Promises
Noisecontrollers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can admit I'm sorry, if I did would you agree?
And all the empty promises, all when you're with me
A resolute indifference, will hold us here and now
But I need to make a sacrifice, if I could I'd tell you how

I need to make a sacrifice, if I could I'd tell you how

@@iCrapBubbles i prefer the solo from Bas track like Willam syndrome - Emotions this one is insane :p by the way "killer clown" can you hear Noisecontrolers into it ? for me is not much the same style, arjan style maybe fit a track like 2006-2010 era then is mostly Bas signature style

I also prefer Kasparov project as well he was doing some crazy good hardcore at that times ^^ I don't say that Arjan was nothing but BAS still have done a lot more for me, he made the noisecontrollers signature sound & signature kicks

think about it ! Bas is a good producer on any style he mix dubstep and hardstyle like nobody, he know how to make a new kind of vibes ! in 15 years his style have never getting old, all the sound was renewed ! he prove that's he is one of the most diversified hardstyle act ever made !

he is way more complete producer than you think ! for exemple when listening E=NC album you realise that Bas have taking all the spotlight and he unfortunately shadowed Arjan only because he was the main producer of nosiecontrollers

On duo you always have a producer that are the main act the others getting shadowed this is unfortunately but true is

Many act have going like that angerfist was 3 poeple at the basic néophyte as well evil activities as well and today they are solo producer and solo act (outside MC)

that's my personal opinion only of course I'm maybe a bas fanboy who know 😂 but I respect him especially since i'm a professional producer and still think I'm booby compare to a guys like that 😂
