"There's a joy I'm trying to depict in my artwork." The American DJ and producer discusses her latest painting exhibition, the power of poetry and exploring queer fantasy in visual art.

Today, Berlin-via-New York multidisciplinary artist Juliana Huxtable might be best known for her DJing and dance floor productions. She's the co-founder of the party Shock Value and a regular at Berghain, Herrensauna, Basement and more clubs and festivals around the world. But she's equally prolific in the worlds of poetry and visual art, and in her first appearance on the RA Exchange, she talks to senior producer Chloe Lula about her multimedia painting exhibition, -USSYPHILIA, which is on display through the beginning of January. A champion of queer and trans theory, Huxtable uses collage, painting and poetry to explore themes around identity anarchy and sexuality throughout the exhibition. While the collection is serious and somewhat academic, it's also playful, diving deep into fantasy, psychedelia and allusions to soft porn.

These days, Huxtable enjoys dabbling in other kinds of art as well. In her interview, she talks about her longtime love of performance art, which she says is ghettoized in the art world context, usually relegated to awkward programming add-ons in gallery exhibitions. Her band Tongue In The Mind is  shaking off the performance art stigma and bringing it into the club with their forthcoming EP on PAN, Pretty Canary, out in late 2023. 

To hear about how she keeps on top of parallel creative practices, her thoughts on writing, experiences with psychedelics and more, listen to the episode in full.

Pennsylvania's own @lu2k sounds everything & nothing like his US or Drumming roots with an hour of actual club music for LFE. His origins in Hardcore mean percussion & genre-based clichés follow his every move in the electronic world; this mix shows the Paris-based producer and DJ channelling the energy of a LU2K club set; full of life, deep cuts & fun. Dragging you down the rabbit hole and then headfirst into some wilder sounds; Lu ditches labels and buzzwords doing what he always does at club shows worldwide; harnessing the energy of a room and releasing it through thoughtful & effective selection.

Paco Weggmann joins the roster at Catwash Records with a debut original four track release EP ‘House 99’ through DJ W!LD’s underground label on 24th June 2013.  The EP fuses old school vocal samples with skipping jack drum grooves and bumping bass.  Lead track ‘House99’  captures this style perfectly with a hypnotic underground drum rhythms and looped up vocals. ‘Be As One’ takes a well known vocal line and treats it to a soulful arrangement with summer vibes throughout. The rolling bass of ‘Still Trippin’ with it’s chopped up groove pure raw vibe is a sure fire dancefloor and pool party favourite. ‘Re Inspirat’ co-written with Vali Dobrogeanu provides an alternative direction with a psychedelic groove and beat that will tear up back-rooms around the world, very deep and dark.
