Not all of their tracks release such high energy though. The aptly named “Everybody” will send the masses flocking to the dancefloor with a beat that’s part Lumines, part retro-funk and part disco boom bap all supercolliding together sending quarks and nuons through every appendage. The Ancient Astronauts employ a wide variety of sounds which intentionally or otherwise cause you to want to GET DOWN.
Indeed the Astronauts only want to spread their message to as many continents and shores as possible, and speaking with their beats can accomplish this feat. From the start to the finish of “We Are to Answer,” you will not hear a word of German spoken, although the Astronauts are certainly not intending to offend their gracious hosts in Cologne. Now one might think it would be hard for an english speaker to understand Kabanjak and Dogu, given that these travellers no doubt absorbed the native language of the country where their ship landed. A far-fetched premise to be sure, but hardly mind-boggling for hip-hop heads used to eccentric concepts from the likes of Kool Keith and MF DOOM. Witness the Ancient Astronauts, fronted by the duo of Kabanjak and Dogu, claiming to be interstellar travellers who journeyed the cosmos for eons before touching down in Cologne, Germany. Hip-Hop continues to be an international language all its own, more widely spoken and more easily interpreted than Esperanto could ever hope to be.
