Opalize [ˈoʊpəˌlaɪz] | To make something shimmer with shifting colours. When applying saturation or distortion to an audio signal, we often do so to add harmonics – to make basslines more audible on small speakers, add punch to drums, or help synths and instruments cut through the mix. In short: We want to sculpt the harmonic content of our sounds precisely – without introducing obvious, unpleasant distortion.

Crow Hill is proud to introduce you to the dulcet tones of award-nominated singer, song-writer and composer Dot Allison. Throughout her esteemed career she has been in huge demand by AAA artists, acts and composers as diverse as Massive Attack, Paul Weller, and Scott Walker to lend her “voice like honey” not only in song but as an instrument of its very own. Here now for the first time is a unique opportunity to add this rare voice to your palette. A key ingredient of subversive film scores of the counter-culture era. What zeitgeist elements unify a violent cop caper, murder suspense thriller, murder suspense thriller and chilling horror film from the late sixties/early seventies? Well its the use of softly sung solitary female voices. Not in song, but just the pure innocent tone as an instrument. These scores became key influences on Dot’s work as a composer are three seemingly unconnected edgy noir-ish films from the heyday of maverick film-making in the counter-culture era. But also an era where scores branched away from established musical tropes, experimenting with use of hyper-realistic instruments and effects, electronics, jazz, funk and non ‘western’ instrumentation.
