DF n°91, Interview with DIE WEISSE ROSE, August 17th, 2009

This interview with Danish project Die Weisse Rose was directed in September 2008 in Barcelona, while the post-industrial band of Thomas Bojden was invited to perform at the Mediterranean Autumn Festival, but we had to wait a few months for the actual release of their first album, A Martyrium of White Roses, on Cold Meat Industry.

DF n°90, Interview with NORSCQ / THE GRIEF, August 3rd, 2009

The Grief was one of my favorite bands as a teenager after I bought the Huis Clos box in a French cult recordshop named L'Atomium early in 1988. I find their music still as inspiring and original today as it was at the time. Norscq was one of the members of this trio and he went on in the electronic music field after the split of the band in 1992. Apart from being a legend, he is also a very lovable guy full of humor. We met him at his apartment in Paris a few weeks before the release of his Gelatinosa Substantia album. We talked extensively about this coming release. At the end of the show we talked about Ettore Scola's Brutti, sporchi e cattivi, which was released on DVD in France, but the very end of the show is missing.
Norscq's portrait was made by our talented photographer MySS.
