Hubert Kah released a great collection of mixes from their heyday recently and I decided to dig up their hit album Tensongs. "Drowning" was always a favourite of mine. A very experimental, ominous sound, courtesy of producer Michael Cretu, the man behind the biggest sucesses of Sandra and the Enigma project. You actually hear Hubert Kah's singer, Hubert Kemmler, on many of Sandra's biggest hits (in Maria Magdalena : "You're a creature of the night").
I especially love the first minutes of the track. In the second half, it all seems to fall apart and dissolve into a mush. Quite fitting for a song named Drowning, ofcourse :)
This entire song is absolutely amazing, you're right in saying that this song is experimental. That is what Hubert Kah does best. However the second part of the song to me, leaves so much to the imagination. Imagine what a music video might look like to this song, if ever there was one made. A lot of his songs were experimental, especially 'Gigolo' and 'Golden Zeiten' which as well in the second half would just be instrumental and leaving the listener to come up with their own interpretation
