Raphael Rodriguez is a cultural producer whose work spans events, festivals, and institutions across physical spaces and recorded mediums. Building on this cross-disciplinary engagement, he co-founded Danse Noire in 2013, a collective platform for exploratory, music-related works, and later managed the label PAN between 2018 and 2022. Here he shares some favorites covering Franco-Senegalese mythopop, anti-format audio propaganda, Welsh-tongue avant goth-folk, introspective lyrical vignettes, and tantric death invocations from the Himalayan void.
