This podcast is everything you could want from a Darkwave music mix. It's interesting in its music choices, following a general darkwave theme but veering off to the left and right every now and then to something very interesting and different. It's very well produced, and doesn't fall back on tried-and-true dark wave tracks that everyone knows. It's a rare gem.
