Following the re-release of Drexciya's essentials Neptune's Lair, Hydro Doorways, Harnessed The Storm, and Digital Tsunami, the reissue series continues with Transllusion's Opening Of The Cerebral Gate and the Mind Over Positive And Negative Dimensional Matter 12". Produced by the late James Marcel Stinson and released in 2001 via Supremat, a short-lived sub-label Tresor dedicated to a more abstract and experimental electro sound, Opening Of The Cerebral Gate was conceived as the second part of the so-called "Drexciyan Storms" -- a whopping stack of seven albums by the Detroit pair released under different monikers within a single year. This phase marks a groundbreaking time for the duo, their cosmos breaking wide open, right at the dawn of a new technological era in electronic music production. All this is deeply reflected in Transllusion's first album.

2022 marks the 20th anniversary of the passing of James Stinson and the releases of the Transllusion and Shifted Phases albums. In recognition, the rightsholders, their families, and the label have commissioned Detroit-based contemporary artist Matthew Angelo Harrison to re-conceptualize the covers of Tresor's Drexciya-related catalog. These editions will be released sequentially, bimonthly, and started in early-September 2022.
