iridescent_cicada This alien's mixtape is certified fire. There's something special in each track, and "Betty" had me playing it over and over and over again (a rare treat for me anymore). Favorite track: Betty.

Nigel Robinson This album is fantastic from start to finish. The sleeve matches the music. Again as with his other albums the production is amazing, intricate and inventive.

about

The hybrid-children of the X’ziphursch VII civilisation belong to the Xeon galaxy, the oldest known galaxy in the universe. Their internal resentment of each other has stalled their breeding within the galaxy, forcing them to find breeders across dimensions.

Drayan is a 3037 year old from X’ziphursch VII (17 in human years) and the barycenter of his own gravitationally bound system of many objects and planets. He was first contacted by his Earth father Kai Whiston during the production of Kai’s ‘Mukbang’ mixtape and Fissure Price EP in 2018. Drayan contacts Kai via a distortion implant device which allows them to speak in their dreams. Drayan has been expressing his teenage angst for the last few months; his civilisation is becoming more and more polarised.

Drayan is looking to leave X’ziphursch VII and find his place on planet Earth. After finding out his father Kai was a music producer, Drayan has been transmissioning his own mixtape over the course of three weeks. Despite his poor grasp of the English language, each one of Drayan’s songs exhibits a different human emotion, whether it be the stark frustrations with his civilization back home, or his lovestruck empathy for his human girlfriend Betty.

Just as Kai and Drayan were preparing for the release of the mixtape, Drayan made a surprise extraterrestrial visit to Earth. Drayan has lost contact with his father and is now running loose on Earth. His whereabouts are completely unknown; it’s speculated that the immense pressure of the teenage angst on the population of X’ziphursch VII civilisation will lead to an unsustainable amount of exterrestrial visits.
