Bitten by the acid-house bug in 1988, Fugler, Tournier and Bryant began recording with two singles informed by more-than-competent guitar work, soaring techno-funk and plenty of pop inspiration as well. "Thumper" and "Joni" (the latter sampling Joni Mitchell's "Big Yellow Taxi") brought Fluke much attention in the growing electronic sphere, and they signed a one-off album deal with indie-rock kingpins Creation for their debut full-length, 1991's Techno Rose of Blighty. After completing another record deal with Virgin that same year, Fluke released a live album Out (in essence) and their sophomore masterpiece Six Wheels on My Wagon, an album of poppy, occasionally dreamy ambient-trance which included several previously released singles. By 1995, Fluke had even hit the British charts (with the singles "Bullet" and "Tosh") and their third LP OTO marked a bit of a departure for the trio, a downbeat, jazzy path just beginning to be name-checked as trip-hop. Hitting the charts in an even bigger way during their 1997 return, the trio released "Atom Bomb," a high-energy number recorded for the Virgin video-game soundtrack Wipeout 2097. The single and video also introduced fourth member Arial Tetsuo, an animé race-car driver come to life as concert figure-head Rachel Stewart. Risotto, Fluke's fourth LP, fit in nicely with the growing fanaticism surrounding big-beat techno, though the trio held on to their trance and trip-hop inclinations as well.

Ykk
Fluke Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
New place, new prey
New rules, new names
New ways, new game
In side, insane
In fear, in changes
In need, in pain
No light, no space
No signs, no state
No voice, no face
No choice, no grace
Been good, been brave
Been game, behaved
Been bad, been shamed
Been made, been tamed
Been cruel, been kind
Been tense, been fine
Been free, been tied
Seen time, pass by
Been this, been that
Been out, been back
Been bold, been brash
Been cheap, been trash
Been weak, been strong
Been right, been on
Been there, been wrong
Been here too long
The song Ykk by Fluke is an introspective piece that explores the different facets of human experience. The song starts with the singer acknowledging the constant changes in life; a new night, a new day, a new place, a new prey, and new rules. We are constantly adapting to new environments, and this change brings new challenges and new opportunities.
The second verse explores the emotional turmoil that comes with these changes. The singer talks about being insane, fearful, and in pain. We struggle with the changes that life brings, and sometimes it can feel overwhelming. It is a reminder that we need to have the mental and emotional fortitude to endure changes.
The chorus talks about the absence of hope when things seem to be falling apart. The absence of light, space, signs, and a voice can make us feel unsupported and helpless. The song talks about the human condition, its highs and lows, and the need to face our challenges head-on.
Overall, Ykk is a song that challenges us to explore our inner selves and to continue our journey in life, no matter the obstacles we face.
