Jay Duncan beams in for our next podcast with her 2024 set at The Packet Inn. An Adonis and Dalston Superstore regular, she sashays through 90 minutes of SXC house groovers, pumpers and jackers.

"I had the best time playing in that silly little pub! Unfortunately, I was clashing with my best friend Angel D'lite who was showing Sputnik how it's done, which was heart-breaking to leave!”. Afterwards, however, they discovered both had played Sunscreen’s ‘Perfect Motion’ peak set (albeit different mixes). “I thought that was such a beautiful moment of natural synchronicity, or as she likes to call it 'the mushroom network’.”

“I also closed my set with this crazy track by George Acosta called Might As Well Party (Jungle Mix) that I'd found the previous week. It's this slutty, chuggy, fast house record and it breaks down into some ragga tip and switches tempo and ramps up to full on jungle track and then just casually resumes into a slutty fun house record. I adore it and think it’s just such a laugh!!!"

Launching new label, Pond Water, this month, Jay christens it with her track ‘Horse That Shows’ on the 29th, while she has an EP coming on Trule in the New Year.

One of Mexico City's key players in session.

Paulina Rodriguez, AKA Paurro, came to club music relatively late in life. It took hold of her for the first time when she was in her twenties, during a chance visit to the legendary London institution, fabric, in 2008. One look at her CV today would confirm that she's definitely made up for the late start. 

Sixteen years later, Rodriguez has worn nearly every hat in the industry, from radio programming, label management and PR to residencies at Mexico City's finest clubs. Nowadays, she's just as hard to pin down as ever, with a global reach: she currently holds a residency with Munich's Radio8000 and tours extensively across Europe, Asia and the Americas.

The House of Paurro, her party series, is much like its globetrotting founder: this year alone it's hosted events at Tresor in Berlin, Making Time in Philadelphia and Public Records in New York City. Oh yeah and don't forget, she's also producing absolute bangers, such as 2022's "Galavision," in the moments in between. It sounds like a lot, but you get the feeling the sky really is the only limit for Paurro.  

Rodriguez's journey wasn’t without struggle. She's openly addressed challenges like breaking into the industry as a Mexican artist and facing sexual harassment. Today, she's a champion of community-focused global club culture, embodying optimism and ambition.

At the heart of it all: sharing unabashed joy, wherever that may be. Her RA Podcast is no different—it's a joyride through the House of Paurro, weaving together influences spanning a rich fusion of UK, Latin and truly borderless sounds.

RA.966 Paurro

This DJ set by Mike Servito was recorded somewhere on the astral plane (a filthy Detroit basement) on February 1, 2025, at Ritual Rave, a party celebrating the pagan holiday Imbolc, which signals the start of Spring.

Buckle up and get ready to crank that shit ‘cause you’re in for a wild ride. This set is laced with only the rawest, bitchiest, nastiest, sweatiest, most classic Detroit-basementiest @mikeservito cuts. The rave reviews are in and the critics are hailing it as “A masterpiece of Servito '95. Mike in his highest and most enlightened form. A set so transformative that it effortlessly and masterfully bends the time-space continuum. It's an aural bitchslap like no other. It’s quintessentially pureDetroitmoods."

Ritual Rave is an annual part of Imbolc: https://imbolc.cargo.site/
