And while many have only just heard of the magic of Drop The Lime, Luca has been honing his craft for years. From humble beginnings as a choirboy to a childhood obsession with 50s rock’n’roll, the 25 year old has been experimenting with sound for years via the underground electronic scene of Kid 606’s TigerBeat6 label, Mad Decent and French label Institubes (under his alter ego "Curses!").
Drop The Lime's influences range from Brian Eno to rockabilly (he’s well known for his 50s doo wop and soul sets) to Sonic Youth to Wu Tang but things don't just stop there. He also runs Trouble & Bass, an influential New York club night and label since 2006. The Trouble & Bass crew are the DJs who are defining a new New York sound.
“Having a crew from NYC behind you, pushing the sound you produce, is essential in creating a movement. We’re all producers and DJs so sometimes we’ll collaborate on production -- or I'll have one of them help out with one of my basslines - since they understand my sound better than anyone else”.
I Want Candy
Drop the Lime Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She's so fine, she can't be beat
Got everything that I desire
Sets the summer sun on fire
I want candy, I want candy
Go to see her with her hair hung down
Candy's just what the doctor ordered
She's so sweet, she makes my mouth water
I want candy, I want candy
I want candy, I want candy
I want candy, I want candy
Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey
Candy on the beach, there's nothing better
But I like candy when it's wrapped in a sweater
Some day soon I'll make her mine
Then I'll have candy all the time
I want candy, I want candy
Hey
Hey
Hey

I can name a couple ways, baby, this shit might go
You just might forget that this was what you're getting high for
Men that like to do the things to remain that guy who
Need someone who's sweet and not gon' shoot to make that high note
And it's such a typical thing
Running over a billion men.
Running through a difficult place
You don't need no blood on your hands, no
She's just like candy, she's so sweet
But you know that it ain't real cherry, know that it ain't real cherry
She's just like candy, she's so sweet
But you know that it ain't real, know that it ain't real
I can be your sugar when you're fiending for that sweet spot
Put me in your mouth, baby, and eat it 'til your teeth rot
I can be your cherry, apple, pecan, or your key lime
Baby I got everything and so much more than she's got
And it's such a typical thing
Running over a billion men.
Running through a difficult place
You don't need no blood on your hands, no
She's just like candy, she's so sweet
But you know that it ain't real cherry, know that it ain't real cherry
She's just like candy, she's so sweet
But you know that it ain't real, know that it ain't real
She's just like candy, she's so sweet
But you know that it ain't real cherry, know that it ain't real cherry
She's just like candy, she's so sweet
But you know that it ain't real, know that it ain't real
Sugar-coated lies unfolded, you still lick the wrapper
It's addictive, you know this, but you still lick the wrapper
Sugar-coated lies unfolded, you still lick the wrapper
It's addictive, you know this, but you still lick the wrapper
She's just like candy, she's so sweet
But you know that it ain't real cherry, know that it ain't real cherry
She's just like candy, she's so sweet
But you know that it ain't real, know that it ain't real
She's just like candy, she's so sweet
But you know that it ain't real cherry, know that it ain't real cherry
She's just like candy, she's so sweet
But you know that it ain't real, know that it ain't real
