CRAIG SMITH SUNCEBEAT BOAT PARTY 20.06.2025

Not done one of these in a while, having recently stepped away from my residency in Edinburgh. Felt right to record one more before taking a breather and shifting focus.

On the hottest day of the year in the UK so far, here’s a mix of sun-drenched beauties to soundtrack it.

Catch you on the other side x

There’s a weight to vinyl you can’t measure.
Not grams, not BPM, something older. Something human.

Myself and Andrea Piacentini, we are two shadows etched deep into the city’s underground nights, and we return to the ritual: 2 x turntables, a crate of wax and the quiet defiance of not giving everything away. 

No algorithm, no easy Shazam. Only ears, only hearts, only the dancefloor.

In a world where every song is named before it even ends, there’s rebellion in anonymity.

The needle drops and you don’t know — you just feel. A bassline pulled from some forgotten pressing, a hi-hat that breathes dust, a vocal ghosting through the room.

These are records that live outside playlists, out of reach of search bars. They exist only in that moment, in that booth, under our hands.

It’s not nostalgia. It’s devotion. 

Records force you to listen. 
To care for it, to know its imperfections.

We aren’t just playing tracks, we are speaking in an old language few still remember. 

Every mix is unrepeatable, every transition a secret shared with those who showed up, who stayed late, who paid attention.

This isn’t music to be owned; it’s music to be witnessed.

A dive into "Hell Yeah Recordings" Italian label

AMK Passenger Resident following on from the best DJ in Scotland Domenic Cappello - the postman always delivers they say - certainly did on this occasion. SUBLIME. 

Allan McKenzie, aka AMK, proved once again why he’s one of Passenger’s most versatile and accomplished resident DJs. A true journeyman of the scene and master selector, he has the rare ability to warm up, close, and move fluidly through tempos in any setting. 

At the Passenger Dance Tent at the Back Doune the Rabbit Hole Festival, following the legendary Domenic Cappello was no small task but AMK didn’t just fill those big boots, he brought the whole shoe shop with him. 

His set radiated raw energy and unrelenting pressure, culminating in a breathtaking, melancholy track that at one point had myself and others in complete awe.

It was an unforgettable performance, cementing his reputation as one of the best, and we’ll be back for more at next year’s festival, 17–19 July.

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, chronicling a moment when the resting heart rate of dance floors plunged lower than potentially any comparable point in the 21st century. A masterclass, and 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 a racecar.

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)

Here is part of my set from the Old Bridge Inn summer party in August  2018..good wee night..100% vinyl..tunes are a selection of house, disco-electro and rave

Old Bridge Inn Summer Party Aug 18 - Andy Piacentini

Half disco 7 inch and half caffe' corretto, when it comes to leftfield disco sets , golden era deep house and killer programming Andy knows his onions.  A child hood spent listening to Talking Heads, proper 80s UK Indy-pop blended somewhat chaotically with a healthy dose of  Mediterranean sunshine via the sounds of  Adriano Celentano and Pino Daniele, Andy’s formative years covered wide musical bases. 

Misspent teen years in the early 90s, and an insatiable vinyl addiction for underground hip hop, NY house and UK rave records over this period matured into a love of underground disco funk in the late 90s and a vast collection of disco records, leading to present day dj sets which are , without fail, an eclectic selection of  quality underground dance music and wildly varying tempos.  Andy has shared billing with Todd Terje, Greg Wilson, Andy Smith, Phil Mison, The Revenge, Mark E and Balearic Mike and Djed many times at long running disco night Melting Pot in his current home Glasgow.  He has held residencies in Glasgow and London and in these locked-down times can be found on his own show on Radio Magnetic ‘run4cover’ (www.mixcloud.com/radio-magnetic).
