DF n°129, Interview with ALLERSEELEN, March 14th, 2011

As we went to Barcelona in February to see an acoustic show in the forest by Arnica, a band we love, we met Gerhard Hallstatt from Allerseelen who was on holidays in Catalonia, but who was also working on his next album on which Nuria from the Barcelona-based band Der Blaue Reiter is going to sing. This interview was part of a very happy moment, around good food and good drinks. A lot of nice people were there, Demian from O Paradis, Sergio from Escama Serrada, Isaac from L'Horrible Passion, David from La Esencia and Francisco from zine Sekuencias de Culto. Even though it was raining, Gerhard took the microphone and sang some of his classic songs after Arnica's concert. A very memorable moment.

DF n°124, Interview with ASMUS TIETCHENS & Review of THE PSYCHICK BIBLE, December 20th, 2010

We met Asmus Tietchens as he came to play at the venue Lieu-Commun in Toulouse. This guy is a real genius and he has produced so many albums that it was quite hard to know where to begin with. During the same show, we did a review of the French translation by Camion Noir of The Psychick Bible, the cult book by Genesis P. Orridge. Jean-Pierre Turmel of the label Sordide Sentimental did a wonderful job on that book so it was necessary for us to talk about it.

DF n°122, Interview with ATARAXIA, November 22, 2010

Ataraxia is a band we followed since their very beginnings in the early nineties. The androgynous, powerful voice of Francesca Nicoli was very impressive and we could already feel the originality of a great band. They are very literate people, excellent musicians and they have tried many different things throughout their career which shows their will to always explore new territories. When we learned about their playing in Lyon, we took our car, even if it was a long ride, and went to see them because we knew we would not be disappointed. The show was just excellent, presenting a lot of songs from Llyr and Kremasta Nera, and a heart-breaking cover of "Gloomy Sunday" with lyrics translated into Italian. Francesca Nicoli has charisma and generosity, and I was happily surprised when she told me we could make the entire interview in French, with her charming Italian accent.

Here's the playlist:

JOB KARMA, Empire's collapse

DF n°121, Interview with NICOLAS WINDING REFN, November 8th, 2010

Since we saw the film Fear X, we knew that Nicolas Winding Refn's visionary talents would make him one of the most important film directors of today. The fascinating beauty of such experimental works as Bronson and Valhalla Rising confirmed it. We met him as he was beginning to shoot his coming film, Drive, which received a Prix de la Mise en Scène at the Cannes Film Festival the following year. We talked about art and cinema, of course!

DF n°119, Interview with THIERRY ZABOITZEFF, October 11th, 2010

The dark, expressionistic and poetic compositions of Thierry Zaboitzeff have always been what fascinated us the most in Art Zoyd's albums. He created a very personal universe and language that is much easily described by images than by words. We met him during the Rock in Opposition festival in Carmaux in which he played some of his most well-known pieces, especially the ones he made for Art Zoyd like "Unsex me here" or "Baboon's Blood". Even though his physical appearance can seem quite terrifying, he is a very charming, good-tempered, almost shy person when you get to talk with him.

Here's the playlist:
