The Mauscast (electronic music: Dark electro, gothic, EBM, industrial, synthpop, post-punk, electropop)
Curated from the dimly lit corners of the electronic underground, The Mauscast is a monthly transmission from DJ Maus. Each episode is a journey through the shadows of the dancefloor, blending the pulsating rhythms of dark electro and EBM with the melancholic melodies of synthpop and post-punk. You might hear the cold, precise beats of classic industrial one moment, followed by the shimmering, nostalgic ache of a darkwave track the next. This podcast reflects Maus's deep roots in the scene, not just as a selector but as a cultivator of community. His experience launching club nights like Simply Synthpop and the Strangelove events informs these mixes; there's a tangible sense of a narrative built for a night out, even if you're listening alone. Since 2012, his role with the Communion After Dark collective has further honed an ear for what moves a crowd in those late hours. The result is a cohesive yet unpredictable set where newer electropop and nu-goth sounds naturally converse with foundational industrial and gothic textures. It's less a simple playlist and more an invitation into a specific sonic world-one built on decades of passion and participation. For those who find their rhythm in the darker shades of electronic music, this podcast serves as both a discovery channel and a familiar, resonant home.
