sound exists to be stolen, cut up, re-arranged, and turned on its head. good sound, once produced, should be preserved for proper arrangement. docile #21 is a collection of elements that have been captured from unique sources and fused into fluid creations. environment and progress of time are catalysts for a creation to form a process. dociles nameless and faceless process works to liberate a new sound and describe its’ own natural pattern. docile connects to the random to pull out patterns, those patterns can be honed down to construct a logical but abstract funk. mistakes are made and processed and reworked into a melody. nonsensical, indiscriminant, drunkin funk turns to soulful harmony with presence and conviction. immature tantrums and rambunchous crunching mask a bi-polar need for smooth rides with snacks and naps.

after his big success with waehlscheibe 003, p. laoss returns on the swiss label with another dub house masterpiece. the german producer has once more switched on his reverb and delay gear and created a wonderful record full of fluffy chords, gentle pads and heavy basses. >rephrasing dub<, >i dont care< and >never though< all display the mans musical mastery in terms of harmony, variety and dramatic expression. in his remix of >i dont care<, federsen from san francisco has taken the crispy deep original and turned it into a broken beat stunner brimming with dubby crackles, noises and delays – all created with his analogue machines. as always all tracks have been mastered by above smoke at the hole of dub studio.

portlandia house bastion ecstasy termed temples 2012 debut mini-lp, i-vii, ambient jack, which captures something of the projects contradictory strengths: airy yet agile, sparse but plush, flights of intuition mapped onto morphing grids of percussion, crystalline electronics, and pastel skylines. avalon kalins latest collection of tech finery, earrings ii, dials back the atmospheric quotient somewhat, though theres still a rock garden spaciousness to his mixes, each element arranged with regard to some higher harmony, the poetry of negative space. recorded in his home studio while dancing, the four tracks here ebb between passages of pressure and release, euphoric but unstable, dusted with pyramid-chamber slap back and live dubbing acrobatics. their melting clock asymmetries more closely echo kalins hardware improvisations with scott goodwin as polonaise than the velvet vocal house of his other solo vessel, finesse, but temples is ultimately a holy place all its own. a sleekly compelling statement from one of the pacific northwests secret heroes. mastered by eric hanson. edition of 305

luckily there werent any of the anticipated refund claims for the first two chapters of >if this is house i want my money back<. so we finally dared to compile number three. the concept of the compilation is pretty simple: we ask friends, pv regulars, and other good looking producers, who are famous for dancing around the edges of the genre, for an exclusive track, all of which we put together on one neat compact disc. this time the bill reaches from hot shot producer mano le tough (who celebrated his permanent vacation debut on vol. 2 of this series), maeve label buddy the drifter, the swedish house mafia in form of house dandy axel boman and edit ramajam hnny, rising star lake people, long time vacationer bostro pesopeo (together with local munich dj san quentin) and sizzling newcomer boska to the jack of all trades willie burns, fellow nyc resident octo octa, berlin-based melody masters kim brown, the neukölln acid kingpins achterbahn d’ amour (aka iron curtis & edit piafra) as well as hotflush and we play house regular locked groove. each and everyone of the participants are more than convincing in what they are doing and although they have different perspectives on the long runner house music, the tracks come together in sweet harmony on this compilation

vasundhara ep flows across the edges of two orders, the natural and the human one, and their mutual cohabitation into the figure of the shaman. the journey starts with epileptic heritage: the reminiscence of an ancient holy disease as primordial key to touch the invisible core of the nature, a spasmodic harmony led by a broken cadenza and distortions.leaving the self and becoming part of the whole. erratic rituals portrays this moment of involving other beings into a state of consciousness through rituals:a collective mystical ecstasy of glitchs and percussive mantra.

an imaginary country continues from the trajectory of tim heckers last album, the critically acclaimed harmony in ultraviolet, while also showing a few new tricks. tim has incorporated more pulses into this work and also works with a sound pallete including overdriven mellotron strings and synthesizer. at times this album is less overtly aggressive than previous works, but the notion that this is pastoral work would be dead wrong as there are plenty of the agitated crescendos that he is know for. this music backs off from the void of immensity in favor of a terrain of lushness and warmth.

mole city is not in the tradition or deviating from the tradition – it is the tradition. after two decades of launching drums, guitars and pianos through the shifting interzones between harmony and chaos (moonlighting along the way with the likes of sleater-kinney, wild flag, elliott smith, built to spill and a long list of others), quasi are a genre of their own - they write songs in the style of quasi, and mole city is the quasi song book: parlour sing-alongs for the last century.

achim maerz takes electronic abstraction back to a state of organic harmony and rythm. his ep >long time no see< reveals a soundscape of intimacy and evolving grooves. reduction broadens its horizon. all sounds are carefully placed and a sustaining atmosphere keeps developing from song to song. still each one is an individual scenery of its own. >keys of my soul< delicatly moves through wide rooms while >shake, shake, shake< leads closer to the core of groove. the backbeat driven >system< already possesses a pushing groove which mutualy connects it to >long time no see< with its warm pulsating baseline. achim maerz approach to house shows how much is possible if self-limitation leads to creativity.

3 tracks inside and outside the tradition of classical scores and synphonies usually divided into 4 times, where elements of the composition are back with a deep or shallow drama. the sounds of heavy techno and rough hardcore are slowed down in a minimalistic and environmental casing. atmosphere and climate are counterpointed by a vision and historical journey that fuses and confuses the machines with the meat: replaces and softs the sincopatic moments of time that is missing. bruit as a psychic disorder and a lack of physical stability, phonies as futile attempt at harmony and empathy.

ida engberg describes collage like so: not many things in life beat the true experience of the perfect party. that definitive moment when location, music and people all come together in the same place to create that perfect shared experience. it is about that vibe that can only exist when all those components work together in perfect harmony.

this is the sound of the future four. led by andy meecham, the brains behind the emperor machine, bizarre inc and chicken lips amongst many others, and captures the excitement, diversity, strangeness and harmony of the uk underground sound of the early 90s. we are talking about the sparse dub mix on side 2 of the 12 inch single, machines making mistakes and changing the course of history, the dark side of the rave away from the neon and the white gloves, future four points the way to the dimly lit corner of the dancefloor and makes you move. after a recent discovery of boxes of old s950 and mpc60 floppy discs full of sound sets dating back to the early 90s, all three tracks have been produced solely on the mpc 3000 in staffordshire, and in perfect unison of north and south, mixed by erol alkan in london.

the soft rocks collective feature twice on the upstart black rox label with two heavily tribal remixes for a so far unknown artist. the soft rocks take on *filaw* is wrapped in horns and jungle sounds - not too far off a 1970s brian jackson and gil scott heron collaboration. on the flip is a possible talking heads reference in *once in a life time*, which gathers mesmeric african drums and percussion, grooving in harmony to ritualistic chant. a mohican david byrne perhaps?

vagabundos, the dj, club and event collective from lucianos cadenza stable, returns for its biggest year yet.

finally, a new, true doering, whose other name dirty is something of a fake-out: >i would< captivates the listener with clean, maximum minimal beauty, in typical doering style. the melodies swing gentle as a cradle, the beats take effect in a supporting role and the vocals, though sparsely deployed, complete the demand for inner harmony. the elements combine to create a languorous, warm feeling around the heart û a flawless hit.

just one touch has been a long time coming but it emerges as a classic ode to house past and present. porto based producer social disco club was sat on the track for two years before miss bee added her dusky vocals. frayed and taught with emotion, her voice works in harmony with the gritty analogue sounds that drive the track.

it is easily believed that the juxtaposition of the words black and opera make no sense. we are here to disprove that idea. the black opera has been created with the purpose of uniting opposing worlds and making perfect harmony through multi-genre artistic expressions. with members located in atlanta, chicago, detroit, new york, los angeles, & paris, we dont claim just one place, we take the world.
