As part of RA2122, our ongoing celebration of 21 years of club culture, we'll be featuring some of our favourite DJs from around the world, highlighting the parties or clubs most important to their lives in dance music. First up we have Tama Sumo and Lakuti, both residents at Berlin's Panorama Bar, the house-focused room upstairs at Berghain. Panorama Bar has played host to thousands—if not millions—of people's most formative dance floor experiences, with an unparalleled vibe, near-perfect sound and window blinds that have taken their own place in dance music mythology. 

The duo's mix highlights the style that Tama Sumo and Lakuti have brought to the club and represents its anything-goes energy, mixing tracks from iconoclasts like Hieroglyphic Being (including one of his best-ever tracks) in with old-school favorites from Reel By Real, Larry Heard and even Ministry, moving from house to industrial to disco without batting an eyelid. Tama Sumo and Lakuti's loose but impeccable flow ties together house music history with a deep love and knowledge of all genres and, perhaps most importantly, the desire and know-how to just make people dance. We couldn't be more thrilled to feature Tama Sumo and Lakuti for the first mix in our birthday series, and we hope that you enjoy it as much as we do.

This is a booth recording of Huck playing the headline slot of the September 2015 edition of Midwest Fresh held at MINT Gallery in Columbus, OH.  Midwest Fresh was a series of warehouse parties thrown by a changing cast of Columbus DJ's and promoters including Jed Fenton, Kevin Brugger, Tony Fairchild, Alexi Vlaar, Brian Cheng, Titonton Duvante and Mike Amerine.  It ran from August 2014 - October 2019.

This mix is shared publicly for the first time as part of a series of interviews paying tribute to Huck and his legacy.  The first edition of this multi-part tribute will be published December, 7 2022 at https://presstest.substack.com/.

Note: The sound can be a little hot in the beginning but things level out after a bit.

"In this mix there’s music that was inspirational for the album, both sonically and spiritually. It also got some of the album itself, an old favorite or two, and some songs that have been taking up space in my playlists but I never quite seem to be in the right moment to play them out during my DJ sets lately. I recorded this one over the course of two afternoons at home on the mountain." @avalonemerson

I haven't posted a live DJ set for a long time - so here's one from this summer's Rural Festival held in the mountains not far from Nagano in Japan. It was my 2nd year at the festival, and I had an amazing time playing from 2.30-5am, with my set starting in pitch black and ending with the sun emerging for the last moments of the set. Big shouts to all the crowd and of course the organisers for having me back!

As another (rather unusual) year comes to an end, we close off our 2020 Mix Series with a sensational hour-long recording from one of the UK’s finest electronic music producers - Daniel Avery.

Daniel’s mix, however, is far from the ordinary. We'll let him explain in his own words below.

"The act of DJing feels like it exists on another planet at the moment but, unemployment aside, I feel fortunate to have closed my eyes this year,” Avery explains. “I’ve found a real solace in my metal box down by the water, the doors of which seemed to have been locked from the outside. In a good way. It’s all meant that the pile of new music is bigger than ever and, when asked to make a mix for my favourite dance emporium Phonica, I had the opportunity to do something different. So, to round off the slow-motion blur of 2020, here is a mixtape made up of new and exclusive stuff: unheard demos, versions, live jams and studio experiments. Most of it was made for the club. Hope you enjoy and please pass it around. I’ll see you on the other side very soon. DA xxx”
