with sa012 dadub carefully collate legacies of philosophical thought and transpose them into a brilliantly deep ep. the vinyl opens with >perseverance< a slick slice of bass that writhes and twists around a syncopated core. on a2 >temptation of maya< seizes at the act of perception and what is captured is perfect for the mellow confusion of a sunday morning. on the flip side the search for transcendence goes further with >beyond the veil< which crackles towards a sense of enlightenment. the ep closes with a golden moment of contentment, >moksha<. the track titles hint at the search for revelation, which is rendered in countless experimental layers and finely wrought details. sa012 is a peek into the conceptual framework that dadub engage with to create their vision. and just as their central image, maya, is intangible in the perceptible universe, the tracks seem to erupt from an equally mystical place: molten, dark and fathomlessly deep.
this is the first part (of four) of the much anticipated reissue series of drexciya s early catalogue, marking 20 years since the release of their first ep deep sea dweller , and 10 years since their final album grava 4 . one of the most influential techno acts ever, and part of the heritage of detroits underground resistance, drexciya explored techno like no-one else before: raw and uncompromising music that reflected the harsh environment of the city where drexciya was conceived, with a mythical approach that only added to their cult appeal. drexciya arguably stands for the darker side of techno and electro, made not only for the club scene, but a further development of the music as an expression and extension of the mind. journey of the deep sea dweller is a near-complete collection of their early works, released in four parts, with all audio remastered from the original master tapes. since the original releases have such a strong character and stand on their own, these reissue can never recreate the magic of those originals. instead, clone have stirred up the catalogue, taking tracks out of their original context, giving the committed fan a fresh experience and the new listener a document that is the best possible introduction to the aquatic world of drexciya.
