The long-time collaboration between Doc Schoko and play loud! began in 2006 with “silver monk time – a tribute to the monks” (pl-02). Village Voice’s Don Allred wrote: "Doc Schoko's doom-swallowing Sei Still smirks at its English-speaking doppelgänger, Shut Up."

In 2009 play loud! released Doc Schoko´s album “schlecht dran / gut drauf” (pl-07) in conjunction with the film "Doc Schoko: Oktopus im Pentagram".
On this record some of his heroes shine through but never dominate what is too much Doc Schoko himself. Mark E. Smith (The Fall) invited Doc Schoko to be his supporting act or as we say in German to be his VORGRUPPE. “schlecht dran / gut drauf” was mastered by founding Faust member Hans-Joachim Irmler.

Other releases by Doc Schoko on play loud!:
(pl-13) einen gegen (2001/2009)
(pl-14) tränen + wölkchen ep (2004/2009).
