SöuR is coming out of the club scene in Los Angeles, Sativa and Clint have always shared the schizophrenic sensibilities of club kids who love rock. Big, mean, ugly, fuzzy, tuned-down and folding-over-itself, distorted rock. From their “Horribly Adorable” theatrical band, Daisyface, they have grown into a style that still keeps one eye on indie rock, one eye on the dance floor and one eye on the electronic metal that got them moving in the first place. Their third eye is owned by DD. Master of the riff, and convinced that “shredding is back,” DD keeps the club kids from spinning out into space.
III.
Drum and bass DJ from Bucharest, Romania. The alias "Sour" was born out of graffiti somewhere in 2007. A year later while he was listening to music on the internet, he stumbled upon for the first time over drum and bass. He fell in love instantly with this kind of music and started increasingly attending dedicated parties belonging to this genre. He began his activity as a DJ in 2012, beeing oftenly invited to (dnb) parties. He chose this path, out of the desire to always keep his audience electrified, through increasingly richer sets. In 2014 he had the oportunity to mix at the Arena dnb, for celebrating 10 years of Dub Police (a respected label from the stage) alongside artists such as Caspa, Brookes Brothers and Ethic.
Currently he is practicing intensely for refining his own style, specifically histechnique, following that along the way he will start producing on his own.
IV) Sour is a Hardcore band from Ohio.

SouR Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
喋る言葉もなくしたんだ
隣を歩く君の横顔を見つめて
ただ気付かないふりをしたんだ
その頬に流れる涙の意味が
まだわからない間抜けな僕は
去って行く君の背中に
ゴメンとだけ呟いた
僕が無くしたのはどこのピースだろう
寂しさで汚した心
真っ白な空白に浮かべて
虚しさだけが残るこの部屋で
そっと巡るよ君の記憶を
ゴムのように引き伸ばす毎日
途切れそうな声で僕らは笑っていた
変わってしまった心の形を
無理矢理あてはめてみるけど
痛いんだ 苦しいよ 君を傷つけて
寂しさで汚した心
真っ白な空白に浮かべて
虚しさだけが残るこの部屋で
そっと巡るよ
探そう僕と君の形を
例え同じ風景にいなくても
笑いあって寄り添った日々の
欠片抱いて眠るよ
The song Puzzle by SouR has a heavy emotional impact that can be felt through the poignant lyrics. The opening lyrics describe how the two people in the relationship have lost touch with each other, and the singer is trying to reach out to their partner but does not know how to communicate. The phrase 'just pretending not to notice' creates a sense that the singer is ignoring the pain and the problem which is causing the relationship to fall apart. The second verse talks about how the singer still cannot understand the meaning of the tears on their partner's cheek, and as a result, they apologize to them while leaving. The singer realizes that the future they had planned together now feels like a puzzle with missing pieces.
The chorus describes how the singer's heart has been stained with loneliness and how the memories of their partner are all that is left in the empty room. The lyrics "stretching the rubber-like memory" signify how the singer is trying to hold onto the past, but it is slipping away, and they are trying to piece it back together like a puzzle. The final verse talks about how the singer is trying to find the shape of their relationship, even if they are not together physically, and how they are holding onto the fragments of the happy moments they shared in order to sleep at night.
Overall, the song Puzzle by SouR describes the struggles of trying to hold onto a relationship that is falling apart and how the memories of a happy time can be both a blessing and a curse.

WOW Dawg. You never stop to get me "PUZZLE"-D. Next time you in Exuma I wanna hear you perform this one. Real Dancehall flavor from a Bahamian.
