*BCCO PRIDE 2025"

Queer rights are being rolled back—from book bans in the US to Pride bans in Hungary and anti-trans laws in the UK— it’s never been more urgent to be LOUD in our support. Show your support by reposting this set on SoundCloud, it’s just one click.

For Week 4 of our 5 weeks of Pride colabs, we are in our home town of Berlin with Buttons. Opening this special week is their resident @alisonswing with an all-vinyl mix.

Alison Swing is a DJ with a natural, honest style shaped by her roots in the LA warehouse scene. As co-founder of Dig Deeper, her parties and sets helped shape a decade of underground dance music in downtown Los Angeles. Since relocating to Berlin seven years ago, she’s become a regular at some of the city’s most exciting events, including her debut at Panorama Bar and a residency at Buttons. With a warm, uplifting sound and a keen ear for tracks that connect, she’s played over 30 countries, bringing her joyful take on club music to dance floors around the world.

This mix was recorded at her flat in Kreuzberg on a sunny morning before the summer heat kicked in. It features a bunch of new records picked up during recent crate-digging trips to Japan, Mexico and New York. It’s a playful, sassy selection, full of the quirky energy that reminds her of Buttons – and the freedom to be completely herself on the dance floor.

BCCO Mix Series 639: Alison Swing | BCCO x Buttons for PRIDE 2025

New mix by https://soundcloud.com/zaatar_music!

Marie aka Zaatar is a Belgian-Moroccan DJ and producer based in France. 

Her style blends electro, EBM, and new beat, weaving retro energies with North African influences into sets that are as unpredictable as they are intense.

As a producer, you could have noticed her on labels such as Dischi Autunno, Ritmo Fatale, "R.A.ND x Echocentric" on DC Salas last album where she co-produced a track or "Es Mi Momento", the new label of Zimmer.

Enjoy the mix!

"There are no new feelings, just new words." The Irish DJ talks about finding commonality in polarising times, CSD weekend and his podcast, Queerly Beloved.

In Berlin, the end of July means one thing: CSD, AKA Christopher Street Day. Commemorating New York's historic Stonewall Riots of 1969, this raucous weekender is a yearly celebration of the queer community and LGBTQIA+ rights.

The Irish DJ and podcast host Cormac is committed to documenting queer history. As host of Queerly Beloved, he conducts candid interviews with queer DJs and producers about the music industry, sexuality and mental health. But in this week's RA Exchange, Cormac is the one on the couch. 

He speaks about growing up gay in a conservative Irish town and navigating homophobic environments as a young person. He found solace in the dance music scene—which he said saved him—but he also found drugs and alcohol, which he used to manage his battle with depression and shame. Many years of substance abuse forced him to go sober and to prioritise his mental health. Cormac said he worried that quitting partying would end his sex life and music career. Instead, it was just the beginning. 

Over the course of more than two decades, Cormac has accumulated a loving legion of fans as a DJ, known for playing disco, 80s high NRG and flamboyant tunes that he describes as "poppers music." His label Polari—a reference to the secret language used by queer people throughout history—will release his new single, "Gone," on July 25th, with remixes from Ewan Pearson and Fred Terror. It's also raising funds for Berlin and London-based trans charities Casa Kua and Not A Phase. Listen to the episode in full. -Chloe Lula

Oups ! On croyait avoir terminé la saison mais on a reçu le mix de @Zanias qu'on attendait avec impatience... Alors c'est l'occasion de finir (cette fois-ci) la saison en beauté !
Originaire d'Australie, elle vit à Berlin depuis 2013. Ces dernières années, elle a collaboré avec certaines des figures les plus respectées de la musique électronique... Si ses sets live sont un spectacle et une catharsis menés par une performance vocale intense, dans ses sets DJ et hybrides (avec chant live), elle exprime cette force émotionnelle sous la forme de mélodies évocatrices, finement tissées de rythmes industriels et de lignes de basse EBM, visant à émouvoir à la fois le corps et l'esprit.
Auparavant connu comme la voix des groupes Linea Aspera (avec Ryan Ambridge) et Keluar (avec Sid Lamar de Schwefelgelb), Zanias est une artiste solo, DJ et producteur, co-fondateur du collectif berlinois Fleisch dont elle dirige désormais le label du même nom.
Son premier EP "To the Core" (2016, Noiztank) comprenait le titre "Follow the Body", devenu incontournable des dancefloors techno du monde entier. Fin 2018, elle a enchaîné avec son premier album, "Into the All" (Candela Rising), un voyage d'éveil psychospirituel hors du commun, fruit d'un long travail d'enregistrement et d'expérimentation. Après 4 LPs, elle s'oriente en 2025 vers un nouveau projet "Serpentskin", plus trance et rave et surtout orienté dancefloor.

About Tresor Berlin
At midnight, on March 13th 1991, a basement door opened at Leipziger Strasse 126, Berlin. Through this door, many passed, on their way to defining new terrains in electronic music. There they found a dance floor in the vaults of a closed-down department store, with a unique sound bound to dense fog, building night after night a history that was also a vision of the future.

This history has seen in Jeff Mills’ first sets on three turntables, Underground Resistance's first live appearances in Europe, grandiose Tresor Park parties, to various chapters of the Loveparade with Sven Väth in the 90s and since then countless generation-spanning parties. These moments represent the highlights of infinite personal clubbing experiences. It is the manifestation of the Berlin spirit, emerging from its considerable strife. This history is not without its complications - from temporary closure by the authorities and several raids in the early years to closure and demolition of the old location in 2005. What followed was years of wandering in exile and, finally, resurrection in the new home in Kraftwerk Berlin.

These stories, conversations and shared experiences within our walls forge a resilience that drives towards a shared ideal, the Tresor sound: community, resistance, and the world to come. This was observed in the newly re-unified German youth, who danced and celebrated together from the club’s inception, and into the present day through ongoing community work in Detroit.

To those that have danced before, and to those that will dance in the future: the light at the end of the long Tresor tunnel is a signal. A flicker amidst the fog. This is our future. This is our place.

LNS & DJ Sotofett | Live At Tresor - June 7 2025

The Sustain-Release co-founder steps up to the Phonica mix just ahead of the acclaimed festival’s 11th year. 
New York has an iconic history when it comes to club music, and over the years has seen many great names emerge from its underground scene. In modern times, Aurora Halal is undoubtedly one of those names. 
Aurora has become a staple at forward-thinking institutions like Berghain, De School, and her home base, Nowadays, where she holds a residency. Alongside her international touring, she’s carved out her own vital space through the long-running Mutual Dreaming parties and Sustain-Release, the DIY-rooted festival she co-founded, which continues to push boundaries as it enters its second decade.
Her Phonica mix offers a vivid snapshot of her deep, intuitive approach to DJing—captured live at Mansions, a cozy NYC wine bar turned house party haven. Known for her genre-fluid sets that blend hypnotic techno, house, acid and experimental textures this is the perfect calling card to showcase why she can hold it down with a range of greats like DJ Nobu, Vladimir Ivkovic and more.
We had a chat about the mix with Aurora as well as touching off Sustain and some of her favorite moments at the festival.
