    In this episode of The DJ Force X Podcast, Mortiis joins me to take a deep dive into Ghosts of Europa, his upcoming electronic‑rock opus and one of the most ambitious records of his career. We explore the creative liberation behind the album, and the long evolution of its sound into something darker, more expansive, and unmistakably Mortiis. Mortiis breaks down the new single “Ghosts of Europa,” the emotional landscape that shaped the record, and the sonic world‑building that defines this new era. We round things out with a look at the upcoming USA tour — what fans can expect from the shows,. #Mortiis #GhostsOfEuropa #MortiisInterview #ElectronicRock #IndustrialMusic #DungeonSynth #DarkAmbient #NewAlbum2026 #MusicPodcast #DJForceX #ProphecyProductions #USATour2026 #ElectronicMusic #IndustrialRock #DarkMusic #AlbumDeepDive #PodcastInterview

    Truckfighters | Masterflow, Desertfest & The Gorgon | DJ Force X Podcast Ep 335

    Today I’m joined by Mr Dango from Truckfighters — the Swedish fuzz legends back with a brand‑new single, The Gorgon, and gearing up to drop their new album Masterflow on April 10th. Massive riffs, hypnotic grooves, and over two decades of pure fuzz‑driven chaos. We’re diving into the new record, the return of that classic Truckfighters energy, and what fans can expect when they hit Desertfest this May.” In this episode, Dango opens up about the creative spark behind Masterflow, how the band continues to evolve while staying true to their unmistakable fuzz‑driven identity, and what it feels like gearing up for a huge Euro tour after more than 20 years in the game. We also get into the impact of Nirvana’s Nevermind on Dango’s musical DNA — from the moment it hit him as a young listener to how that raw, unfiltered energy still shapes the way he writes, plays, and approaches the stage today. #Truckfighters#TheGorgon#Masterflow#FuzzRock#DJForceXPodcast
