It sounded like Yoshida Bros! What? You're kidding, right? They play Japanese shamisen
 

This could sound amazing with Japanese shamisen.

Was THAT your daughter's work??  Wow.  I love the song, but those visuals are awesome. I hope she catches a wave and rides it to paradise - she's got a wonderful vision. Did she take those pics? DETAILS, dammit! I want details. I know people who might be able to help, if they think she's got some talent.

Oh yes! I love this song, as well as many other offerings from Euphoria.

Dude, are you even listening to the guitars?  No one was doing that in 80s electronica.  Methinks you're just fixated on the drums.

It means "for sure". The etymology comes originally from a word game that was first exposed in pop music in the song "Double Dutch Bus" in which they play the game on some kids' names. Snoop Dogg brought it back in recent years, starting with some of his songs on Doggystyle, and continuing through his more current albums.
