Dewdrops in the Garden
Dewdrops in the Garden is the third and final studio album by American dance music band Deee-Lite, released in August 1994 via Elektra Records. The album saw the group move away from the overtly political lyrical content of the previous album, shifting into themes of dance and intimacy with a heavier lean into psychedelic music. Background. At the time of the release of "Dewdrops in the Garden", Lady Kier had compared it to "Infinity Within", saying: The album drew inspiration from Lady Kier's travels to the Hopi ruins in the Painted Desert and pyramids  in the Yucatan and Dmitry's travels to the Grand Canyon and Joshua Tree. The inspiration was clear in Lady Kier's description of the track "Music Selector is the Soul Reflector": Most of the work on "Dewdrops in the Garden" was done by Super DJ Dmitry and Lady Miss Kier joined by Kansan producer Ani Schempf (DJ Ani, also known as DJ On-E and DJ Ani Quinn). Towa Tei had left the band to do some work on Japanese pop star Nokko's album and his own debut solo album "Future Listening!", and he was said to be  back for the band's fourth album, which was never made. Even through his absence, Tei contributed various production to the tracks "Call Me", "Party Happening People", "DMT (Dance Music Trance)", and the "Funky Chunky Bonus Beats" portion of "What is This Music?". Shortly after the album's release, a companion album titled "Dewdrops in the Remix" containing four remixes of "Picnic in the Summertime," four mixes of "Bring Me Your Love," and six mixes of "Call Me" was released in Japan. "Bring Me Your Love" and "Call Me" became their last two #1 hits on the Hot Dance Music /Club Play chart. Track listing. All tracks written by Deee-Lite.
