It's essential in music that's designed entirely and specifically for long harmonic blends. You won't find me complaining if acid techno or breaks DJs go easy on the key matching, because those guys earn their money in different ways.

prog and trance just sound gross if the keys don't match at all during the mix.

It was some NY radio show I think? Luke Chable got asked where the vocals are from and even he doesn't really know anymore. But that what makes them so great, they're so emotional and yet genuinly mysterious, something which is pretty rare in the music of the internet age.

Also, I see this thread as an invitation to post some MCprog



Love this track. I don't like as much of this stuff as I used to two or three years ago, but still love this one.

Where from?

Originally posted by Chimney Where from?

Well being a Morrissey and Smith fan it was common knowledge for me.


Dr Konstantin Raudive (1906-1974), a student of Carl Jung, was a Latvian psychologist who taught at the Uppsala University in Sweden. He was preoccupied with parapsychological interests all his life (especially with the possibility of life after death).

Electronic voice phenomena (EVP) were investigated by him and a German parapsychologist Hans Bender. Following the publication of Raudive's book on his research (Breakthrough: An Amazing Experiment in Electronic Communication with the Dead, 1971) these phenomena are now often referred to as "Raudive Voices", who claimed to be able to record the voices of the dead in his 1971 book, Breakthrough: An Amazing Experiment in Electronic Communication with the Dead.


Now for the actual sample. What you are hearing is the translator that happened to be a woman explaining what was being said as Dr Konstantin Raudive and his his colleague spoke in a few different languages during this experiment and the so called EVP voices from the dead being recorded also spoke in a few different languages as well, so there is a woman explaining everything being said in English after you hear it in another language.


.Click the link below and download Side 1 (MP3)
(it's only 10 minutes long) and skip to 6:22 in the sample if you don't feel like hearing it all.

The sample is mostly used in the PQM Original Version and some other Versions but it is also used sparingly in the PQM Meets Luke Chable Vocal Pass Version as well. I think you first hear it at 44 seconds into the song before the lyrics kick in and then a few other times throughout the song.

The MP3 sample you are hearing is a recording that came from some kind of audio recording that came with the 1971 Book mentioned above. It also was part of a bonus disc you would receive for taking up a subscription to a UK Magazine back in the day. And the person above is also correct as it was shown on a show in New York Radio or Television but I do not know the time and date of that. But this sample has already been used word for word by The Smiths in their 1985 b side song Rubber Ring that later received much notoriety for being such a personal song into Morrissey's thoughts about his hardcore of fans growing out of his adolescent music at the time and this song was his nudge to let these fan how he felt about it. The song later appeared on The Smith's - Louder Than Bombs Album. And countless other newer compilation CDs. There is a great chance the members of PQM were fans of The Smiths and tracked the Origin of the sample or perhaps they were into Dr. Konstantin Raudive. That is up in the air but what I did find interesting is what I just learned about Dr. Konstantin Raudive attempts in trying to reach the dead.

read below.


The initial point of the project is Dr Konstantin Raudive�s attempts to break the boundaries between the living and the dead. Raudive made 70 000 tape-recordings claiming he was communicating with voices from the other side.

Each night begins with a theatre performance of approximately one hour, where two directors and four actors work with Raudive�s methods alongside other texts and material; from Ingmar Bergman to O.J. Simpson.

The reason we use the theatrical performance as an initiation for the audience, is to make sure we create some kind of common reference and understanding of the main topic, i.e. perception.

^^^ I almost wonder if the lyrics to this song could have been from one very odd performance... but I doubt this for a few reasons.


Here is The Smith song that contains the exact same sample. If you can not stand the song then just skip to 3:32

I know, that was what I said at first. Like most of the people on here I know where the female sample came from and the title of the song but not where the lyrics came from or what inspired them.

I always pegged it as a William Burroughs story. Just sounds like one.

Discogs credits it as a sample of "Hoes Gotta Eat Too" by "DJ Xenamorph." No real info on DJ Xenamorph that I can find, though.

DJ Xenamorph is also credited as the source of the vocal sample in this tune: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cR6yae6MGko

So, who is he? Some uber-underground producer who doesn't release anything but provides vocal samples for more mainstream producers to use?

its my mom.

She has a nice deep voice.

It's just a typo of DJ Xenomorph, who is a fake PQM collaborator. You'll see him pop up in the credits for various PQM tracks, playing instruments or providing vocals. I'm pretty sure "Hoes Gotta Eat Too" is a fake record.

So, I assume people have already tried asking PQM himself where the monologue is from.

Well, I was about to reply to Woony saying it's pointless asking Luke Chable about it because he just remixed the track. PQM isn't easy to contact, though. His website is ghetto as fuck.

Or was it PQM? I don't really remember, but as I've said it apparently was from some NY radio show.

You can actually get a hold of him very easily through Facebook (www.facebook.com/djpqm).


Also, I thought the guy talking/telling the story was some radio personality from back in PQM's NY days? I recall reading somewhere that it was excerpted from a reading for an old radio show or something. I thought everyone knew that?

That's what you're talking about, right?




edit: Durrrr. I didn't see Woony's post.

I figured it out

I've figured out the source for the spoken word sample in You Are Sleeping. You can find this information at
