The Third Policeman read by Patrick Magee

RA.1000 launches with Theo Parrish, live at fabric: a vanishingly rare club mix from the king of deep crates and impossible transitions.

There are DJ sets and then there are Theo sets. No matter how many times you've caught him in action, every time still feels like the first. Running hot, levels smoking, isolator working over time. You think you know dance music? Think again.

Parrish's debut on the RA Podcast is a milestone for the series, one we've sought for over 15 years. So it was only right that Theo led off our 1000th celebrations. Recorded live at fabric last December as part of RA's party with the London club for their 25th anniversary, this three-hour segment documents the crescendo of his eight-hour marathon. 

The Detroit legend doesn't release mixes often, and when he does, they're usually studio recordings: think NTS shows, his 100% Detroit edition of DJ-Kicks or classic tapes Body (1997) and Methods of Movement (2000). A capture of the Sound Signature boss on the dancefloor is hard to come by.

Sure, there's galvanising build-ups and crowd-pleasers, but laced throughout a Parrish beatdown are rarities designed to shock the system. In a business dominated by marketing, the vinyl master towers above thanks to a relentless hunger for lustrous melodies, moods and textures of all stripes, which he and he alone can fold into an inspiring and exhilarating joyride.

On RA.1000, blissful reggae precedes new wave disco; '80s R&B morphs into synthy techno; bleepy Chicago jack makes way for a poignant vocal ballad. It's Theo through and through. Once again, he proves that anything and everything is possible with the right records.

"How To Empty A Cup" was recorded almost entirely in the rain, which is unusual because it was recorded in Los Angeles. The album was organically written & produced by Danny Scott Lane who called upon a few key guests for wind and string features. "How To Empty A Cup" is inspired by the sounds of the artist's immediate surroundings: children playing outside of the window, a teachers strike, the bird's nest above the street sign, crickets in the bush near the parking lot. This is Lane's debut album as a solo artist.

Danny Scott Lane - Five

Slow Reveal is taken from "Paths", the new album by Darren Harper.

Limited edition cassettes and CD's in hand made packages available here: 

https://shimmeringmoodsrecords.bandcamp.com/album/paths

“A micro-world of textured electronics and voltage; a simple wind chime singing in a breeze” 
Created with a modular synthesizer and effect pedals, Paths is an account of missteps and error, a process of understanding; an unfolding. A discovery of oneʼs voice...a reflection of nature. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

darren harper's latest work is a joyous collage for all seasons; a delicate record that soothes and refreshes the spirit. 

kaleidoscopic chimes and playful bells tumble against each other. twinkling notes drift down in little flurries, then melt away as sunlit chords push aside the clouds. 

low, thrumming bokeh echoes bring distant mountaintops intimately close, then curve down into hushed forest floors, winds whispering through leaves overhead. tiny layers of loops and quiet delays, jumbled melodies, sparse crackling branches, and somber swells invite contemplation of these fragile spaces. 

each moment is cherished, each song reveals new life: ephemeral, yet enduring. the ice breaks, slowly gliding away as the river shakes off its long slumber. 

never obscuring, always revealing; these intertwining paths abound with the hopeful promise that spring is coming.

Darren Harper - Slow Reveal

Second single from Cabogato, the fifth album by German ambient-electronica artist Jumpel. The album is available now via Bandcamp (https://jumpel.bandcamp.com) and will also be available on Spotify, iTunes etc in August.

More on Jumpel here: www.hiddenshoal.com/project/jumpel/

“Qualitatively spacious, electronically dense, cinematically enthralling and calmly floating” – Igloo Magazine

Cabogato
Despite his obvious mastery of the dizzying possibilities afforded by technology, Jumpel continues to craft music of intense intimacy and humanity. Cabogato is the product of experimentation with modular synthesizers, field recordings and piano, finely honed into a song suite inspired by time spent at Cabo de Gata-Níjar Natural Park in the Andalusia region of Spain. An enthralling testament to the power of careful distillation and minimalism, Cabogato exudes an emotional complexity that belies its seemingly simple surfaces. From the expansive low-key pulse of ‘Black Sand’ to the delicate, piano-led ‘You’, the album’s vulnerability is both reflective and hypnotic.

Underground Resistance is probably the most important Detroit record label since Motown: their sound and attitude emerged in the early '90s as the most uncompromising one from the Motorcity, it was pivotal in shaping US and European Techno, started the resurgence of 90's Electro, but most of all indelebly marked the consciousness of thousands of people around the world who share their messages of resistance and hope.
And last but not least, they did so many amazing records!

So, 30 years has passed since UR-001 came out in 1990.
Since UR and 'Mad' Mike Banks were so influential for me, not just sonically but mostly on the attitude side of things, I decided to go thru all my 12"s and make a retrospective tribute mix to celebrate this anniversary.

At first I wanted to pick 30 tracks only and keep it compact but so many great ones were left out.. so I just started and at the end I used 60+ tracks! Almost all the classics are there, plus a fair share of lesser known tunes which really shine as well in my opinion. All from the UR catalogue only. No Z-tracks unfortunately :)

I really hope to have done justice to their sound, and I hope as well that the listeners will enjoy the ride, have the chance to discover some amazing music, and maybe feel the energy and pride and love that Mike Banks and the UR crew put into the music and pressed into the grooves.

In memory of James Stinson, Ron Murphy, Aaron-Carl Ragland

For valentine´s special we have invited the super talented Ciel to join us for our next mix in her own words: 
In honour of Valentine's Day, I decided to make a mix that's all about love. Love that's flirty and sweet, sometimes shy and sometimes passionate, sometimes tumultuous and sometimes ecstatic, sometimes innocent and sometimes sensuous, love that's fun, joyful, and open-hearted. Of course everyone has their own definition of love music, and what they tend to associate with love is usually dependent on the style of music they share with their past and present partners, and so is very personal. For me I tend to think nothing is more romantic than soul, r&b, and jazz. But since this is a dance mix, I selected music for the dancefloor that I consider the descendants of these styles---house, hardcore, and UKG. And just so I can be extra cheesy, every song talks about love explicitly. This is my first year since I started touring that I'm actually home for Valentine's Day, so I plan on enjoying it with my two loves—my bf & our cat. :)
