A: Moments In Limbo 
B1: Up & Down
B2: Voyager Dub

Aroma Pitch Recordings the third! The DJ Trio and Live-Act finished their third EP on APR and it's ready to get the plays it deserves. With this one the boys have reached a new level of production and maturity. Three tracks full of twists and turns making this a perfect kickstart for a timeless summer.

"Moments In Limbo" delivers a heavy bassdrum and moody chords combined with raw analogue drumsounds and a synthline to wrap your head around. "Up & Down" comes around way trickier and combines tweaked synth sounds with an intelligent drum programming and an acidic bassline. Until a dub chord hits you from behind and takes you all the way back. "Voyager Dub" is clearly an hommage to early dubtechno. Spacious sounds, long delays and an impelling hi-hat that won't let you go makes this the hidden gem on this EP. As soon as the Pad kicks in you are all gone to another sphere.

We asked Ewan to make us a short promo mix and this came in, totalling 32 tracks and clocking in at 2 hours 24 minutes! It opens with the sound of Mark Hollis’s voice as a nice nod to Spirit of Eden and then veers from drone through Balearic, Compass Point ish funk, Psych-y stuff and ends with Krauty excursions and a smattering of New Wave Pop.

We’re very grateful
Thank you Ewan xxx  🙏🏻

This month’s episode features a mixed bag of vintage and new borderline boogie, left field and house off the deep end. Peak summer styles here in Chicago so more up tempo to match the moods of the city.

For RA.1000, we take it back to the source with two never-before-heard tapes from Frankie Knuckles's private collection

There is no house music without Frankie Knuckles, literally or figuratively. The queer icon's luxurious DJ sets at Chicago's Warehouse gave a rising movement its name. From there, countless offshoots splintered and travelled the globe. But what did the genesis and growth of the sound really feel like?

The Godfather of House left behind not only timeless records, but personalised cassettes with hand-drawn liner notes handed out to friends and family. Two of those, dated to 1989 and 1996, have been digitised especially for RA.1000. (Thank you to the Frankie Knuckles Foundation.)

To put that in context: the first tape predates not only many of today's active clubbers, but the entire existence of jungle, drum & bass, UK garage, French touch, Jersey club, Afrobeats, IDM, baile funk, hardcore, footwork, dubstep, dub techno, tech house, breaks, minimal, maximal, gqom, gabber, grime and hyperpop.

In short… that's a very, very long time ago. The world of dance music was much smaller. DJ culture was functionally unrecognisable from the one we see in 2025. 

And yet, to some degree, what you'll hear on RA.1000 hasn't changed at all. It's a capture of not only what made Frankie Knuckles one of the beloved pioneers of first-generation dance music, but what draws people to club culture in the first place.

The mood on these Frankie Knuckles sets outlasts even its creator: a spirit of optimism that floods the world's best dance floors and keeps dance music pulsing on into the future, nearly 40 years later, in spite of it all. We end our 1000th mix celebrations here because it all starts there.

Star Creature Vibes Radio 10 – Tim Zawada

A DJ mix from the archive, "Summer In The City" was made in 2009 for DFA's Radio Mix series.

Session Victim need little introduction - the German duo of Hauke Freer and Matthias Reiling have been consistent providers of quality house grooves, vinyl only DJ sets (the best, obviously) and hardware only live shows.  Their current EP trilogy for Jimpster's Delusions of Grandeur label is a prime example, with Ian Pooley and Jimpster providing remixes and the likes of Nebraska, Eo and Viken Arman collaborating on the originals.  Here, the pair celebrate the series with a special mixtape...

Visionquest release the first single from Wareika’s forthcoming long player late January, coming in the shape of ‘Keen To Rebel’ and accompanied by Ryan Crosson, Dewalta & Shannon, and Boronas remixes.

The musical trio of Florian Schirmacher, Henrik Raabe and Jakob Seidensticker aka Wareika have carved out quite the career over the past eight years, racking up releases for Zip’s Perlon imprint, Circus Company, Tartelet and Connaisseur Recordings. Here we see the group push on with their fourth album project and the second for Visionquest following ‘Wternal’ in 2013, once again encompassing their unique brand of electronica across the release.

Ahead of the full L.P., Visionquest release the ‘Keen To Rebel’ single, opening with the original collaboration by Wareika and Swiss producer Miajica, co-founder of the fleeting wax imprint alongside Mehmet Aslan. In their typical fashion the collective treat us to an intricately unfolding composition fuelled by staccato guitar licks and psychedelic vocal swells alongside snaking bass grooves and rising arpeggios. Visionquest co founder Ryan Crosson then steps up on remix duties next delivering a more robust take on things with rumbling subs, upfront rhythms and unrelenting dub echoes of the original parts throughout.

Opening the latter half of the package Dewalta & Shannon turn in their eleven-minute interpretation and as always from the duo stripped back low-slung rhythms, complex production tricks and a naturally hypnotic feel are prevalent throughout its ever-blossoming arrangement. Germany’s Boronas rounds off the package with his remix as a digital only bonus, dropping the tempo and applying a smooth and subtly developing feel to things via drawn out filter sweeps and a chugging groove.

Release Date: January 22nd (Beatport) and February  5th(General)

Exotic, eccentric and unique have been at the root of Garth's sound since first hearing him in 1994 and this mix is no different. Garth continuously brings something quality to the table(s) and I am thrilled to have his mix be a part of THC radio. 2 plus hours of musical bliss with all bases covered in this jam.
Enjoy!
