Doenja grew up in The Netherlands, Lisse, a little village wellknown for it’s flowers and the Keukenhof. As a kid she always said she wanted to become an artist, but not in music, in painting! She took lessons in drawing and chose it as one of her courses in pre-university education. In the last year, after painting three pictures that said everything she wanted to say at that time, she changed her mind and decided to study economics.
In the mean time her love for music had grown, especially for trance music. As the ideas for drawings had disappeared, she started looking for a new hobby and a new way of using her creativity. She purchased an easy programme to create music with samples. After two songs the programme became boring, because there wasn’t enough creative challenge in working with other people’s ideas. Two months after deciding that she wanted to write her own music the idea for Live your dream just popped up in her head one night, and kept her awake for many nights, along with lots of other ideas, until she finished the first version.
While working on that first version, she got many other ideas for tracks and got so excited that she decided to invest in better software. With the new software she made new versions of Live your dream, while learning how to work with it in the process. The results are the mixes you can listen to and download on this page. You can also find her two new tracks "Total confusion" and "Losing you" here.

Total Confusion
The Entranced Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Not even sure of where I am
All I know, is I know nothing
And it's cold and lonely where I am
Seeing lights and hearing voices
But I'm just trapped in my illusions
Without those sounds, without those noises
The lyrics of The Entranced's song Total Confusion are deep and introspective. The singer seems lost, confused and isolated, describing their situation as cold and lonely. They do not know where they are going or even where they are at present. The singer's introspective nature is further highlighted when they confess that they know nothing.
The second verse suggests that the singer is experiencing some form of psychosis. They seem to be hallucinating, seeing lights and hearing voices, but they are unable to differentiate between reality and illusions. These illusions have engulfed them to the extent that without them, the singer is left with total confusion. The tone of the song is melancholic and reflective, conveying a sense of helplessness and vulnerability.
Overall, the song seems to be about the feeling of being lost, of not having a clear understanding of oneself and one's place in the world. The singer is caught in a cycle of confusion, unable to break free from their illusions and see reality.

I don't know where I'm going
My destination is unknown to me.
Not even sure of where I am
I am uncertain of my present location.
All I know, is I know nothing
I am aware of my ignorance.
And it's cold and lonely where I am
My current surroundings are desolate and unwelcoming.
Seeing lights and hearing voices
I am experiencing sensory perception.
But I'm just trapped in my illusions
My perception may be distorted and unreal.
Without those sounds, without those noises
In the absence of any sensory input.
There's nothing, but total confusion.
All I can discern is a state of complete disarray and disorientation.

Yeah I know, the video is a bit simple. I just wanted to have something out here. I've made some more recordings with my camcorder to create better video's for (most) of my radio edits when I've got time between creating new songs/collaborations...
