Earthy, physical rhythms meet experimental sonics on SonarMix 037, which moves from hyperlocal strains of baile funk to hyperreal techno. Galician artist Akazie channels "anger, tenderness, closeness and distance" on a recording made " at a time of great global anger and impotence."

"I started in the clubs, and that's where my heart is." The British singer-songwriter and RA's newest cover star talks about her new album, BRAT, live from AVA London.

This week's Exchange is with Resident Advisor's latest cover star: Charli xcx. The British singer-songwriter has garnered a reputation as one of the most unpredictable and boundary-pushing pop artists of her generation, collaborating with contemporaries like A. G. Cook, Yaeji and the late SOPHIE. And she's now on the heels of her most recent album, BRAT, which came out in June and has already been lauded as one of the best albums of the year.

In this conversation recorded live at AVA London with journalist Chal Ravens, Charli xcx dives into the making of the album. She calls it a club record—that, she says, is "where her heart is." After posting songs on MySpace around 2008, she was asked to DJ at warehouse parties when she was still in her teens. She felt alive in that space, she remembers, doing crazy, embarrassing things.

Now in a different chapter of her life and career, she contemplates her desire to make challenging music that still appeals to a broad audience. It's a pendulum that swings radically in both ways, and she finds herself reinventing herself within the pop space and navigating that tension again and again. Listen to the episode in full.

For us, Tet is getting gayer by the year, and now we’ve got Britney Spears’ snake (or python?) lined up for 2025. Can you imagine?!🐍 To celebrate, we’re welcoming a new friend who’s been weaving his way deeper into Vietnam’s queer scene with every visit: Sam PV. She’s been busy! From Savage (Hanoi) to Kockiri (Seoul) to (Re)treat Festival (Vietnam), Sam’s definitely been making plenty of friends in our corner of the globe. Known for his iconic Pumping Velvet parties in London since 2018, we’re thrilled to share a little of that sparkle to you. About his mix, Sam says something about edging… and honestly, it is the fantasy. Enjoy! 🎶🍌💦

“For this mix I wanted to create an hour of dancing music for queers of all persuasions that also provides the kind of enjoyable home listening experience that makes you wish you were out dancing. The mix is all about balance and restraint, coursing with sex, pop and c***y nrg, while never becoming outright banging. A bit like the aural equivalent of edging ;-)” - Sam
