1) Download is a Canadian electronic music group formed in 1995.
2) Download is a Brazilian drum & bass artist from Sao Paulo.
3) DOWNLOAD is an alias of Emma Essex.
1) Download is a Canadian electronic music group formed by Dwayne Goettel and cEvin Key of Skinny Puppy in 1994. The initial lineup also included Off & Gone's Phil Western and Mark Spybey of Dead Voices on Air, but has since been particularly fluid, with Key and Western being the only constant members following Goettel's death. Download's music has been described as post-industrial, drawing from the band's genesis as part of Skinny Puppy but also sharing common stylistic ground with such artists as Aphex Twin and Autechre. The primary instrumentation common throughout their albums is a blend of synthesizers and sampled instruments; the music is particularly centered on elements of percussion and rhythm.
As industrial and industrial metal band, Download was originally begun by Skinny Puppy's cEvin Key and Rudolph Dwayne Goettel in 1995 as a side project from their rapidly disintegrating full-time interest. Also a part of Download were Skinny Puppy contributors Anthony Valcic and Ken Marshall, plus Philth and Mark Spybey (from Dead Voices on Air). The debut album Furnace was issued on their own SubConscious Records (and distributed by Cleopatra) in late 1995; several months earlier, however, Goettel had died from a heroin overdose.
Skinny Puppy disbanded in 1996 after the release of (The Process), and Download continued with two EPs early in the year. The first, (Microscopic) included remixed tracks from Furnace, while the second (Sidewinder) was the group's first release for Nettwerk Records (though not for Key, who had released many on Nettwerk through Skinny Puppy). Second album The Eyes of Stanley Pain followed in mid-1996, and began to show the effect of the electronic dance music which Skinny Puppy had influenced a full decade before. The film soundtrack Charlie's Family appeared on Metropolis Records in 1997, followed by Download's third proper album (III) in October 1997. Effector was released three years later.
2) Download is a Brazilian drum & bass artist from Sao Paulo.
3) DOWNLOAD (formerly stylized as ⇩LOAD) is an alias of Emma Essex under the Halley Labs label. They are a hellbat that produces compilations of noise music.
They were originally separate from Halley Labs and their releases were on a separate Bandcamp page, which is no longer available.
DOWNLOAD's name was taken from the duology of PC Engine and CD games and a shmup of the name. Their design from 2013 was made as a way to personify and sexualize Emma's own fears to lessen their effect on her. As such, the decision to make them a bat was based on stereotypical personality traits. As time passed, DOWNLOAD's design was toned down significantly and more effeminate, making them Emma's "casual" fursona.
On December 10, 2019, Emma announced on Twitter that the character of DOWNLOAD would have a 'real name' (deuteronomy) attached to them to reflect less harsh noise tracks, but the character was later entirely rebranded to this new name.
Two Worlds Collide
Download Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We just couldn't be close though we tried
We both reached for heavens but ours weren't the same
That's what happens when two worlds collide
Your world was made up of things sweet and good
And my world could never fit in, wish it could
Two hearts lie in shambles and oh how they've cried
Your world was made up of things sweet and good
And my world could never fit in, wish it could
Two hearts lie in shambles and oh how they've cried
That's what happens when two worlds collide
The lyrics of Download's song Two Worlds Collide depict the sad story of lovers from two different worlds who despite trying their hardest could not make their love work. The lyrics suggest that the two individuals involved had vastly different upbringings and experiences, making it impossible for them to find common ground. Despite both reaching for the heavens, their heavens were different, and this mismatch ultimately led to their demise. The lyrics evoke feelings of sadness and longing, as the two lovers were unable to bridge the gap between their worlds.
The lyrics describe the stark contrast between the two worlds that the lovers came from. One was "made up of things sweet and good," while the other apparently did not fit in. The lyrics suggest that the two worlds were so different that they couldn't coexist with each other. The phrase "Two hearts lie in shambles and oh how they've cried" indicates the emotional pain and heartbreak that the lovers experienced.
Overall, the lyrics are a poignant reminder that sometimes, no matter how much two people care for each other, the circumstances and the world around them may prevent them from finding happiness together.
