Sekdek Podcast

by Brice Frillici

The Sekdek podcast offers a distinctive blend of elements - from raw field recordings and intimate, unscripted moments to thoughtful songs and discussions. This multimedia journey captures the spirit of spontaneous artistic expression, primarily through a LO-FI DIY lens and with a commitment to Black Metal’s raw production values. Occasionally, this setup provides an ASMR experience. The podcast navigates a vast landscape of topics and styles, providing a deep, philosophical dive into the artistic process. It not only serves as a historical archive and creative outlet but also revives and analyzes a series of similar, now-defunct works from circa 2012. Ideal for those in art, philosophy, music, and artificial intelligence.

Episodes

  1. Leave Britney Alone!

    A long, rambling critique of a fellow podcaster becomes something much larger: a meditation on conspiracy theories about conspiracy theories, the seductions of darker interpretations, and the overly critical lenses that can mistake suspicion for insight. Along the way, the episode examines how...

  2. Pee Pee & Tee Tee

    A commute-to-work podcast. A depressing and kinda bitter rant on my way to work turns into a stupid and silly ramble about my difficult job and ultimately showcases my state of mind while heading to work very early in the morning. I like to capitalize on drive time and record pods, so I yap about...

  3. Brice Frillici Sings Cover Songs V

    Back again, testing out some new, supposedly “final” raw versions from Song Belongs to Room. When I say final—hell no, it ain’t over. I’ve still got a few others on deck: some Faith No More, some Metallica, The Neville Brothers, Atari Teenage Riot, Misfits, Fugazi, Benjamin Clementine—all coming...

  4. Black Metal Bouncers 2012

    A black metal overview session with my bouncer co-worker from a bar we both worked at. He was like a skinhead gutter punk hardcore type, but a black metal version. And I was a non-skinhead redneck version of gutter punk and hardcore, but in a much more original and not easily describable way.…

    more
  5. Alpha Dog 4000

    This one follows no beaten path. A wildling song study melting into rant, riffage, ramble, vision quest, daydream, warble, and eventually some kind of accidental launch into deep space. I am not entirely sure where it starts, where it ends, or what shape it becomes along the way. But it exists.

  6. Brice Frillici Sings Cover Songs IV

    Episode four of Song Belongs to Room meanders the collection yet again, where familiar songs become unfamiliar again. Hell no, it ain’t over. Join Brice Frillici for another free-flowing sesh of music, tall tales, observatory mayhem, and creative rabbit pods as he unpacks and squeezes out the...

  7. Brice Frillici Sings Cover Songs III

    In this third installment of Song Belongs to Room, Brice Frillici props the studio door open, exploring the strange intersection where performance, production, memory, and experimentation collide. Each cover song becomes a jumping-off point into conversations about songwriting, recording...

  8. Brice Frillici Sings Cover Songs II

    Welcome back to Song Belongs to Room, the continuing mini-series where Brice Frillici dives headfirst into his sparkly collection of 50+ cover songs and all the strange places they lead. Join Brice as he wilds out and riffs—sometimes randomly, sometimes not—about the songs, their making, the...

  9. Brice Frillici Sings Cover Songs I

    Join Brice Frillici for a loose, behind-the-scenes tour through Song Belongs to Room, an ongoing collection of more than 50 reimagined cover songs spanning indie rock, classic rock, folk, metal, pop, post-punk, experimental music, and everything in between. Along the way, Brice shares stories...

  10. I lived in a Mexican Cholo trap house

    Long story, but it happened. A highly personal account of living with Mexican gangsters for a short spell in a trap house. Mission District, San Francisco. 1997–2002. A highly charged, dangerous, sometimes very lethal environment. I walk through what it actually felt like—day to day, room to…

  11. Good vs Evil Part II

    Part II goes deeper into the darker side of the spectrum—what people label as evil, how it gets packaged, and how constant exposure shapes perception. We look at streaming culture as a delivery system: endless access, algorithmic surfacing, and how tone, pacing, and repetition normalize…

    more
  12. Good vs Evil Part I aka Part III of the Yaksman

    This pod wonders how good and evil move through art, film, and sound, and how repetition reshapes sensitivity over time. The conversation tracks desensitization as a real process: exposure builds tolerance, shifts thresholds, and changes how images and ideas register in the body. In our clanky...

  13. Blood Soaked Tiger

    A full walkthrough of 2025 Brice Frillici album When The Gods —track by track, front to back. I talk through each piece as it comes up: where it came from, how it was built, what’s happening sonically, and how it fits into the larger arc of the album. Guitar tones, structure, vocal choices,...

  14. AI Musician Debate

    Two and a half hours of direct, lived perspective on AI music from inside an active catalog—spoken by someone releasing albums across analog recording, lo-fi processes, and AI generation at the same time. I lay out my own methodology in detail: how I approach tools like Suno and Udio, how I…

  15. Halloween Sucks (But Every Day Is Halloween)

    Halloween Sucks (But Every Day Is Halloween) He goes off the rails in this unfiltered podcast episode, announcing not one, not two, but three new albums dropping soon—each stranger and darker than the last. From the so-called “darkest album ever recorded” (Save the Gods) to a Viking-stoner-metal...

  16. Cheap Magic - The Brice Frillici Supernova I

    Cheap Magic is a long-form dive into the underground world of Brice Frillici guy. This podcast is mega liner notes—part casual monologue, part behind-the-scenes journal. Brice opens up the vault on upcoming albums, art books, and projects, weaving stories around their creation and what they mean....

  17. Samorozpadu Zamysleni - My Country Album Description

    [Intro music fades in—lo-fi guitar, tape hiss, maybe a passing train in the distance, a rooster, and a barking dog, and someone yelling at it to shut up] Welcome to Samorozpadu Zamysleni, the official podcast companion to my latest country album, recorded with Milarepo Man on instrumental…

  18. Void Denizen - The Ungoogleable Michaelangelo

    Brought to you in part by the Tacoma Psychedelic Society....NOT!!!! A barrage, a download, a spontaneous offering of questions, references, irreverence, reverence, and psychic residue. Think of it less as a formal outline and more like a napkin sketch of a shared neural storm. I wrote this letter...

  19. Pro Se Litigant

    Today’s episode cracks open my latest art exhibit, now live on sekdek.com — a photographic series titled Sekdek Legal. This body of work is my unflinching attempt to dissect the legal caste system through the medium of portraiture, drawing deeply from the sterile psychosis of Bret Easton Ellis’s...

  20. The Yaksman II

    The Yaksman II This one goes even deeper down the wormhole—a whopper, way more songs, more spontaneous tangents, more dickness, and some vitriol for breakfast. And some real-time editing critique as I try to figure out what the hell I’m doing. The mood swings continue—humor, seriousness, more…

    more
  21. The Yaksman I

    The Yaksman I This one’s a vibrant jab—part funny riff, part full-on rant tear—recorded mid-commute while I chat with myself. On other tracks, I strum around on my acoustic and recall some songs from back in 2012, when the world was on the brink of collapse. (Spoiler: we saved it. Or maybe Cern...

  22. Amanita Smurfs, The Milarepo Man Band and the Origins of Geppetto

    Welcome to Muscamol. We chat Smurfs, my new band Milarepo Man, and the origins of my AI Therapist, what it means to be musically monogamous vs. free to explore all genres and methods, about growing up into the mind controlled hypnotized cult matrix normalcy, staying youthful with your vision...

  23. Psychastic Obfuscation

    An exploration into the seeming value of tripping. In this episode, we document live experiences and peer up and down the veil—into moments of oblivion, and back again. Forgotten and newly discovered notes from the field. As CERN changed the universe forever back in 2012, we/I/am/is marched into...

    Under the Floorboards: Live with Tina (aka The Deletist) This one was for my old podcast, Rooney’s Lodgecast. This episode captures a wild night in Chris “Skullcaster”’s old bedroom at Bleakhaus, Mission Street, SF—circa 2010. Me and Tina (aka The Deletist) recorded live noise music...

  25. Glommed On Meat Body Duality

    In this unfiltered spiralling migget, I spiral through identity, ego, simulation theory, and the strange theater of human costume-wearing. From sports jerseys to leather straps to the voice we choose to speak in—this episode explores how we unknowingly play roles, and what it means to wake up to...

  26. Authenticity Now

    Recorded in the hush of an early rainy PNW morning commute—windshield wipers steady, traffic crawling—I riff on the elusive hunt for authenticity in a world that’s mostly smoke and mirrors. It’s a wandering drive through the fog of identity, AI illusions, soul signals, and lo-fi praise songs for...

  27. Shannon Knows

    Something close to the veil. This podcast is a wild and far-out exploration of heaven, hell, and middles in between—because why not start with the big questions? My X gf sure did. And we break that down here just a bit for fairness. As for Shannon, I was on my way out into the woods to capture…

  30. Self Deprecation Emancipation

    I went wild and free. The wind caught me at an angle, and I was told to bang on about something and nothing at all. What came today was a gift and an emancipation from the witch's (small case) ritual of seizing upon self-depreciation negatively. Not that I planned any of this. But the thought...

  31. Mythical Conversation

    Beneath a sky that hadn’t decided whether to unveil the moon or a thousand stars, a conversation unfolded—a dialogue that rearranged the cosmos.

  33. Homer My Odyssey

    "Homer My Odyssey," is an unplanned spoken word journey recorded in my van while camping in the woods. Not typically a performer in this manner, but armed with a notebook, I read randomly selected lyrics that, as fate would have it, came together to sound as though they were meant to be. This...

  34. Epic Nutball Book Promo Hike Rant

    This is me in the woods riffing about my new book, Beyond the Valley: Tracing the Arc of Psychedelic Therapeutics. Freeform word jazz? Whatever caught hold of me kept its grip for about 45 minutes and did not let go. I got silly and had fun making fake commercials. Imagine that, I recorded it and...
