THE TRAGIC SESSIONS

An artist with minimal online presence, Commodo is one of an increasingly rare few who make waves through the strength of their music alone. He builds bass-focused beats with soul and substance that never perpetuate a formula. Together with Gantz he just released a monster record on our ITX series. Enjoy!

My Nowadays Nonstop set from Juneteenth weekend is now available to listen back to.

For it, I considered Black Excellence in a moment where the US and many institutions quickly - though certainly not surprisingly - cast aside their annual Pride and Juneteenth virtue signaling to capitulate to the current administration’s authoritarian and racist agenda. This context makes it urgently necessary FOR US to take charge of preserving narratives BY US. This “DEI Mix” is made up of 99% Black voices who have inspired me, are a part of my daily life, and/or, importantly, Black artists, like myself, who are constant participants in and contributors to the New York dance music/nightlife scene. Often without proper recognition. We all collectively make up the history of now. From my experiences in positions of distinct convergence in this community, like my tenure at The Lot Radio, I’ve come across so many voices that deserve to be heard and preserved.  

Tonally, I’d say the set is mercurial and seething, brimming with tension and mindful of the state of the dance floor at the beginning of the night. Starting with an empty dance floor and pacing the rise to a euphoric club was top of mind. Yet, my tongue-in-cheek sensibilities, ever present in my productions and selections, poke through too…Future of course. Truly a dream of mine to play that track in that room. 

Thank you to everyone who came out to support me, sent me kind messages, and danced through my first set inside one of my favorite clubs.

"This round of Nonstop features cutting-edge dance music from many pockets of the scene, from vintage-inspired Los Angeles techno to stylish hardcore.

Spurge, the head behind the forward-thinking label Eto Ano, opens the room. Their sets bridge the underground, experimental sounds that their label is known for with dancefloor functionality with a thoughtful curational eye."

SUBMISSION (MASTER MIX 682)

Expansive dub vibrations from the On-U Sound maestro.

Adrian Sherwood has spent nearly five decades reshaping how dub is heard and felt. From absorbing reggae and funk as a teenager at the Newlands Club in High Wycombe to cofounding On-U Sound in 1979, he’s been a restless force in British sound system culture. His debut production, Dub From Creation, signalled his instinct to twist the Jamaican form into bold, experimental directions.

That spirit defined On-U Sound, where reggae collided with post-punk, industrial and synth pop to forge a catalogue still unlike anything else. Sherwood became a crucial bridge, producing for legends like Prince Far I, Bim Sherman and Lee “Scratch” Perry, while also working with Depeche Mode, Nine Inch Nails and Sinéad O’Connor.

His  RA Mix (yes, you read that right) arrives at a moment of renewal—RA.1001 is the first in a new era for the series. (After 1,000 editions of the RA Podcast, we're updating the name to better reflect what it's become.) 

Recorded at his Ramsgate studio, the 76-minute mix folds in cuts from <i>The Collapse Of Everything<i> alongside material from across the On-U Sound universe, plus collaborations with Panda Bear, Sonic Boom, Coldcut and Spoon. It's Sherwood doing what he's always done: stretching dub into endless new shapes.

New SPND20 Mixtape in: welcome Function!📼

One of techno’s true underground heroes, Function steps in with a mix that captures the essence of his club sound: deep, dark, hypnotic and intensely layered. Cerebral yet physical, this set distills over 30 years of experience into a rolling trip that’s as uncompromising as it is immersive.

Recorded in Berlin with a Xone 96, with Function’s signature sound design woven throughout, the mix bridges heavyweight classics and future-shaping material. Kicking off with Nastia Reigel’s massive new remix of his own Disaffected, it showcases three tracks from her upcoming debut album Identity (out September 26 on Infrastructure).

The selection runs wide: from Regis, Rødhâd, LSD, Nørbak, Nastia Reigel, Ignez, Rene Wise, Silent Servant, Alarico and UFO95 to unreleased gems by Filippo Scorcucchi - alongside Function’s own productions, edits and textures. The result is a hypnotic, high-pressure session built for the club’s inner core, designed for maximum immersion and intensity.

A rare insight into the craft of one of techno’s most enduring innovators. Expect a journey that tunnels deep, bends time, and refuses to let go. 🖤

Crypt of the Wizard 040925

Responsible for a handful exquisite platters on the likes of Dial Records, LARJ, Figures’ sub-division LF RMX and his own imprint, Intergalactic Research Institute for Sound, Georgia-born, Berlin-based sound explorer Irakli lands his new transmission for RYC: a mix giving full vent to his ever innovative and shape-shifting approach to floor narratives. Always going the unsuspected route with no compass to guide us back onto the normative boulevard, Irakli takes us on a bumpy ride across jagged proto-technoid topographies, fractal-like foldings and mind-expanding new horizons of musical possibilities. The result is - as per the man’s high-flying standards, an ode to techno’s core values of innovation and fearlessness, developing the kind of pioneering mindset we miss so much these days. Electrifying.
