Radio Darkzera: radio in diretta da São Paulo

Aspeeetta...

Spolveriamo la puntina…

São Paulo, Brazil

Radio Darkzera

No hit ever made it in.

Darkwave, coldwave and EBM for the small hours.

Radio Darkzera runs out of São Paulo on the premise that the dark end of the underground deserves a signal of its own, and it is assembled the slow way — continuous digging, close attention to what the scene is actually doing, nothing bought in ready-made. The station files a monthly Revelação Sombria, handing one new band or project the spotlight, and keeps the Mapa Underground, a crowd-built directory of the clubs, bars, dancefloors and record shops that hold the night together in cities across the country.

Darkwave, post-punk, coldwave, EBM and industrial run round the clock, and the flow moves with the hour rather than the chart: first-wave Manchester and London post-punk shares a stretch with the new darkwave duos, forty years apart and none of it softened. The weekly grid names its moods plainly — WarmUp Sessions, Darkwave Sessions, EBM & Industrial Night, Sessão da Meia-Noite.
