What and who is A Darker Wave?
We are a duo (jacki-e & p-mac) who present A Darker Wave every week only on NLive Radio, Circl8 Radio, Echo Radio & Chill Lover Radio. We put the show together in our home studio. The show is streamed worldwide on the internet. Each show is posted on our Soundcloud, Mixcloud, Hearthis.at, Podbean and You Tube pages once it has been streamed and presents the best in new techno releases.
We also play gigs as A Darker Wave and we have played at events in Germany and all over the UK.
The music we play is techno, tech house, deep house and anything else we like enough to include in the show.
Each show is 2 hours long. In the first hour we go into the mix with our featured EP of the week and the best of the new releases.
In the second hour we invite new and upcoming DJs to come onto the show and do a guest mix.

Why are you called A Darker Wave?
Dark Wave was first used in the 1980s to describe a dark and melancholy variant of new wave and post-punk music and was first applied to UK musicians such as Bauhaus, Joy Division, Sisters of Mercy, Cocteau Twins, The Cure, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Depeche Mode and Anne Clark. It was also used to describe artists who combined music with performance art, such as Throbbing Gristle and Cabaret Voltaire, who challenged and explored the darker and obsessive sides of the human condition.

A lot of techno takes its spirit and ethos from this music, Listen to Throbbing Gristle or Cabaret Voltaire and you can hear the industrial sounds which are a staple of techno music today.

Techno is the outsider of electronic dance music, the punk of today's modern music scene. As Dave Clarke said in an interview with Mixmag, " Techno is edgy. Techno will challenge you......it's the real dark art."

Our radio show, in presenting the best in underground techno and deep house music, and in giving an opportunity for new, up and coming DJ's and producers, is providing an outlet for new techno, which is best described as being the new wave of modern dance music.

Not just a new wave, but with it's incessant bass rumblings, synthesiser drones, pounding drums, melodic top notes and eerie, distorted vocal samples, techno, in all its forms, is a backdrop to and a critique of our post-industrial, consumerist society, one in which our actions are observed 24/7, our democratic freedoms are threatened by our very own governments and our rights to do, think and act as we please are under ever increasing scrutiny. Techno really is A Darker Wave.

When we were listening to music in the 60’s and 70’s, before the electronic tentacles of technology infiltrated the world, we often thought, whilst listening to the likes of Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, King Crimson, Frank Zappa, Hawkwind, Captain Beefhart, New York Dolls and Roxy Music, where would music go to in the future? It could never be what was being portrayed in the science fiction movies of the time. Now we know. It can be anything. When we have a recording studio in our own home which is more powerful and versatile than anything available back then, we now know music can be anything and go anywhere. It is only the spark of our imaginations, or lack of it, that holds us back. On our laptop computers we have the capabilities that many artists back then would have given their right arms for. It’s for the uniqueness of the artist to express themselves to be able to stand out from the deluge of music available. Finding those gems is the modern day equivalent of crate digging and when you do, it makes it all worthwhile. Long live music!!!!

Supporting the underground.  Owner of DeepDownDirty.

Born and raised in Montreal,Canada, F5(Frank V.) was exposed to music at a very young age through his family as they would perform at family events or personal gatherings. At the round age of 8 years you would often see him dance at his aunt's diner when visiting, often asking his cousin to put his favorite song on the jukebox, at that time "Take On Me" by A-Ha being the track of choice.   

   The energy of the 80's clearly had a positive musical effect on this young lad, with this in mind his parents bought him his first keyboard to allow more musical creativity to flow, it wasn't long after he wanted a set of drums, and at the age of 15, after promising and following through with good grades he got his first set. This boy had rhythm, the beat was clearly coursing through his veins, music was a part of him, it didn't matter the genre, it was at this time he became transfixed watching old school DJ’s scratching and mixing VINYL RECORDS and felt the irresistible call to be that person behind the decks making strangers dance, and thus began his love affair with DJing and creating a frenzy on the dance floor. Like most DJs F5 started with the the TAPE mix, opening the door the house parties, local gigs, weddings and corporate events, but he wanted more, the underground.

   Due to the creativity that was strongly present, F5 wanted to be different like may DJs he looked up to at the time and still does,from varying genres, DJ's from the likes of, Armand van Helden, Frankie Knuckles, Lil Louis, Josh Wink, Serious Danger, Sneaker Pinps, to  DJ Tiesto, Arman Van Buren, Ferry Corsten, Chris Liebing, Mojado ft Mr Sam,  just to name a few 

   With what could only be described as a natural born music empathy, F5 can feel what any crowd needs before they do and in turn delivers perfectly tailored beats that feed the soul and unite all who are listening to fall under his spell,  playing music in front of crowds for over 25 years, now heating up the dance floor with his funky, deep tech with a side order of rumbling bass lines from his enigmatic techno. The magic didn't end there, the call to produce his own sound to share with the world was strong, always a creative cat with his mixes, it was time to produce his own originals. It was only natural that the next step was to get into the studio and let his innate creativity flow.

    The creator in him expresses and emerges in many styles, genres and intensities Because of the many styles of music he was exposed to F5s work flow can vary from trip hop to Trance to Drum&Bass to dark sultry techno and even ambient with the common denominator being good music. 

     With Techno now on the forefront of his musical journey through life he hopes to continue to put as many smiles on as many faces he can on our beautiful planet. he lovingly encourages you to come for the ride, and LIVE LOVE and DANCE like there is no tomorrow.
