Deep Dive • Satanic Illuminati Music Industry (8/13) [Full Series On PATREON]
Mon Feb 02 2026
Hello Initiates, and welcome to Some Dare Call It Conspiracy. In this episode, we continue our Deep Dive into the Satanic Illuminati Music Industry conspiracy theory, a long-running narrative that claims popular music is controlled by secret elites using occult rituals, mind control, and hidden symbolism to manipulate artists and audiences.
Drawing on lived experience, research, and careful analysis, we trace where this theory comes from and why it continues to feel persuasive. We explore how older myths, moral panics, and recycled ideas are repackaged for new audiences, and how celebrity culture and alternative media ecosystems help keep the story alive.
This series is sparked by a wave of claims circulating in alternative media, including an interview on Ickonic that alleges secret rituals, MKULTRA-style programming, and Faustian bargains within the music industry. Rather than accepting these stories at face value, we use them as a starting point to examine the evidence that is claimed, the evidence that is missing, and how vague anecdotes are often mistaken for proof.
Over the course of thirteen episodes, we examine the origins of the myth, the figures who popularised it, the cultural references used as evidence, and the internal contradictions that cause the narrative to collapse under scrutiny.
Some Dare Call It Conspiracy is an investigative podcast hosted by Brent Lee and Neil Sanders, examining conspiracy culture from the inside out using lived experience, research, and a distinctly British sense of humour.
