3kelves is taewook 루카스 kang. Originally born in South Korea, now located in San Francisco, he broke out on the scene by winning Disclosure's remix contest — twice! This brought him worldwide recognition, with spins on BBC Radio 1, Capital Dance, and opening sets for acts like Purple Disco Machine, Chromeo, and SG Lewis. He now makes his transition to full-on poet, with an EP that showcases his sense of groove, while also delving into deeper subjects. He calls this an EP of existentialist disco jams.

On my back
Carry all the buried signs
Dissipate
Childhood starts to fade away
Right on track
California runs away
Secret signs
Call my brother I’m on my way
Tried to make this easy
Failed to make this right
Wanted us to happen never was the time
Tried to kill this feeling
Failed to kill the time
Should've learned to love
Tried to make this easy
Failed to make this right
Wanted us to happen never was the time
Tried to kill this feeling
Failed to kill the time
Should've learned to love
Buried dirt
Stolen from the ground beneath
Burning earth
Take care of my sympathies
Sacred words
Shared between the hummingbirds
Incomplete
Please forgive my similes
I can't think straight
I don't eat so well
I can't sleep straight
I don't feel so well
Tried to make this easy
Failed to make this right
Wanted us to happen never was the time
Tried to kill this feeling
Failed to kill the time
Should've learned to love
Tried to make this easy
Failed to make this right
Wanted us to happen never was the time
Tried to kill this feeling
Failed to kill the time
Should've learned to love
Tried to make this easy
Failed to make this right
Wanted us to happen never was the time
Tried to kill this feeling
Failed to kill the time
Should've learned to love
Tried to make this easy
Failed to make this right
Wanted us to happen never was the time
Tried to kill this feeling
Failed to kill the time
Should've learned to love
