Description

"We Are To Answer" was the 2009 album debut by german production duo Ancient Astronauts on Thievery Corporation´s label ESL Music and has never been released on vinyl before.

Their very name, “Ancient Astronauts,” implies a mash-up of the distant past and the far future; traits exemplifed in their melding of old school hip hop, funk, and dub reggae with forward-thinking flair and production technique. The Ancient Astronauts are Kabanjak and Dogu hailing from Cologne, Germany. . .via outer space! Coy with their true origins, the duo can only confrm that they returned to planet Earth in 2001 after traveling the musical cosmos for thousands of years.

"We Are To Answer" features guests such as The Pharcyde, Tippa Irie, Raashan Ahmad, Bajka, Azeem and more. A block-rockin’ boom-bappin’ sonic tour-de-force, "We Are To Answer" is a musical vision of life on Earth and beyond!

The album features Ancient Astronauts most successful song to date "I Came Running", which has more than 10 million streams on Spotify alone.

International press quotes:

“Bridging the gap between library beats and straight-up club funk ain’t nothing but a Saturn Ring for the Ancient Astronauts. Prehistoric space explorers probably built the pyramids, so it’s no surprise that they’ve got the right stuff when it comes to making those moon booties bounce!”
Wax Poetics Magazine/USA

“a refreshing, genre defying, cross pollinating masterpiece”
Pathaan (BBC Asian Network/UK)

“Yes, this is a slice of great German hip hop.”
BBC Online (UK)

“The album is a beautiful slice of hip hop ingredients, dub-tinged spices and jazz chili sauces, all blended into a heady stew of breakbeat wonderfulness.”

“Like the album guys. Good job.”
DJ Vadim (Ninja Tune/BBE/UK)

“Peeped the CD, good stuff.”
Beni B (ABB Records/USA)

"Melding old school hip hop, funk and dub-reggae with forward thinking flair and production, the duo of Kabanjak and Dogu come from Cologne with a fresh take on quality, contemporary hip hop with soul."
