The Manchester-based head of YOUTH draws us into a hazy interzone of gauzy electronics and downbeat techno.

Fact Mix 847: DJ Lyster (Feb '22)

Earthy, physical rhythms meet experimental sonics on SonarMix 037, which moves from hyperlocal strains of baile funk to hyperreal techno. Galician artist Akazie channels "anger, tenderness, closeness and distance" on a recording made " at a time of great global anger and impotence."

SonarMix 037: Akazie

"I started in the clubs, and that's where my heart is." The British singer-songwriter and RA's newest cover star talks about her new album, BRAT, live from AVA London.

This week's Exchange is with Resident Advisor's latest cover star: Charli xcx. The British singer-songwriter has garnered a reputation as one of the most unpredictable and boundary-pushing pop artists of her generation, collaborating with contemporaries like A. G. Cook, Yaeji and the late SOPHIE. And she's now on the heels of her most recent album, BRAT, which came out in June and has already been lauded as one of the best albums of the year.

In this conversation recorded live at AVA London with journalist Chal Ravens, Charli xcx dives into the making of the album. She calls it a club record—that, she says, is "where her heart is." After posting songs on MySpace around 2008, she was asked to DJ at warehouse parties when she was still in her teens. She felt alive in that space, she remembers, doing crazy, embarrassing things.

Now in a different chapter of her life and career, she contemplates her desire to make challenging music that still appeals to a broad audience. It's a pendulum that swings radically in both ways, and she finds herself reinventing herself within the pop space and navigating that tension again and again. Listen to the episode in full.

"I fell in love with the piano again." The DJ and composer discusses the vulnerability of the creative process, returning to acoustic instruments and touring her latest album.

Laurel Halo has been circling around the club music world for a number of years, but she's only recently entered the echelons of jazz and contemporary classical. Originally from Michigan, she went to music school in Ann Arbor before moving to Berlin, and now Los Angeles, where she composed her album, Atlas—a release that's been met with widespread critical acclaim. She also played alongside Moritz von Oswald in his jazz outfit the Moritz von Oswald Trio, and released a number of eclectic, UK-tinged dance floor records on underground giants like Hyperdub and Livity Sound.

In this RA Exchange, Laurel Halo discusses the new direction of her music and what it's been like to tour it live with cellist Leila Bordreuil. She also talks about her creative inspiration (namely, the Thai filmmaker Apichatpong Weerasethakul and books by surrealist writers like Ursula K. Le Guin and Italo Calvino), the practice of aesthetic minimalism more generally and the methods she uses to create subtle variations in pieces that are slow to evolve. Listen to the episode in full.

"The first time I heard @thelazergazer live was in Barcelona at FOC, and let me tell you – my brain cells couldn’t handle it. I had no idea what was happening, I kept asking myself “how is she doing this?", but my sober ass danced like I’d just been possessed with bass music. When I found out she was coming back to Planeta Za, there was no way I was missing it.

Luckily, I had a shift that night, but let’s be real – work had to wait. I snuck onto the dance floor with every chance I got, just to witness this woman mix an absurd number of genres with transitions so smooth, you couldn’t even tell when one ended and the next began. And the way she kept everyone glued on the dance floor for the entire set, I haven’t seen that for long time. It was honestly one of my favourite sets I heard this year."

Jurango - 14 January 2025

Archive up & away for the last #SubbedOut transmission. The first one for 2025 hits home with a much awaited back to back mix by two very good friends and an extended part of the musical family some of us share in the ancient city 🙏🖤

Killer DJ spirits that I have been following for yrs, they have both represented the show separately in the past and after the now 'one for the books' Matter outdoor party in Athens last May where they closed the night in more than fine style, I asked them to do this b2b for Subbed Out. Love you peeps!
