Redzone have been creating an entire integrated sensory experience using audio and video since 1997. They have been compared to collide, bjork and recoil among others. The music has been called ‘far away from cliché’ (sideline music magazine) and ‘great music and almost heavenly voices’ (peter-jean van damme, dj).
After recording demos in 1997, they released two MP3 web singles in 1998, 'Torrid/Crime of Passion' and 'Layer6/Body Craves'. Their debut CD 'Modified' came out in 1999 on their 'Phasechange Recordings' label, and was followed by '[Digital Flesh]' in 2005, containing an interactive, multi-threaded CD-ROM video.
Redzone also play extensively in Second Life, utilising bespoke MIDI-SL synchronisation technology.
They were credited by Wired and Reuters as being the first band to tour in Second Life in February 2007.
The third Redzone studio album, 'Abstract Revolution' was released on June 20th, 2008, and a track was played on BBC Radio 4 on March 15th, 2009.
The 'White Sun' DVD was released on December 12th, 2008.
A single, ‘Film Noir’ was released on May 27th, 2010, and the 'White Sun' DVD soundtrack album on November 20th, 2010.
The first in a series of 4 download-only EP's, 'Ultrastructure volume I' was released on May 1st, 2011 at the Mayday Mayhem Festival in Second Life. The event was curated by Redzone. The second in the series, 'Ultrastructure volume II' was released on October 31st 2011, and volume III is due for release in mid-2013.
Redzone have, since 2011, been utilising improvisation frequently in live shows and have released a series of albums based upon this practice. They include 'Gathering of The Tribes' and 'Venus Smiles', and a series of three performances recorded at their 'Atropine' venue in Second Life, collectively known as 'The Atropine Tapes'. The first of these, 'Eject and Survive' was released in October 2011, the second, 'The Breeding Station' in Novemeber 2012, and the third, 'Einfangen' is due for release on May 4th 2013.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I woke up with your name on my lips
I woke up with your lips on my imagination
I woke up with your name on my lips
I woke up with your lips on my imagination
ooh wooh hoo
Did you wake up with my name on your lips
or am I all alone in this infatuation?
uh huh
oh yeah
uh
oh
oh
Jackie when you're touching my soul in the candlelight
Jackie when I lost control in the heat of the night
Jack, Jack Jackie
Can't get you off my mind
I woke up thinking it was you
That I was the one that you'd always love
Did the same thing happen to you
If you don't feel what I feel,
I don't know what I'd do
uh huh
oh yeah
uh
oh
oh
Jackie when you're touching my soul in the candlelight
Jackie when I lost control in the heat of the night
Jack, Jack Jackie
Say you, Say you feel the same
Can't get you off my mind
I didn't know love could feel this good
I never let anyone inside
I pushed and I shoved
I felt out of luck
but with Jackie I've got nothing to hide
uh huh
oh yeah
uh
oh
oh
Jackie when you're touching my soul in the candlelight
Jackie when I lost control in the heat of the night
Jack, Jack Jackie
Say you, Say you feel the same
Can't get you off my mind
The song "Jackie" by Redzone is about being infatuated with someone and the hope that the feelings are reciprocated. The lyrics seem to be describing a relationship that is still in its early stages, with the singer waking up with the person's name on their lips and thinking about them constantly. The chorus is a plea for the person, Jackie, to feel the same way and to acknowledge the connection between them.
The line "Jackie when you're touching my soul in the candlelight" conveys a sense of intimacy and vulnerability, with the candlelight creating a romantic and intimate atmosphere. The singer describes losing control in the heat of the night, perhaps meaning they can't help but be drawn to Jackie and give into their relationship.
The line "I didn't know love could feel this good" suggests that this relationship may be different from others the singer has experienced before, and that they are feeling something deeper and more meaningful than they have in the past.
Overall, the song is a passionate and hopeful expression of infatuation and the desire for a deeper connection.

I always preferred this version to the BZ featuring Joanne version. This version has better production and sound quality. The BZ version had poor production despite that Joanne had an excellent voice.
@p6mkq
A decent tribute paid to the orignal song.
I find this version a bit more hotter and upbeat !

Hi, so I've fallen down a rabbit hole at 1am after hearing some version of this song on a TikTok video and I thought I had heard all versions of it now, but the description references THREE versions in the late 90s?! I know this video is not new, but if anyone can illuminate me on this there is hope I might one day sleep again.

The 3rd was by a Melbourne act called Zone 2 (a one-off project I think). It didn’t have a video
