SOMEWHERE IN DETROIT (Detroit, MI., USA)

Drexciya - Uncharted EP - S.I.D-005
A. Hi-Tide
B. Dr. Blowfin’s Experiment
NOTE: The S.I.D. series 12’s were EP’s that were supposed to be exclusive to the Submerge Somewhere In Detroit store. The idea was that the only way you could get them was to physically visit the shop on the ground floor of Submerge’s building. A few of them occasionally turn up at other shops, though. There were a few previously unreleased tracks from Drexciya, UR, and a couple of other artists released this way.
Thanks to Submerge’s refusal to play the “release and delete” game, though, these don’t fetch the exorbitant prices a lot of other limited availability releases do. - Dave Walker on IDM list

HARDWAX (Detroit, USA?)
L.A.M. (Life After Mutation) - Balance of Terror EP - HW 004 - early 1990’s?
* 6 tracks (with no titles)
NOTE: A pre-Drexciyan release is without a doubt the L.A.M. record on Rob Hood’s Hardwax label. There are no inscriptions in the record (apart from NSC, of course). The A-side runs from inside out whereas the B side is normal. I do not know the publication date but considering the publication policy of Hardwax (number 10 was published this spring) the record came out in the early 90’s. - Benjamin Holzwarth

RED PLANET (Detroit, MI., USA)

DREXCIYA RUMOURS:
It is rumoured that one or more Drexciya members have been or are at the moment in such groups as Elecktroids and Dopplereffekt. Even “Mad Mike” Banks has been connected with Drexciya once or more times. Since very few people know the actual identities of Drexciya, these rumours will undoubtedly go on and on.
