A Hundred Years From Now 
by Caddigan, Brennan and Story (1914)

Every one today is going crazy,
Everyone today is going mad
Each one is trying to do something decidedly new
Just to put the rest in bad
Everyday they change the style of dancing
Everyday they change the style of dress
Oh, Boys what is it coming to?
That's a problem we will have to guess

I wonder what kind of life they'll lead 
A hundred years from now?
I wonder what's going to be the speed
A hundred years from now?
The girlies are setting a pace today
That's turning the locks of gold to grey
We're living a life of constant alteration

I wonder if they'll have a tango dance
A hundred years from now?
I wonder if men will wear short pants
A hundred years from now?
There's no solution
It's all evolution
I wonder, and wonder, and wonder
How much the girls are going to wear
A hundred years from now?

Picture this town that once was just a pasture
Picture the girls who roam'd it years ago
They were the wonderful kind
You know the kind I've in mind
The sort of girl the world calls slow
Think of a girl today out in a meadow
Raking the hay a la decolletée?
No chance not in a thousand years
The girls today are all for cabaret

I wonder what kind of life they'll lead 
A hundred years from now?
I wonder what's going to be the speed
A hundred years from now?
The girlies are setting a pace today
That's turning the locks of gold to grey
We're living a life of constant alteration

I wonder if they'll have a tango dance
A hundred years from now?
I wonder if men will wear short pants
A hundred years from now?
There's no solution
It's all evolution
I wonder, and wonder, and wonder
How much the girls are going to wear
A hundred years from now?

A Hundred Years From Now (Caddigan/Brennan/Story, 1914) [cover/version]

A much more tranquil companion piece to the main Versificatore Theme Remix. I love to dive into very small bits of sound and let them expand. Every piece of music can seed an infinite number of meditations, it's easy to get overwhelmed. I really just put this on to soak in it. Versificatore therapy.

The Agharo Mix Series

Agharo is a language, book, philosophy and tarot deck created by collective member Jaco Perroud. We invite a guest to pick a card at random and create a mix inspired by its meaning.

Our 16th submission comes from a Dj, Producer, Vocalist from Mexico - @nvongold

About
Skillfully blending indie dance, house, tech house and electro with a chic, underground allure, Vongold is one of Guadalajara’s most distinctive sounds on the rise. A resident at Polifonic club and a staple behind the decks of Bar Américas, she’s earned a cult following as one of the city’s most beloved selectors.

Her sets are a study in contrasts: elegant yet rebellious, hypnotic yet playful—crafted for late nights where music, fashion, and emotion merge on the dance floor. With appearances across Mexico, Vancouver, the U.S., and Madrid, Vongold’s global presence continues to expand, bringing a uniquely stylish, magnetic energy to every crowd she touches. 

The Card
Exilar ur ata Ios - Guardian of Water 

The Fifth was the Guardian of Water, Naen Koll was Novelty, presage, new instruction, emotion, superfluity. Flow, time, passing, movement, changing, past, present is future, washing of the soul, easiness, lightness. Letting things go. Becoming one with the essence and simplicity of the flow of water. 

Reality approaches and pass as the current of a river. Cleanses the soul with divine water. Change is needed. Brings health. Protects against the nature of fire. Against impurities of the soul and body. The first of the elements, born from Time –and a shape of it–, was water, followed by fire, that stirs the senses. Naen Koll, the fifth, is the Guardian of Water. Controller of the seas, lakes, rivers, streams and rains that fall over the earth.

How did the meaning of the tarot card inspire the journey of this mix?

I drew a lot of inspiration from the meaning of water and also try to mix Naen Koll  it with an important deity in Mexican mythology "TLALOC"  which is the Mexican god of rain, water, lightning, and fertility  - so, I thought about the storms we pray to happen, the omens that sometimes dwell within them—and I wanted to weave together tracks that carried these “organic” elements. 

There’s also a trippier side to it, a sonic exploration of that altered state you can reach when you truly observe and experience extraordinary ritual moments in water.  It’s a kind of meditation, almost a hallucination, and I wanted to capture that feeling and share it, hoping in some way it connects with listeners ...

Okay this one is probably definitely not going to be part of the Aulus-les-Bains EP, but I did make it there. One of my homework assignments, from Actress himself, was to dive into learning the M8 tracker I had brought along with me, and try to sync it up with the Ableton Move that was my main instrument. I eventually came up with this jam, recorded by propping my phone on the desk with a couple small speakers as I played it live, and that represents the peak of my time with the M8. (I donated mine to the school at the end of my stay.) With all the clicks and desk bumps, I don't think this is salvageable for proper release, but there's some stuff in the jam that I liked a lot...when you slow everything down to 20 bpm some cool stuff happens in the spaces. (I recorded the jam on my phone as a video, and then extracted the audio for this post.)
