MPX is yet another project from Geoff Kirkwood, the creative mind behind Man Power, Bed Wetter and MEMEME. This alias focuses on high octane, club-focused and driving sounds. We had an in-depth chat with the man of the hour over on our new website: www.ape-x.club 

Kirkwood has touched down in every significant club across the globe, spinning tracks in Berghain, Topazdeluxe and Saule (too only name a few). We can see his armoury of influences grow deeper year by year, as he undertakes new projects, each offering us an insight into his vast musical world. 2021 brings an exciting turn for MPX as he prepares for a release on Kneading Pains, keep an eye out for that one. 

This is a person who consistently reinvents and re-contextualizes what it means to be an “artist”, we’re happy to host him as our 12th APECAST guest. Check out our full interview with him at our new website ape-x.club.

Finally got round to making this version of "I'm not in love" that's been rattling around my head for years. Big Boys should cry.

OFF DAY reached out to us with a cryptic message on Instagram, and we were instantly hooked on his genre-bending, ear-pleasing EP: DAY ONE, which dropped on Feb 28th. 

Nothing about it is standard—not the artist’s communication, the 20-minute mixtape-style format, or the surprising juxtaposition of genres (Drum & Bass, Jersey Club, Hip-Hop, Techno...).

Today, OFF DAY plays DAY ONE along with 40 minutes (!) of unreleased original music.

Andrew Weatherall's first official posthumous mix. The only b2b DJ Harvey ever agreed to. Six hours at Trouw. This one's special.

When mulling which direction to go in for RA's 1000th mix celebrations, many options came to mind. Some shadowy character 2-stepping around the fringe of our collective consciousness? An impossible-level IDM icon?

All tempting. But, ultimately, we are a DJ-forward publication and this is a DJ mix series. It felt truer to the history of the RA Podcast to release deep vault material from a time when the world of niche records felt different, tighter, more discrete.

The fourth-longest mix in the series' history is an unrepeatable marathon set recorded in 2012 at a superclub that no longer exists. 2012, incidentally, is farther away from 2025 than 2012 was from 2000... if we have to clock it, so do you.

It's the coming together of one British icon who passed away in 2020, and another whose time on the road has scaled back considerably as of late. DJ Harvey agreed to exactly one b2b set in his life: this one, with Andrew Weatherall.

The night took place at Trouw, an Amsterdam club already considered legendary before it shuttered its doors in the opening hours of 2015, as part of an RA series anchored around start-to-close combinations. Harvey was at the peak of an irresistible career second act, which dovetailed with a disco revival that dominated clubs for years. Weatherall, with infinite brownie points stockpiled from the '90s, remained everyone's favourite debonair psychonaut. 

What follows is 385 scintillating minutes of arpeggiated chug and slow-cresting climaxes: a moment when the resting heart rate of dance floors plunged lower than any comparable point in the 21st century. A masterclass, entirely self-contained in audio form.

If you've got time to spare, a fun side game is sussing out who plays what. A disco-dub cover of Echo & the Bunnymen? Smart money's on Weatherall. Exuberant EQ'ing of The Isley Brothers? Gotta be Harvey. As for the low 'n slow, lightly spangled house that was all the rage in the early 2010s (think Maxxi Soundsystem, Disco Bloodbath, Rub & Tug, C.O.M.B.I. and Full Pupp), it's anyone's guess. 127 BPM feels practically like an F1 car.

When we kicked off our RA.1000 campaign, we outlined a few goals: tick off a handful of long-awaited dream guests, honour architects who shaped the world around us and deliver recordings you truly can't hear anywhere else. Full send.

DJing and the mythmaking around it has undergone a quantum leap since 2012, let alone 2006, 1996 or 1989. For those of us who were kicking around in the former, there's a creeping melancholy that our prime is fast becoming a matter of historical record. The killing moon really did come too soon. 

Where will electronic music, DJ sets or any of this be in 2044? Hard to say. Best not to overthink that one. Instead, we want to say thanks to all contributors on the series so far. Now enjoy luxuriating in the company of two of the greatest to ever do it, together, for the first and last time.⁠ – Gabriel Szatan (Editor, RA)
