Pleasures

Electronic / Hip-Hop producer Undocument has made the new goal for his latest album, the eighteen track Pleasures one that some might find peculiar: make music that people pay attention to. Unlike his debut release, 2012's For Lovers, Dreamers & Non-Believers, which settled more on the ambient side of electronica, Undocument's follow-up is decidedly more in-your-face, sporting a number of tracks that aim to grab your attention (and even make you dance) instead of simply fading into the background. What really sets this new release apart is how Undocument has expanded his instrumental roots by involving multi-talented vocalist MaQui Sainz on breakout track 'This Lullaby'. Additionally, tracks such as the brooding 'Melancholian' or the dysfunctional faux R&B track 'Slumberous' all expand the sonic palette for the Long Beach, Ca. based producer, where a subtle recurring piano melody, a spacious driving beat, or even a detuned choir sample combine to make the album an emotional and accessible listen.
