I'm not so sure about "the Other people place" LP. Some of the tracks have that sure-footed Detroit-electro sound that only Drexciya can put out, but a couple of tracks sound like dated early 90's bliss-out electronica. Unfortunately these tracks seem to weigh the rest of the album down, IMHO.
The less said about "Neptune's Lair" the better to be honest. Such a let down after their earlier material. ----- Original Message ----- From: Niko Tzoukmanis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <313@hyperreal.org> Sent: Monday, January 14, 2002 9:50 AM Subject: RE: [313] drexciya LP > a note on the recent dimensional waves transmissions.. > laptop cafe on warp is my favourite album from last year, > (alongside funk all y'all ;O)) this is the real detroit > stuff, in a midnight drive style but more chilled. this > album is a must for any 313er imo > transllusion is harder, dark at times, a brilliant album > and, did anyone mention the new japanese telecom album > on gigolo ? > have there ever been more drexciya releases than in 01 ? > > > At 07:32 14.01.02 -0000, you wrote: > >Neptune's Lair - don't diss man, that's sacred! :o) > > > >No, I'm kidding.
