End of status report


In 1981 the seminal kraut-fusion band Embryo had a crisis. The consequences of that crisis have been good for us, music lovers. In that year after Embryo travelled Afhanistan, India, Pakistan and other exotic locations to produce the glorious Embryo: Reise, Uwe Mulrich, the bass player decided that he was indeed a nomad. Exactly like one of those beduins he had seen in the desert, he was in need of wandering, but although the rest of Embryo members had in them the little devil of adventure, they also had family and bussiness to take care of, so they went back to Berlin while Mulrich recruited two more travellers like him: Marlon Klein and Frido Josch, thus forming what was called at the beginning "Embryo Dissidenten" (Dissidents from Embryo), later to retain the first part of the name. A legend was born. In 1981 and 82 they travelled accross half India and played with the famous Karnakata College of Percussion. They also joined fellow american sax-adventurer Charlie Mariano, and extraodinary singer Ramamani, from Bangalore. In 1983 they relocated to Morocco and there with the help of producer and friend Sultan Abdessalam Akaaboune, they released "Sahara Elektrik"and album like no other the world had seen before, an audacious intrution in a world forbidden to western man. An album that has proven to be extensively influential along the last two decades, not only opening the ears of western rock listeners to middle eastern music but aslo helping some arabic artist to penetrate the western world, notably the now famous Cheb Khaled, Chaba Faddella, Rabi Abou Khalil, Safy Boutella and many others.
