    Whether you're an old fan of Drexciya or you've just arrived late to the party, Journey of the Deep Sea Dweller I is about as close to an essential compilation as you're going to get.

    Magnificently re-mastered... an exemplary introduction to the duo.

    The Drexciya reissue rightly returns the spotlight to the original electro's signature rhythms and analog palette.
