getting dare
And here come my nightmare
Oh! If I could take time back
I wouldn't said what I said
Now it's too late, now it's too hard
I'm not ready to go
Wait a minute, wait a second
Just give me time
Cause now that I've become a good girl
I admit I was wrong
For you whatever, for you whatever
I'm not ready to go
The song "Nightmare" by Dover is a reflection on regret and the feeling of being trapped in the consequences of one's actions, specifically in the context of a relationship. The lyrics describe the singer's vivid awareness of their own mistakes and the impact they have had on their life. The use of the word "nightmare" represents the degree of difficulty that the singer is experiencing, as though they are trapped in a bad dream they cannot escape from. The lyrics convey a sense of longing for a chance to go back in time and change the choices they made. However, the reality is that it is too late for regrets, and the singer is left in a state of desperation, wishing for more time to make things right.
The first two lines of the song set the somber tone immediately by describing how cold it is getting and how the singer's nightmares are starting to consume them. The lyrics go on to express regret for the past, and how if they could go back in time and undo what they did, they would. However, as the song continues, they realize it is too late for any change, and they are left in a state of despair. This is exemplified through powerful lines such as "Now it's too late, now it's too hard, I'm not ready to go" and "Wait a minute, wait a second, just give me time."
The chorus, where the singer repeats the line "For you whatever, for you whatever, I'm not ready to go," seems to indicate a deep desire to make things right with the person they hurt. Despite the difficulty of the situation, the singer is willing to do anything to try and make up for their actions, even if it means facing their own nightmares head-on. The song ultimately serves as a cautionary tale about the fragility of relationships, and the importance of being mindful of one's actions.
