Sound Metaphors Mix Series 01 : David Fogarty

Yuzo Iwata aka Fabio, 50% Cubano, 50% Japanese, Karate blackbelt and DJ/producer, originally from the Iwata Juku Dojo in Japan and now based in Berlin, Yuzo shares with us his latest fascinations from dancefloor land. A rich and thoughtfully put together excursion throughout breakbeat, synthetic psychedelia, new beat and other stellar four-on-the-floor nuances. From working in some of Berlin's finest record stores (*wink*), Yuzo has clearly developed a relationship well beyond familiar with records in a wide range of genres - let this mix take you where you need to go.

Very excited to feature a really special new mix by an old friend from Milan, Gabriele (Sunny Crypt) collects records, occasionally enjoys playing weird music to dancing crowds and also spends some of his happiest days working in a record shop. 
Driven by a strong curiosity towards a wide range of musical genres coming from different eras and different cultural contexts, in a previous life he’s been a resident DJ at Milan’s Dude Club, a true institution for italian clubbing during the last decade. Open you hearts <3

A previous guest of honor at H.A.N.D. as we debuted the series with a recording of his first class workings at Have A Nice Day a few years back - Piers Harrison presents us with yet another generous offering to our new mix series. One of the minds at Test pressing and 1/4 of team Soft Rocks, Piers' insightful relationship with music and dance floor culture has clearly led to a discerning understanding in a wide range of genres - kindly displayed in this pleasant excursion - listen carefully :)

FEEL MY BICEP Podcast 186 - Pablo Bozzi

DJ/psychotherapist Vincent Neumann is back for his second Bassiani broadcast with as much spark as ever. Known for frequent techno sprints at his home away from home Distillery (as well as Berghain), his no-frills, achromatic sets are well documented. A little less known are his forays into a side of electronic music characterised by levity, jacking 90s stompers, italo hits and shuffling house. This one falls into the second category. Bassiani Podcast 143 is a chipper, catchy three-hour quest from the Unitas Multiplex label boss, recorded live at Horoom.

Previous Podcast guests Ndrx and Newa return to the series with Bassiani Podcast 168, a b2b live set recorded back at the club in early March. These twin flames are faithful custodians of the Georgian scene and not for nothing. Independently, the duo have a discernible in-your-face spirit all their own, but together they make for a formidable pair whose sound for sore ears is thrilling and instinctual. Their surging techno bouts are the result of a flawless combo that sprints between slamming beats and underwater echoes with a kindling tempo designed to pique your primal senses. Watch this space, the duo’s skull sessions are reciprocal spellwork in the making, and who knows what they’ll summon up next.

PDA MIX 05 ♥ Boys' Shorts

Boys' Shorts is the ascendant Greek DJ and production duo of Vangelis and Tareq. Originally crossing paths at a club in Thessaloniki, their partnership has since generated positive dancefloor energy across the world, extending beyond their luminous DJ sets into cult edits, remixes and productions. Their contribution to the PHANTASYMIX series takes in each facet of their inspirations, moving bodies with everything from DJ City and Roza Terenzi, to Pet Shop Boys and My Bloody Valentine, conjuring romance and euphoria with a subtle touch.

"In every mix, we aim to capture the mood of the time it's recorded. We include tracks that accompany us on our travels, inspire our work, and those favorite songs we keep returning to. This mix was recorded in the final days of summer, where the energy of festivals and open-air parties begins to balance with the melancholy of early autumn" - Boys' Shorts

Andrew Weatherall was a main influence for the Something Spæcial series from the get-go, so here finally is The Robot Scientists tribute to one of the most influential, creative, productive, classy and original producers we know. We decided to pick the tracks, remixes and co-productions from him we love most and put them in almost full length into a slowly developing, slowly grooving pretty long mix that pays complete respect to the meticulously drafted tracks and all their fantastic details mainly from his A Love From Outer Space years 2012-20. It is a homage just as a monument we hope for his creative output. Enjoy the ride.

At last year’s Opening Party at Unsound Kraków, DJ E (aka Chuquimamani-Condori) showcased their distinct hyper-charged sound. Narrowing it down to genres is pretty impossible, but there are fragments of Andean folk, cumbia and country music ballads, often carefully layered with a bunch of soundboard-effects. The result is a classic DJ E set. Many of the tracks played here were recently included in the almost 2-hour long collection Edits, which you can pick up on Chuquimamani-Condori’s Bandcamp page.

With unparalleled discipline in the studio and a humble, passionate approach, he has developed a distinctive sound that is easily recognizable within the scene.

He has performed at prestigious clubs like Fabrik Madrid, Womb Tokyo, and Brunch Barcelona, and at international festivals such as DGTL, MAYDAY, CRSSD, and Nature One. His carefully curated sound has captured the attention of industry heavyweights, releasing music on influential labels such as CLR, Trip, Soma, JAM, MORD, and DCLTD.

His album In Safe Hiding received a perfect 10/10 rating from the prestigious German magazine Mixmag for its emotional depth. Since his first EP release in 2007, he has accumulated over 100 releases, including collaborations with renowned artists like Grammy-winner Dubfire and the respected The Advent.

He has also remixed tracks for major names such as Slam, Nicole Moudaber, Indira Paganotto, Marco Bailey, Renato Cohen, Marco Faraone, Mark Broom, Coyu, among others.

Flug is an active figure in the vibrant cultural scene of Barcelona, where he currently resides.

John Digweed - ransitions 1093 ( 2 Hour Live mix Neopop Festival 2016)

Andrew Weatherall's first official posthumous mix. The only b2b DJ Harvey ever agreed to. Six hours at Trouw. This one's special.

When mulling which direction to go in for RA's 1000th mix celebrations, many options came to mind. Some shadowy character 2-stepping around the fringe of our collective consciousness? An impossible-level IDM icon?

All tempting. But, ultimately, we are a DJ-forward publication and this is a DJ mix series. It felt truer to the history of the RA Podcast to release deep vault material from a time when the world of niche records felt different, tighter, more discrete.

The fourth-longest mix in the series' history is an unrepeatable marathon set recorded in 2012 at a superclub that no longer exists. 2012, incidentally, is farther away from 2025 than 2012 was from 2000... if we have to clock it, so do you.

It's the coming together of one British icon who passed away in 2020, and another whose time on the road has scaled back considerably as of late. DJ Harvey agreed to exactly one b2b set in his life: this one, with Andrew Weatherall.

The night took place at Trouw, an Amsterdam club already considered legendary before it shuttered its doors in the opening hours of 2015, as part of an RA series anchored around start-to-close combinations. Harvey was at the peak of an irresistible career second act, which dovetailed with a disco revival that dominated clubs for years. Weatherall, with infinite brownie points stockpiled from the '90s, remained everyone's favourite debonair psychonaut. 

What follows is 385 scintillating minutes of arpeggiated chug and slow-cresting climaxes: a moment when the resting heart rate of dance floors plunged lower than any comparable point in the 21st century. A masterclass, entirely self-contained in audio form.

If you've got time to spare, a fun side game is sussing out who plays what. A disco-dub cover of Echo & the Bunnymen? Smart money's on Weatherall. Exuberant EQ'ing of The Isley Brothers? Gotta be Harvey. As for the low 'n slow, lightly spangled house that was all the rage in the early 2010s (think Maxxi Soundsystem, Disco Bloodbath, Rub & Tug, C.O.M.B.I. and Full Pupp), it's anyone's guess. 127 BPM feels practically like an F1 car.

When we kicked off our RA.1000 campaign, we outlined a few goals: tick off a handful of long-awaited dream guests, honour architects who shaped the world around us and deliver recordings you truly can't hear anywhere else. Full send.

DJing and the mythmaking around it has undergone a quantum leap since 2012, let alone 2006, 1996 or 1989. For those of us who were kicking around in the former, there's a creeping melancholy that our prime is fast becoming a matter of historical record. The killing moon really did come too soon. 

Where will electronic music, DJ sets or any of this be in 2044? Hard to say. Best not to overthink that one. Instead, we want to say thanks to all contributors on the series so far. Now enjoy luxuriating in the company of two of the greatest to ever do it, together, for the first and last time.⁠ – Gabriel Szatan (Editor, RA)

Manfredas, a DJ/producer based in Vilnius, Lithuania, is also known as one half of Dresden party with Ivan Smagge. His kaleidoscopic play, shaped by the genre-spanning musical knowledge cultivated as a radio DJ, radiates an eclectic and irresistible attraction while evoking influences from electro, disco, post-punk, and beyond. This two-hour set, live-recorded at BAR Inc Osaka in July 2025, is no exception to his spellbinding style.

DREAMING 049 :  MANFREDAS @BAR INC JULY 2025

The first thing you notice in Beau Beaumont’s Delayed with mix isn’t aggression or volume, but control. Each layer slots into place with a clarity that leaves no room for drift. It’s techno in high resolution - grooves stretched to their limit, shifts measured with care, a ride that never collapses under its own weight.

That clarity comes from experience. Years spent running one of the UK’s most forward-thinking parties, building an independent label Meine Nacht, and diving into modular synthesis have sharpened Beau’s ear for pacing and design. Her work ranges from NTS residencies to commissions for Nike and the WDR Studio for Electronic Music. Still, it’s this same multidisciplinary edge that you hear here, surgical mixing, grooves that never stagnate, and a sense of movement that feels both human and machine. This is propulsion without fatigue: a set built to carry you, wherever you are.
