Dual Core is comprised of two nuclear fission reactors who go by the name of Adi Milner and Eran Ben Gaon. Both artists have had successful solo careers, recording and performing around the world as Backspace (that's Adi) and Point that's Eran.
As the saying goes'two heads are better than one' and so they decided to pool their talents and become 'as One'...a Dual Coretwice as potent!
What we can say with certainty is that these two fellows share the common aim to stimulate the senses, to enliven the mind, and to free up the body with music that is fiery, hot and explosive on the dance-floor.

Drifter
Dual Core Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just gotta get in my right mind
Every second is prime time along for the ride
When this body's my vehicle I'ma drive mine
Lights in the tunnel, illuminate the skyline
A green metal scene not a dream but a pipe climb
Gears march on, Witness the journey of a lifetime
So much struggle but it's relative, Einstein
A one way ticket, we couldn't book it on Priceline
My rearview is clear view in front of me my eyes blind
Shouldn't be driving it in the night time
Easily lost and more easily scared
With the shadows from the bright lights
And high beams glare
Thick like the fog but clouded by doubt and fear
Then you defrost the windows
Everything becomes clear
See here, opportunities still appear
Same trips but the brand new flavor in your ear
More than a death tax year after year
If there's only one shot then it's more than a career
Wrong turns and there's no going back
No slack impact detour after the fact that
Sometimes GPS got in on track but if only I could navigate life
With Google Maps like that
Welcome to your life, welcome to this road
The path's uncharted, gotta choose where you go
On this one way show, please pay the toll
With your hands on your wheel, gotta maintain control
Welcome to your life, welcome to this road
The path's just started, gotta choose where to go
On this one way show, relax, take it slow
It's the return of the drifter
This goes out to my people everywhere
Who in suffering endured more than their fair share
The other kids at school made fun of what you wear
Gym class picked last and never the best player
The resistor, it's the, drifter
Mister, inter-rupt eighty just the descriptor
Table and it's stable so I spit a little quicker
To deliver all the syllables
Advanced to beginner didn't skip ya, Viktor
This is for the new kids
Band nerds, chess clubs that never met Cupid
Every day feeling so intrusive
Past, present, and future all inclusive
Understand that they just got it wrong
In the zone or at home somewhere you belong
They put you in that cage full of rage King Kong
Claiming you were weak but inside so strong
Thinking back remembering the dread
How you hated weekdays lay awake in bed
How you clutched at your sanity by a thin thread
Wishing that your enemies had just been friends
Cause this is your time so they're in debt
For stealing all your shine made it hell instead
You had the answers they're not impressed
Embarrassed and distressed about your interests
Welcome to your life, welcome to this road
The path's uncharted, gotta choose where you go
On this one way show, please pay the toll
With your hands on your wheel, gotta maintain control
Welcome to your life, welcome to this road
The path's just started, gotta choose where to go
On this one way show, relax, take it slow
It's the return of the drifter
This one's for everyone, in no way political
Fine, just a little bit consider it municipal
Brushed off the critical defied all the ridicule
Denied any opportunity to make you miserable
This one's for you in the physical
You in the digital, you all together indivisible
You atypical, you all original
Who severed the umbilical you the individual
Now take a look at you, see it in the clear
Made it out the fog, still standing, now you're here
Lookin' back you was bringing up the rear
See those bullies who you feared
At best are just your peers
And at worst? No need for going there
Got your own path, keep climbing those stairs
It's the path less traveled, now that you're aware
Hold your head high, put your chin up in the air right there
Welcome to your life, welcome to this road
The path's uncharted, gotta choose where you go
On this one way show, please pay the toll
With your hands on your wheel, gotta maintain control
Welcome to your life, welcome to this road
The path's just started, gotta choose where to go
On this one way show, relax, take it slow
It's the return of the drifter

Line by Line Meaning
Hit the road, get on my flight fine, touch down, reset
Starting a new journey, leaving behind the past and starting fresh
Just gotta get in my right mind
Mental preparation for the journey ahead
Every second is prime time along for the ride
Realizing the importance of time and making the most of every moment
When this body's my vehicle I'ma drive mine
Taking control of one's life and being the driver rather than a passenger
Lights in the tunnel, illuminate the skyline
Seeing a glimmer of hope in the darkness
A green metal scene not a dream but a pipe climb
The pursuit of success in a challenging environment
Gears march on, Witness the journey of a lifetime
Acknowledging the ups and downs of life and embracing the journey
So much struggle but it's relative, Einstein
Recognizing the struggles in life, but knowing that it could be worse
Going in circles, trying to find the right sign
Feeling lost and unsure of the direction in life
A one way ticket, we couldn't book it on Priceline
Acknowledging that life is unpredictable and can't always be planned
My rearview is clear view in front of me my eyes blind
Reflecting on the past while navigating the future
Shouldn't be driving it in the night time
Knowing that it's important to rest and recharge to prevent mistakes
Easily lost and more easily scared
Feeling vulnerable and unsure of oneself
With the shadows from the bright lights
Feeling overshadowed by other people's success or expectations
And high beams glare
Feeling overwhelmed and blinded by the challenges ahead
Thick like the fog but clouded by doubt and fear
Feeling uncertain and lacking confidence
Then you defrost the windows
Overcoming obstacles and gaining clarity
Everything becomes clear
Finding clarity and direction in life
See here, opportunities still appear
Recognizing that there are still chances for success and growth
Same trips but the brand new flavor in your ear
Seeing familiar things in a new and refreshing way
More than a death tax year after year
Life is more than just existing and surviving
If there's only one shot then it's more than a career
Life is more than just one's job or occupation
Wrong turns and there's no going back
Accepting mistakes and knowing that they can't be undone
No slack impact detour after the fact that
Feeling the consequences of mistakes after the fact
Sometimes GPS got in on track but if only I could navigate life
Wishing that life was as easy to navigate as a GPS
With Google Maps like that
Having a clear and easy-to-follow path in life
Welcome to your life, welcome to this road
Accepting the journey of life
The path's uncharted, gotta choose where you go
Life is unpredictable and one must make their own choices
On this one way show, please pay the toll
Accepting the consequences of one's choices
With your hands on your wheel, gotta maintain control
Taking responsibility for one's life and choices
The path's just started, gotta choose where to go
The journey of life is ongoing and one must continue to make choices
On this one way show, relax, take it slow
Enjoying the journey of life and not rushing through it
It's the return of the drifter
Embracing the journey of life as a free spirit
This goes out to my people everywhere
Dedicating the song to all people
Who in suffering endured more than their fair share
Those who have experienced more hardship than others
The other kids at school made fun of what you wear
Bullying and feeling insecure about one's appearance
Gym class picked last and never the best player
Feeling overshadowed and less successful than others
The resistor, it's the, drifter
Struggling against conformity and marching to the beat of one's own drum
Mister, inter-rupt eighty just the descriptor
Not wanting to conform to society's expectations or labels
Table and it's stable so I spit a little quicker
Feeling more secure and confident to speak one's truth
To deliver all the syllables
Expressing oneself fully and authentically
Advanced to beginner didn't skip ya, Viktor
Acknowledging one's journey from humble beginnings to success
This is for the new kids
Dedicating the song to those who feel new or out of place
Band nerds, chess clubs that never met Cupid
Those who haven't experienced typical high school milestones
Every day feeling so intrusive
Feeling like an outsider or intruder in life
Past, present, and future all inclusive
Acknowledging the complexity of life
Understand that they just got it wrong
Recognizing that other people's opinions or perceptions are not always accurate
In the zone or at home somewhere you belong
Feeling a sense of belonging in any environment
They put you in that cage full of rage King Kong
Feeling trapped or held back by other people's expectations
Claiming you were weak but inside so strong
Knowing that one's inner strength outweighs any external judgement or criticism
Thinking back remembering the dread
Reflecting on past struggles and hardships
How you hated weekdays lay awake in bed
Feeling unhappy or anxious about the daily routine
How you clutched at your sanity by a thin thread
Struggling with one's mental health and well-being
Wishing that your enemies had just been friends
Regretting past conflicts and wishing things were different
Cause this is your time so they're in debt
Feeling empowered and in control
For stealing all your shine made it hell instead
Feeling overshadowed or undermined by others
You had the answers they're not impressed
Feeling like one's accomplishments or achievements are overlooked
Embarrassed and distressed about your interests
Feeling ashamed or embarrassed about one's passions or interests
This one's for everyone, in no way political
Dedicating the song to all people, without any political agenda
Fine, just a little bit consider it municipal
Acknowledging the issues of society without being too political
Brushed off the critical defied all the ridicule
Overcoming criticism and ridicule to pursue one's goals
Denied any opportunity to make you miserable
Choosing to not let outside forces bring one down
This one's for you in the physical
Dedicating the song to those in the physical world
You in the digital, you all together indivisible
Acknowledging that people exist both in real life and online, and are all interconnected
You atypical, you all original
Celebrating individuality and uniqueness
Who severed the umbilical you the individual
Breaking free from past constraints and becoming an individual
Now take a look at you, see it in the clear
Taking stock of one's accomplishments and seeing clearly
Made it out the fog, still standing, now you're here
Overcoming obstacles and making it to the present moment
Lookin' back you was bringing up the rear
Reflecting on past struggles and hardships
See those bullies who you feared
Realizing that those who once caused fear are no longer a threat
At best are just your peers
Acknowledging that everyone is equal and capable of success
And at worst? No need for going there
Choosing to not dwell on past conflicts or negativity
Got your own path, keep climbing those stairs
Acknowledging one's unique journey and choosing to continue growing and improving
It's the path less traveled, now that you're aware
Choosing to take a unique and unconventional path in life
Hold your head high, put your chin up in the air right there
Feeling confident and empowered in one's uniqueness and individuality
