Tauhid Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 "Heart complication". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hahathhat Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 was it a genetic disorder, dooming him from the start? was it the aftermath of years of stimulant abuse? or did he simply work himself to death? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tauhid Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 I think it's all unknown? I've never seen an explanation anywhere. You can tell from pictures though that he was overweight. Could've been caused by clogged arteries and all that. Edit: Here's something: http://drexciyaresearchlab.blogspot.com/2006/09/james-stinson.html "James Stinson, founder member of electro-techno outfit Drexciya, died on September 3rd in Newnan, near Atlanta, Georgia, from what have been described as 'heart complications'. Stinson, who was 32, had been ill for some time, even instructing record labels with whom he had deals to go ahead and release his music should he not live. Prior to his death he had been working as a truck driver, a job he said he enjoyed because of the time it gave him to think." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hahathhat Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 maybe, maybe not ! i don't need his deepest secrets, but the info released was quite vague. addition: i remember it being mentioned he moved away from his home of detroit due to atmospheric conditions or something. better climate.... or perhaps one with less ingrained patterns?

He mentioned that in the radio interview, moving to Atlanta over Detroit. I don't think he was a drug user personally, just someone with persistent health issues, as someone mentioned earlier. http://drexciyaresearchlab.blogspot.com/2006/09/james-stinson.html"James Stinson, founder member of electro-techno outfit Drexciya, died on September 3rd in Newnan, near Atlanta, Georgia, from what have been described as 'heart complications'.

A working techno scientist...and to think some of us could have literally passed by the Drexciyan visionary on the highway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're absolutely right. It's also very enjoyable to find out about his other stuff not under the Drexciya name. Just got The Abstract Thought LP from Discogs, love the opener. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3RUYtZCdn0&feature=related Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Promo Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 I love how LUDD is hardcore (and has a great tatse in music) but at the same time you feel like you could ruffle his hair and then go play swingball without feeling gay. What is with that? Can't say I ever had the same feelings myself lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The BOC subforum is pretty inane too, in fact fuck it. Lets just rewipe it all, give LABELS subforums (i.e. "Rephlex", "Planet Mu", "Skam" etc!)
