Douche Froide is an association created in 2002. Our interests lie in music, literature and graphic arts. We began by producing fanzines and we continue working on books, all accompanied with a CD, such as "Aux Limites du Son" published by La Volte. We have worked with many bands, writers and graphic designers for these releases.
Since 2003, Douche Froide is a radio show. You can listen to it live on Canal Sud on Mondays every fortnight from 10.30 pm to 1.30 am: http://www.canalsud.net (go to the broadcasting section).
It offers interviews, musical readings, live sessions, debates, mixes, news, in a weird, dark, evocative and melancholy atmosphere close to the post-industrial and minimalist experimental music styles.
Douche Froide also organizes events, concerts, meetings, festivals.
In the blog section, you will find some of the interviews we had over the years: Laibach, Nouvelles Lectures Cosmopolites, Lydia Lunch, Mark Stewart, Rick Bass, Jarboe, Drahomira Song Orchestra, Die Weisse Rose, Norscq, Eugene Chadbourne, Gae Bolg, Front 242, Jean-Pierre Vernay, Trisomie 21, Piano Magic, Andrew King, Collection D'Arnell-Andréa, Arnica, Hermann Kopp, Bruce LaBruce, Gustave Kervern, Clair Obscur, Aloof Proof, Nocturnal Emissions, Vox Populi!, Univers Zéro, Naevus, Karl Biscuit, Absolute Body Control, Horologium, Ghédalia Tazartès, Error, Nihiltronix, Geins't Naït and many others.
In the events section, you will find the programmes of our next radio shows.

ARABROT (Norvège), les demi-dieux de la noisecore qui tache (concert au Mans le 17 novembre quand même aussi)... des gars qui jouent gras et sale comme les MELVINS et ZENI GEVA, avec un côté black à la DARKTHRONE... Ces gars sont déjantés (ceux qui les ont déjà vus savent que c'est un concert à ne louper sous aucun prétexte!) A noter, ils ont enregistré avec Steve ALBINI, et avec BILLY ANDERSON (MELVINS (bis)).
Ils seront accompagnés de NUIT NOIRE (post black metal / faerical blasting punk – on ne les présente plus... et ce sera le grand retour de ce duo qui ne laisse personne indifférent) et GOAT RIVER (pour un stoner doom instrumental quelque part entre EARTH, ELECTRIC WIZARD et FU MANCHU – ici tout le monde est bassiste, batteur et guitariste, ok?).
