This tune is honoring great band Cafe Drechsler, althrough it is far from their musical "level".

Drums by KOVI, drum looping, bass, virtual saxophone and Hammond via sampler by ZaYaC.

Name of song is a blend of band name Cafe Drechsler and name of their phenomenal drummer Alex Deutsch.

System Shock Elevator Music

This little tune was originally a mellow guitar riff recorded by KOVI, additional bass, samples and percussion by ZAYAC.

Name came from cult cyberpunk game System Shock, where elevator on Citadel Station played similar mellow tune...

...that tune was especialy ironic, when a horde of zombies attaced you when elevator reached certain floor...

Late March 2010...

Well, this song's irregular rhytm and tricky guitar line was created some months ago by KOVI.

ZaYaC finally added a bass line and samples. 

Wabi Sabi is a name of aesthetic line in Japanese culture, simply specified as "art of imperfection".

Recording sessions from January 2010

 One of thousands possible jam session configurations.

Well, we can play this thing better, there are also some clicks from peaks or synchronization in it...

...but still, it is worthy. As an example of full song for future recordings.
