For edition 69 of our guest mix series, we welcome once again London-based record collector Ilan (Night City Life). A true Italo enthusiast, Ilan curated Night City Life (@spacetalkmusic), one of our favourite compilations of 2019. Night City Life II will be dropping this summer (and we can’t wait 🎷)

As a DJ his selections are always rich with nostalgia and emotion, taking us on a journey through time and sound. Here is a recording of his vinyl-only set from Flow Festival last year; an Italo-tinged expedition in the Helsinki sunshine.

Orañjez ~ @radiokerne ~ Sonerezhioù kurius ha breizhat.

Replay du 26 Janvier 2025.

Première de 2025 pour Orañjez.
Pour l’occasion, je mets de côté les esthétiques musicales habituelles au profit d’une sélection plus hivernale et nocturne : ambient, downtempo, deep dubby house, blissed-out beats, trancy vibes et 90’s intelligent drum’n’bass.

C’est le genre de bande-son qui m’accompagne inlassablement en hiver, que ce soit pour avaler des kilomètres de bitume dans la Polo ou pour travailler tard le soir. 🌠

Distro eo Orañjez war Radio Kerne.
Disul, e kinnigan deoc'h un dra disheñvel. Un abadenn gant sonennoù goañv, melkonius, anvet Hanternoz.

Heading up the sixth release on the prolific Bizarre Trax vinyl label is co-founder of the brand, Jhobei with his “Between Dreams & Delirium” EP. His distinct and animated sound shines bright from beginning to end as he showcases a multitude of vibes spread across five innovative cuts — the A-side providing a more serious and heady insight to his sought after repertoire, then on the flip you are served up an array of deep delicacies before rounding off the body of work in true Bizarre Trax fashion a playful, funk-fuelled explosion, nodding towards those festival moments we are all dreaming of this winter.

CC:DISCO! BARBARELLAS CROATIA 2025

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)

For its third release, Labyrinth Music was able to sign Dave Brody. This under-the-radar producer has gained much respect in the national as well as international music scene. He is known for meticulously crafting his compositions into a groove driven, old school sound.  Dave Brody's original mix of "Eclipse" starts with a solid, jacking beat. The dreamy hi-hats create an up-lifting groove that matches those short but punchy lower frequencies perfectly. "Eclipse" includes a wide stereo spread br
