A Darker Shade of Pagan is an ongoing weekly podcast and streaming Internet radio show that looks at modern music from a unique spiritual perspective. The Pagan perspective. Cutting a wide swathe through several musical genres, the show takes a look at themes relating to the occult, nature, myth, storytelling, old gods, mischievous spirits, our ancestors, and the nature of sacrifice.

The show is hosted by Jason Pitzl-Waters, a DJ for six years at WEFT community radio in Champaign, Illinois and a former music columnist for newWitch magazine. With a desire to find a deeper (and darker) musical tradition within the modern Pagan and occult communities, and a voracious appetite for vital threads of underground and independent music, the final product exists in a liminal state between these two impulses.
