Podcasts about Gothic

Vials of blood…that's probably your main association with Billy Bob Thorton and Angelina Jolie, right? In the spirit of spooky season, Mel tells the tale of this 2000s Gothic couple. He was a 45-year-old, late bloomer “hillbilly” from Arkansas on his fifth marriage. She was a beautiful, brooding 25-year-old Hollywood “nepo baby” on her second. All the stars aligned for these two dark and twisty social outcasts to find each other and French kiss on red carpets.  While their relationship might have evolved to be a mere footnote in the bigger Brangelina saga, this episode proves that the past IS prologue. Join us as we look back at their controversial affair featuring a scorned Laura Dern, tattoos, matching burial plots, and a flame that burned too bright for daylight.  ***** This is a teaser for a bonus episode— the full episode is 2 hours 15 minutes long!

What to Do When Visiting Mechelen, BelgiumNestled between Brussels and Antwerp, Mechelen is one of Belgium's most charming yet often overlooked cities. With its rich history, vibrant culture, and welcoming atmosphere, it offers visitors an authentic Belgian experience without the crowds. Whether you're spending a day or a weekend, here's how to make the most of your visit to Mechelen.1. Start at the Grote MarktEvery great visit to Mechelen begins in the Grote Markt, the city's picturesque main square. Surrounded by beautifully restored guild houses, cafés, and the imposing St. Rumbold's Cathedral, this is the heart of local life. Grab a coffee at one of the terraces and soak in the view of the impressive Stadhuis (Town Hall), a blend of Gothic and Renaissance architecture.2. Climb St. Rumbold's TowerFor the best view in Mechelen, climb the St. Rumbold's Tower, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The 97-meter tower offers panoramic views stretching all the way to Brussels and Antwerp on a clear day. The climb includes several stops with exhibits about the tower's history and its world-famous carillon bells.3. Visit the Dossin Barracks and MuseumThe Kazerne Dossin Museum provides a powerful and moving experience. It tells the story of Belgium's Jewish community during World War II, focusing on the deportations that took place from this very site. The museum balances historical insight with personal stories, making it a deeply reflective visit.4. Discover the Beguinage QuarterWander through Mechelen's Beguinage Quarter, a maze of cobblestone lanes and quaint whitewashed houses. This peaceful neighborhood once housed a community of beguines—women who lived religious lives without taking vows. Today, it's a serene area perfect for a quiet stroll and a glimpse into medieval urban life.5. Explore the River Dijle PathFor a unique view of Mechelen, walk along the Dijlepad, a wooden boardwalk that floats above the River Dijle. This scenic walkway winds through the city, connecting green spaces and historic buildings, offering a tranquil way to experience Mechelen from a different perspective.6. Tour the Hof van Busleyden MuseumThe Hof van Busleyden Museum, housed in a Renaissance palace, showcases Mechelen's role during the Burgundian era. The exhibitions blend art, history, and innovation, providing insight into the city's golden age when it was a major center of European politics and culture.7. Visit the Het Anker Brewery and DistilleryNo trip to Mechelen would be complete without a stop at the Het Anker Brewery and Distillery, one of the oldest breweries in Belgium. Located in the heart of the city, Het Anker has been brewing beer for more than five centuries and is home to the famous Gouden Carolus range. Join a guided tour to learn about traditional brewing methods and sample a selection of their award-winning beers straight from the source. The onsite distillery adds another dimension, producing fine Gouden Carolus whiskies that have gained international acclaim. The adjoining brasserie is the perfect place to enjoy hearty Belgian dishes paired with their signature brews.8. Experience the Toy Museum (Speelgoedmuseum Mechelen)For a touch of nostalgia and fun, visit the Toy Museum of Mechelen, one of the largest of its kind in Europe. This museum showcases an extensive collection of toys from across generations—ranging from antique dolls and model trains to classic board games and modern LEGO creations. It's a wonderful experience for families and adults alike, offering both playful exhibits and thoughtful insights into how toys have evolved over time. Children can participate in interactive play areas, while adults will find themselves reminiscing about their own childhood favorites.9. Taste More Local DelightsBeyond Het Anker, Mechelen's culinary scene continues to impress. Try Maneblusser, the city's other signature beer, named after a local legend about the townspeople mistaking the moon's glow for a fire in the cathedral tower. Pair it with Flemish specialties at one of the city's many excellent restaurants, from traditional brasseries to modern bistros.10. Visit Technopolis with the FamilyIf you're traveling with children, Technopolis is another must-visit attraction. This interactive science museum encourages hands-on exploration, with exhibits that make learning fun for all ages. It's located just outside the city center and is a perfect choice for a family day out or a rainy afternoon.11. Relax at the Botanical GardenEnd your day with a quiet moment in Mechelen's Botanical Garden (Kruidtuin). Originally part of a monastery, it's now a beautifully maintained park with lush greenery, flowers, and shaded benches. It's the ideal spot to unwind before heading back to the bustling Grote Markt for dinner.12. Stay a Little LongerMechelen may be compact, but it rewards those who linger. With its blend of history, culture, and modern charm, it's the kind of city where every street holds a story. Whether you're climbing the cathedral tower, tasting Gouden Carolus at Het Anker, or rediscovering childhood memories at the Toy Museum, Mechelen invites you to slow down and truly experience Belgium at its best.*We mention a few other Belgium episodes to go check out!

Three Ravens Haunting Season is now officially risen from the grave, hungry for coziness and chilling tales of terror!As in previous years we begin this Monday episode with two winning tales from our annual Three Ravens Ghost Story Writing Competition. The first of these, "Cold" by Susanne Okulitch, offers up a cool bit of class discussion set against a backdrop of an ice cold Alpine blizzard, while the second, "The Lion Tamer" by Maria Williams presents something altogether stranger, though perhaps more heart-warming in the end. Lastly comes Martin's new story for this week, "Uncle Wilf." Another slightly offbeat tale, it features a certain amount of Gothic gloom, then becomes a tale about cycles of time, grief, and family. Hopefully it still freaks you out, while also reaching for something else. Not least, to please The Master...Fingers-crossed you enjoy all three, and speak to you again on Thursday for our Magic and Medicines Bonus Episode all about Voodoo!Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcastProud members of the Dark Cast Network.CLICK HERE TO COMPLETE THE THREE RAVENS ACAST SURVEY - PLEASE DO!

Harriett is joined by Silvia Moreno-Garcia to discuss her chilling bestseller Mexican Gothic. The story begins when Noemí Taboada, a glamorous socialite from 1950s Mexico City, receives a desperate letter from her cousin Catalina, claiming her new husband is poisoning her. Unsure if Catalina is mad or truly in danger, Noemí rushes to High Place - a decaying English manor transplanted to the Mexican mountains. But is she to be the rescuer, or the unwitting prey of the evil that festers in the bones of the house? High Place, and its inhabitants, want Noemí, and it will take all her courage and ingenuity to save her cousin, and herself. A masterful blend of gothic suspense, startlingly vivid imagery and dark romance, Mexican Gothic has sparked intense fascination from readers around the world - and Silvia Moreno-Garcia will be answering questions from our global audience of book lovers. Why is Gothic literature seeing a resurgence in the 21st century? How does horror allow us to explore themes of colonialism and sexual violence? And where is the very real cemetery that inspired the setting of High House?

Police have issued an international arrest warrant for Sydney rapper Harley Johan, known as 'YC EWZY', over the murder of Niddal Acherkouk who was shot dead at a Surry Hills petrol station in November.

Featuring a award winning all-trans cast, Re: Frankenstein will bring this Gothic masterpiece to glorious un-life. Did you love The Magnus Archives, The Silt Verses, Camlann, The Sheridan Tapes, or Midnight Burger?

BSMC National "P" Humiliated, Forced to Remove His Colors by 1%ersToday on Black Dragon Biker TV, we're talking about a hard lesson from the motorcycle set that many clubs don't want to face — but need to hear. The StoryBeing in a motorcycle club is one of the greatest feelings in the world for many bikers. From riding clubs to 99%er family clubs, the fellowship and lifestyle are unmatched. But when your club exists in the same ecosystem as 1%er/outlaw MCs, there's another side you have to deal with — protocol.If your club respects and follows MC protocol, you'll usually ride the set in peace. But if you refuse? Things can get ugly.In today's story, the National President of the Mighty Black Sabbath MC Nation allegedly ignored and refused to recognize MC protocol. The result? He was humiliated and forced to remove his colors by 1%ers.️ The LessonThis situation serves as a warning to every MC: Disrespecting or ignoring MC protocol can escalate fast. What starts as a “tongue-lashing” can quickly turn into violence, shootings, war, prison, or even graves. The wise will view this as a lesson, not entertainment.

Mary unearths the vampire - exploring the vampire's Eastern European origins, metaphorical and economic vampirism, and two essential Gothic vampire texts: Polidori's The Vampyre and Bram Stoker's Dracula.

In this NBN episode, NBN host Hollay Ghadery speaks with Siphiwe Gloria Ndlovu about her phenomenal novel, The Creation of Half-Broken People. (House of Anansi Press, 2025). Stupendous African Gothic, by the winner of Yale University's Windham–Campbell Prize Showcasing African Gothic at its finest, The Creation of Half-Broken People is the extraordinary tale of a nameless woman plagued by visions. She works for the Good Foundation and its museum filled with artifacts from the family's exploits in Africa, the Good family members all being descendants of Captain John Good, of King Solomon's Mines fame.Our heroine is happy with her association with the Good family, until one day she comes across a group of protestors outside the museum. Instigating the group is an ancient woman, who our heroine knows is not real. She knows too that the secrets of her past have returned. After this encounter, the nameless woman finds herself living first in an attic and then in a haunted castle, her life anything but normal as her own intangible inheritance unfolds through the women who inhabit her visions. With a knowing nod to classics of the Gothic genre, Siphiwe Gloria Ndlovu weaves the threads of a complex colonial history into the present through people “half-broken” by the stigmas of race and mental illness, all the while balancing the humanity of her characters against the cruelty of empire in a hypnotic, haunting account of love and magic. SIPHIWE GLORIA NDLOVU is a Zimbabwean writer, scholar, and filmmaker. She is a 2022 recipient of the Windham–Campbell Prize for Fiction. Her debut novel, The Theory of Flight, won the Sunday Times Barry Ronge Fiction Prize in 2019.

In this NBN episode, NBN host Hollay Ghadery speaks with Siphiwe Gloria Ndlovu about her phenomenal novel, The Creation of Half-Broken People. (House of Anansi Press, 2025). Stupendous African Gothic, by the winner of Yale University's Windham–Campbell Prize Showcasing African Gothic at its finest, The Creation of Half-Broken People is the extraordinary tale of a nameless woman plagued by visions. She works for the Good Foundation and its museum filled with artifacts from the family's exploits in Africa, the Good family members all being descendants of Captain John Good, of King Solomon's Mines fame.Our heroine is happy with her association with the Good family, until one day she comes across a group of protestors outside the museum. Instigating the group is an ancient woman, who our heroine knows is not real. She knows too that the secrets of her past have returned. After this encounter, the nameless woman finds herself living first in an attic and then in a haunted castle, her life anything but normal as her own intangible inheritance unfolds through the women who inhabit her visions.

Do you have any thoughts or ideas about the show? Send us a text! Hello Creators,Autumn leaves are falling, temperatures are dropping, and for many creators, an uneasy feeling creeps in as we evaluate what we've accomplished this year. If you're feeling that familiar pressure that comes with seasonal transitions, you're not alone.In this deeply atmospheric episode, we explore how the changing seasons can trigger creative anxiety and the feeling that we haven't achieved enough as the year winds down. I share some gentle reminders about the importance of self-compassion during these transitional times. There's absolute wisdom in slowing down, celebrating small victories, and breaking unfinished goals into manageable pieces for the future. For my fellow ADHD creators, I offer practical tips on keeping those goals visible and achievable.The perfect companion to these autumnal reflections comes as Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu's gothic novella "Carmilla." Chapter 5 takes us into a world where the past mysteriously intrudes upon the present through an uncannily familiar portrait. As moonlight bathes the castle grounds, Carmilla's passionate confessions and sudden withdrawals mirror our own creative ebbs and flows. The ancient portrait, dated 1698, connects both women to a forgotten lineage, raising questions about identity and inheritance that resonate with our own artistic journeys.Whether you're wrestling with creative doubts or simply seeking an atmospheric escape as Halloween approaches, this episode offers both practical wisdom and gothic enchantment. Sleep Tight,Florence xSupport the showOur Links: www.sleeplesscreativespodcast.co.uk Our producer Instagram Linkedin Do you want to feature as one of our Guest Readers in your own special episode?

For most people, home represents comfort, safety, maybe family. It's the place where you can be yourself — and where you keep all your stuff. For the wealthy, the right home can mean status, reputation, and legacy, especially in the UK. For hundreds of years, the traditional English manor was more than simply a big house staffed with servants. It was a grand home situated on farmland owned by the family. In addition to being a showpiece, it was a responsibility. The US equivalent is a Gilded Age mansion, minus the need to worry about the welfare of tenants. Those 20th-century robber barons could simply count their money and throw lavish dinner parties. And in Europe, the history and luxurious accommodations come in the form of palaces, chateaux, castles, palazzos, and other opulent estates. In this episode, we explore the house -as-character in books by iconic authors, including Jane Austen, the Brontë sisters, Nancy Mitford, and a gaggle of Gothic writers. We also delve into the real secrets of the Winchester Mystery House and meet the various ghosts haunting British country piles. Then we recommend many books we love set in notable manor homes, including: The Original by Nell Stevens The Little Stranger by Sarah Waters The Cherry Robbers by Sarai Walker — and the audiobook The Murder of Roger Ackroyd by Agatha Christie Wakenhyrst by Michelle Paver — and the audiobook For more on the books we recommend, plus the other cool stuff we talk about, visit show notes.

Welcome to the She Wore Black Podcast. I'm Agatha Andrews. Today I chat with Leanna Renee Hieber about her new book, AMERICA'S MOST GOTHIC, that she wrote with Andrea Janes. It's a look at America's haunted history through the lens of Gothic tropes. They interviewed me as part of their research, which was quite an honor, and they used my interview with Neil McRobert on my “What is Gothic?” episode in the book. So, dear listener, you will definitely recognize things you love about She Wore Black in this book. Leanna and I also talk about her favorite ghost stories and tropes, and the respect we owe to the histories of the people behind the ghost stories. I do want to issue a trigger warning. When we discuss our favorite tropes, the story and information I contributed to this book is about the Suicide Brides of the Driskill Hotel. You may want to skip ahead if that topic is upsetting.

Respect is the currency in the MC world, and if you don't know how to carry yourself at another club's function, you could be setting yourself — and your club — up for trouble.---We'll Break Down:

Enforcers LEMC Burned in Gang Violence Riviera Beach police have arrested a man they say set fire to a Riviera Beach LEMC earlier this month. Randall Ray Love, 47, has been charged in connection with an arson investigation at Enforcers Motorcycle Club, which was set ablaze at around 6 a.m. on Sept. 11. Join us to find out the dumb ass reason why! Is there gang banging going on in the LEMC community? And after we played that hateful, racist video yesterday from a local Detroit reporter, we heard from our constituents in a big and loud way. On this case the streets are talking because of the unfairness of the whole situation. The Afro Dogs have taken it on the chin and are being blamed for something that is entirely not their fault. What happened resulted from the usual suspects and not from them. Therefore their name should be cleared. They had nothing to do with shooting 90 rounds at their clubhouse. Join us as we discuss.

On this episode we trace the vampire's long, shadowy journey, from 18th-century graveyard panics and Slavic strigoi to the seductive aristocrats of Gothic fiction and the conflicted immortals of modern pop culture. We also will go into how the  myth evolves on screen, from Nosferatu and Bela Lugosi to Anne Rice, Buffy, and beyond. We explore why the vampire keeps returning to embody everything we fear (and secretly crave): mortality, contagion, seduction, power, and immortality.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Tucked away on a quiet hill in Staten Island stands the Kreischer Mansion—a Gothic relic with a past so grim it refuses to stay buried. In this episode, we revisit Portals to Hell and their unnerving investigation of this historic home where the line between residual memory and intelligent haunting blurs uncomfortably thin. As Jack Osbourne and Katrina Weidman peel back the layers of the mansion's sordid history—arson, mob murders, and lingering whispers in the walls—we break down the most chilling moments and debate what exactly is clinging to the house after all these years.

90 Shots Fired at Afro Dogs MC!Today on Black Dragon Biker TV, we're diving into another violent headline out of Detroit. Detroit ShootingReports from CBS News Detroit confirm that a security guard was injured after shots rang out outside the Afro Dogs MC clubhouse. The incident happened around 5 a.m. on Ewald Circle when Detroit Police responded to a ShotSpotter alert. The victim suffered non-life-threatening injuries to his leg, but this adds to the long list of recent violence linked to MC gatherings.

The panel discusses five poems by E.A. Robinson, with discussion centring on their use of the gothic, their shared imagery of death and hell (and their response), and particularly their formal qualities seen across three villanelles and two sonnets.Continue reading

Paradise Lost formed in Halifax, England, back in 1988, and from the start they carved out a reputation as pioneers of the death-doom sound. Their second record, Gothic, released in 1991, reshaped heavy music by weaving melody, keyboards, and gothic atmosphere into the slower, heavier framework of doom metal. That album set the stage for an entire subgenre, and over the next three decades Paradise Lost would keep evolving—sometimes experimenting with electronic elements, sometimes returning to pure heaviness, but always circling around the same dark, melancholy gravity. Their mid-nineties high point, albums like Draconian Times, showed how their knack for blending soaring melody with bleak subject matter could reach both critics and a wider audience. Through lineup changes and shifts in the metal scene, the core of Nick Holmes, Gregor Mackintosh, Aaron Aedy, and Steve Edmondson has stayed intact, giving the band remarkable stability over nearly forty years. With more than two million albums sold worldwide, their influence runs deep across doom, gothic, and extreme metal.That long history sets the stage for Ascension, the band's seventeenth studio album, released September 19th, 2025, on Nuclear Blast Records. It's their first collection of new material since Obsidian in 2020, making this the longest wait between original albums in their career. The release also marks a turning point, as it is the final record with drummer Guido Montanarini, who departed earlier in the year. Produced by guitarist Gregor Mackintosh and mixed and mastered by Lawrence Mackrory, the album was recorded at Black Planet Studios in Yorkshire and in Swedish studios for drums and vocals. The cover art is The Court of Death by George Frederic Watts, a Victorian painting steeped in allegory, perfectly in line with the album's themes of mortality and despair.Ascension offers ten tracks, beginning with “Serpent on the Cross” and including “Tyrants Serenade,” “Lay a Wreath Upon the World,” and the lead single “Silence Like the Grave.” It balances crushing riffs and dense atmospheres with gothic grandeur, delivering what Paradise Lost have always done best. Critics across the board have praised the record. Tuonela Magazine called it one of the strongest in their catalogue, while Angry Metal Guy highlighted the consistency and lack of weak songs, even if “Sirens” didn't land as powerfully as the rest. GhostCult singled out Nick Holmes' performance and the sheer force of the rhythm section. Most agree the band hasn't reinvented themselves here, but instead delivered a refined, cohesive statement of what Paradise Lost represent in 2025.The significance of Ascension is that it feels less like a radical new chapter and more like a powerful reaffirmation. After almost four decades, Paradise Lost remain vital. They don't need to chase trends or reinvent themselves; they simply have to continue walking the path they created in the first place. With Ascension, they prove they're still doing it with conviction, consistency, and the same bleak sense of grandeur that has kept their music resonant for so long.Videoshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2M1yG0qmT0QAt The Gates - Blinded by FearCooperhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpxFUo7oxWMPowerwolf - We Drink Your BloodMikhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvuCvGUpFpARoyal Republic - Stayin' Alive (Official Video)Jesse Starcherhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17lFxyH4YE0Fra Diavlo - Every Irish Song EverMarkhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1_kMRiyt5wPARADISE LOST - Tyrants SerenadeDisclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59 

The corridors of Athens Lunatic Asylum echo with over a century of troubled history. For 119 years, this imposing Gothic structure in Athens, Ohio served as home to thousands of patients – many of whom never should have been there in the first place.What began as a forward-thinking facility designed according to Thomas Kirkbride's humane principles eventually devolved into a crowded warehouse of human suffering. The shocking reasons for commitment ranged from legitimate mental illness to simply being a troublesome teenager, experiencing menopause, or even masturbating. Women were particularly vulnerable to unnecessary institutionalization, often admitted for normal biological processes like menstruation or childbirth-related conditions.Our exploration reveals the asylum's darkest practices, including unsedated lobotomies where doctors inserted ice picks through patients' eye sockets while they were fully conscious. We uncover the mysterious case of Margaret Schilling, who disappeared within the asylum in 1978 only to be discovered 42 days later. Her decomposing body left behind a permanent human-shaped stain on the concrete floor that resists all cleaning attempts – a haunting memorial to her tragic end.Today, Ohio University owns this massive property, repurposing many buildings while preserving their haunting history. With 1,930 former patients buried in unmarked graves and countless stories of paranormal activity, Athens Asylum stands among America's most haunted locations. Journey with us as we separate urban legends from documented horrors, examining how mental health treatment has evolved from these troubling beginnings.What would it take for you to be committed to an asylum in the 1800s? Listen to discover how close you might have come – and why these historical practices should never be forgotten.Thank you for listening to the Paranormal Peeps Podcast.

In the world of writing, the path to becoming a published author is often shrouded in mystery. For many, it's a journey filled with rejection, self-doubt, and the tireless pursuit of a story. But what happens when that journey not only leads to publication, but to a place on the prestigious Sunday Times Bestseller list?This is the story of B.P. Walter, a master of psychological thrillers and horror. In a fascinating interview on The Writing Community Chat Show podcast, Walter shares his insights on crafting compelling fiction, the power of persistence, and how a surprising change of plans turned his dream into a full-time career.The Turning Point: When a Pandemic Helped Launch a Bestseller.One of the most compelling parts of the interview is the behind-the-scenes look at how Walter's third book, The Dinner Guest, became a game-changer. Despite having two previous novels published, it was this book that captured the attention of readers and the industry.He reveals a stroke of good timing: the book was released in April 2021, just as UK retail shops were reopening after lockdown. People poured into bookshops, and The Dinner Guest was ready and waiting to be discovered. This momentum, combined with an "incredible promotion," propelled the book to number one on the Times chart, changing his life and allowing him to commit to writing full-time.Demystifying the Writing Process.For aspiring authors, B.P. Walter offers invaluable, practical advice. He candidly discusses how his writing process has evolved over 10 books. Initially, he didn't focus on word count, but a tight deadline forced him to adopt a more disciplined approach. Now, he aims for 3,000 words a day when actively drafting a manuscript.Perhaps his most surprising tip came from the Faber Academy, where he learned the power of planning.

Youtubehttps://x.com/JHX9officialSpotifyFacebookBioClinton Township, MI. Detroit-born synth-pop innovator JH-X9, the artistic alter ego of Justin Horbes, is making waves with his latest single “Heavy Water.” for fusing moody industrial textures with infectious, danceable rhythms, JH-X9 delivers a hypnotic soundscape of fluid melodies, mechanical beats, and haunting monotone vocals that linger long after the track ends.“Heavy Water started as a cyclical melodic line,” JH-X9 explains. “It carried this fluid, melancholy, slightly ominous vibe. The Roland D-10 keyboard gave it an oceanic, melodic theme, almost like Enya's new age atmosphere, but twisted into something mechanical and danceable.”The single highlights his signature ability to strike a balance between industrial grit and rhythmic drive. Layered arpeggiated bass lines and pounding mechanical beats create an atmosphere that is both mesmerizing and immersive, designed for any setting from the club floor to late-night drives to quiet moments of reflection.Rooted in Detroit's rich techno heritage, JH-X9 embraces the city's industrial DNA. “Detroit techno has this robotic, factory-like sound, which I try to carry into my music,” he says. Vocoder-driven backing vocals add a semi-human, robotic undertone, reinforcing the tension between machine precision and emotional depth.A self-taught producer, JH-X9 has evolved from experimenting with percussive sounds made from pots, pans, and junk metal to mastering hardware synthesizers, crafting tracks with polished percussive textures and deep 808-inspired bass. “Heavy Water” reflects that growth, pairing raw experimentation with refined production.The track has already gained recognition from DJs and mix shows within the darker electronic scene, including features on Communion After Dark, a showcase for Gothic and darkwave music, and Synthentral, a program spotlighting synth-pop and electronic exploration. Fans and critics alike have praised “Heavy Water” for its haunting yet danceable structure and stylistic versatility.“Right now, my focus is on versatility,” JH-X9 notes. “I draw from Eurobeat, J-pop, industrial, and techno. Heavy Water is a reflection of that evolution. It is stylistically unique, but it is also distinctly me.”For new listeners and longtime fans, “Heavy Water” captures JH-X9's bold approach to electronic music, blending melody, rhythm, and mechanical textures into an experience that feels both futuristic and unforgettable.About JH-X9JH-X9 is the creative alter ego of Detroit-based musician Justin Horbes (b. 1999). He released his debut album in 2016 while still in high school, earning coverage from international music blogs and radio shows including X-Ray FM's Songs From Under The Floorboard and Italy's Whitelight//Whiteheat. In 2019, JH-X9 performed his first live show opening for French coldwave duo Lovataraxx. Today, he continues to push the boundaries of electronic music, merging industrial, techno, and synth-driven elements into a sound that is as moody and mechanical as it is immersive and danceable.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! Deep in rural Kansas, hidden within a near-ghost town, stands a building frozen in time — a haunted church built in 1904. With its towering spires reaching toward the heavens and a presence that dominates the empty prairie, it looks like something out of a Gothic novel. But behind its weathered brick walls lies more than just history. It holds stories… and spirits. For more than a century, this sacred space has witnessed life's most defining moments: baptisms, weddings, and tearful funerals. The prayers, laughter, and grief of generations seem to cling to the air, embedding themselves into the very wood of the pews. Though the congregation has long since vanished, many believe the faithful few never truly left. Now, paranormal investigator Robert Garcia and his team have taken on the challenge of restoring this abandoned landmark. Their mission isn't only about saving a piece of Kansas history — it's about resurrecting a church where the dead still gather. While repairing the structure, they've encountered chilling activity: whispers echoing down the aisles, phantom footsteps crossing the altar, and shadowy figures slipping between pews as though Sunday service never ended. Is this activity a residual haunting, the lingering echoes of decades past? Or are these intelligent spirits, former parishioners still tied to the house of worship they once called home? The answers lie within the walls of this forgotten church, where faith and fear intertwine. This is Part Two of our conversation. #HauntedChurch #KansasHauntings #RealGhostStories #HauntedPlaces #Ghosts #ParanormalActivity #AbandonedChurch #HauntedKansas #ParanormalPodcast #TrueHaunting #GhostStory #HauntedHistory Love real ghost stories?
