Drexciya - The Quest

http://www.discogs.com/release/12117

Could it be possible for humans to breath underwater? A foetus in its mothers womb is certainly alive in an aquatic environment.

During the greatest holocaust the world has ever known, pregnant America-bound African slaves were thrown overboard by the thousands during labour for being sick and disruptive cargo. Is it possible that they could have given birth at sea to babies that never needed air?

Recent experiments have shown mice able to breathe liquid oxygen. Even more shocking and conclusive was a recent instance of a premature infant saved from certain death by breathing liquid oxygen through its undeveloped lungs. These facts combined with reported sightings of Gillmen and swamp monsters in the coastal swamps of the South-Eastern United States make the slave trade theory startlingly feasible.

Are Drexciyans water breathing, aquatically mutated descendants of those unfortunate victims of human greed? have they been spared by God to teach us or terrorise us? Did they migrate from the Gulf of Mexico to the Mississippi river basin and on to the great lakes of Michigan?

Do they walk among us? Are they more advanced than us and why do they make their strange music?

What is their Quest?

These are many of the questions that you don’t know and never will.

The end of one thing...and the beginning of another.

I obavezno pogledati: http://www.discogs.com/viewimages?release=12117 

Verujte mi, muzika nije ništa manje uvrnuta od ovog gore teksta. 

Drexciya je bio jedan misteriozni projekat Detroitske electro/techno scene, kome se sa sigurnošću znao samo jedan član (koji je pritom pokojni već neko vreme). Naleteh na ovo slušajući radio na Detroit Techno grupi (Last.fm), pa pošto je to interesantna tema sama po sebi, nadam se da ćemo trišmegišto i ja u međuvremenu dobaviti još legendarnih albuma pa da uživamo u retro ludilu.:]

+ intervju od čitavih 27min:

jako zanimljiv intervju, covek je "lud" u pozitivnom smislu 
moram ovo da nabavim

[Nemanja]

 
nabavio sam.
Super stvarno super, bas prijatno iznenadjenje.
Ne znam zasto ali me asocira na Black Dog-ovo poslednje izdanjem, ili mozda gresim

[сталкер]

Haha, jesi li slušao "Aqua Jujidsu", ta mi je jedna od luđih?

Pa neke veze ima, barem ovako teoretski. The Black Dog je, iako iz Engleske, bio povezan sa tom scenom, pogotovo tamo početkom '90tih. OK, ovo je kasnije izdanje (1997), ali je to taj zvuk, nije nešto drastično drugačiji. A ovaj novi Black Dog je poprilično retro, samo malo umiven, tako da.. eto. Tako mi se barem čini.

[pawwa]

Au! Retro

Baš mi odgovara, mogu povući paralelu sa AFX-om u neku ruku (kod ovih više elektro orijentisanih radova), baš zbog TR-808 drum mašine i tih sumanutih melodija : D Supa gut!

[Nemanja]

Malo sam se razocarao u drexciyu kad sam poceo da slusam ove projekte koje je radio sa strane, moze se primetiti da je krao sam od sebe. Mislim na bass linije koje sam bas primetio da se ponajvljaju u nekoliko pesama iz razlicitih projekata 
Al jbg. i dalje je super

[сталкер]

U moru raznih sporednih Drexciya projekata, evo još jednog izvrsnog!

Ova pesma je totalni vrh, haha, pazite naslov i refren koji se uključuje negde na pola...

Po nazivom Abstract Thought, James Stinson 2002 izdaje odličan album Hypothetical Situations koji je negde na pola puta između Drexciye i The Other People's Place. Groovy!
