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)

Aoki Takamasaは、2001年初頭に自身にとってのファースト･アルバム『SILICOM』をリリースして以来、LIVE、DJ、楽曲制作を中心に国際的な活動を続けている。2004年からはヨーロッパに拠点を置き、2011年に帰国。国内外のアーティストのremix、プロデュース、ミキシングも担当。Bun／Fumitake TamuraとのユニットNeutralでの活動も進行中。写真家としても活動している。

DJ SHIBATAは90年代半ばにDJ活動を開始。NYスタイルの王道にのめり込むが、あらゆる音楽・スタイル・価値観を吸収し、自分の感覚でそれらをフロアに落とし込むことに意味を見い出す。現在はディープで先鋭的なダンスミュージックのパーティー”探心音”を渋谷KOARAで10年以上に渡り開催し、ハウス、テクノ、ブレイクビーツからディスコ、ファンクまでを一貫性のあるグルーヴで紡いでいる。

2000年頃のレイヴやパーティーを体験し衝撃を受けてきたMu Rakiは、10年に及ぶ東京でのDJを経て、2015年にベルリンへ渡る。ディープな音楽体験の中でより実験的なミニマル・ハウスに傾倒してゆく。修行の旅から帰国後の2019年7月には、VisionquestのShaun Reevesを招き、自身のパーティー“inipi”をVENTで開催した。
