    We Have a Technical 615: Mom's Raid

    A classic two album format episode of the podcast has us revisiting a couple of eras in which "darkwave" meant something profoundly different from what it does today. First up is Bay Area act The Razor Skyline's rough and tumble and broad reaching 1996 debut, "Journal Of Trauma", followed by the slick NDH-leaning ambitions of In Strict Confidence's 2010 LP "La Parade Monstrueuse".

    We Have A Technical 614: Dig Deeper

    We're each picking five needledrops on this week's episode of We Have A Technical. A little bit different from discussion of soundtrack originals, we're talking about the use of existing songs in film and television, often for the purposes of a particular effect (and hopefully more than just the cheap recognition pop of "Hey, I know and like that song!").

    We Have A Technical 613: Ad Hoc Stir Fry

    Two bands each linked closely to their own time and place are the subject of this week's podcast, but that's where the similarities between Fiendflug and Tearist end. The debate and controversy surrounding the former's tapping of Nazi history and aesthetics invariably overshadowed their music, though we make an effort to discuss both aspects of Fiendflug's 1996 self-titled LP, while Tearist's 2010 debut pointed towards a changing of the guard in North American dark music which their vocal charisma and mix of styles primed them to lead, yet that was not to be.

    We Have A Technical 612: It's A Happening

    The tenth instalment of Vancouver's own Verboden festival is in the books, and as we've done for years we're here to break the whole affair down and talk about the live sets we caught from a slew of acts across a wide spread of dark genres, originating both from the fest's home in the Pacific Northwest and abroad.

    We Have A Commentary: Die Form, "Die Puppe"

    This month's commentary podcast makes a detour into the cryptic world of minimal synth with the 1982 debut of Die Form. A far cry from the lush and dramatic club darkwave the French act would go on to be known for throughout the 1990s, Die Puppe is instead an exercise in atmosphere and an at times infuriating absence of formal composition. We discuss the nascent themes of perversion and transgression in Philippe Fichot's work, as well as the project's thought-provoking connections to classic industrial soundscapes.

    We Have A Technical 611: Surely

    Scene producer extraordinaire and Inhalt mastermind Matia Simovich joins us for a lengthy discussion of the role of the producer, his philosophies of record production, and of a couple of specific landmark scene records he's helped bring to fruition.
