Description
Vanishing Peoples of the Earth (VPE) is a duo formed by Keisha Hutchins and Doug Hirlinger. In the winter of 2002-03 VPE gained recognition for their debut CD You Might Be One of Us... on NotNice Records. The music on the CD began taking shape in early 2000 after the two met in New York City where both lived at the time. The music survived various tribulations, none more profound then the death of Keisha's Mother, Sandra Hutchins, six months prior to the projects start. The effects of this event resonate throughout the album. The two moved to Hutchins' hometown of Philadelphia in September 2001 just before the 11th where they later finished the recording. Most of the music was recorded and mixed in various bedrooms until a relationship was formed with engineer Craig White at Philadelphia International Records (Gamble/Huff Studios) where the duo finished up recording and mixing. The material from You Might Be One of Us... draws mostly on the heavy influence that electronic music was having on the two musicians as well as individual interests in hip-hop, world music, jazz, and 20th century classical music. Nonetheless VPE managed to create an accessible product with a sound capable of popular music status.
