Dopplereffekt will be playing live in London on 2nd February 2018.

I've uploaded a video for the audio of the talk about Drexciya that was part of The Ocean After Nature exhibition at Dublin's Hugh Lane Gallery. This happened on 25th November and was a conversation between myself and Richard Brophy (DJ Magazine/First Cut Records), who is one of the few journalists to have interviewed Drexciya twice. This was followed by a DJ set by Sharon Phelan and a live performance by Dopplereffekt.

The subject of the Zong Massacre, when 133 slaves were thrown overboard in 1781, and a painting that depicted this, The Slave Ship (1840) by J.M.W. Turner, came up during the talk on Drexciya at Dublin's Hugh Lane Gallery. This was in relation to Drexciya's origin mythology. This massacre is also referred to by The Otolith Group in their film, Hydra Decapita (2010), which has been screened as part of The Ocean After Nature at the same gallery and runs until 7th January 2018.

Part 2 of Jim McCormack's All Drexciya 2 hour mix is up now at this link.
