Growing up in the UK, I heard Algeria before I saw it. This mix reflects musical memories from childhood journeys with my dad to later visits to my ancestral land. Algeria's diverse music reflects its history of resistance and helps carry a resilient spirit from one generation to the next.

5 GATE TEMPLE  300925

The gifted London DJ and curator goes big on bass futurism.

"To pull a thread." This old English adage means to follow a small detail that might unravel into something larger and more significant. It's also the inspiration behind London artist mi-el's NTS Radio show, and a neat way of understanding her approach as a DJ. 

Take mi-el's rich archive of mixes. From NTS to The Trilogy Tapes, they show her to be a deeply personal selector and curator, pushing past functionality into something more expressive, narrative and often political. A show about Refugee Week? Afrofuturist world-making? Interlocking systems of domination? All material is putty in her hands. 

Now based in Berlin, mi-el is simply a wicked club DJ. In just a few years she's played Panorama Bar, De School and FOLD, as well as festivals including Waking Life, Terraforma and Field Maneuvers. 

Alongside peers and predecessors like Josey Rebelle, she represents a new generation of Black British artists reinventing the wheel, and as we mark the beginning of UK Black History Month, no other candidate felt more fitting. 
 
RA.1007 shows why. The 55-minute session is a deft balancing act of depth and playfulness, humour and heaviness, rooted in club intensity and the futurism of the UK hardcore continuum. It's firm confirmation that, in mi-el's hands, the art of the DJ mix is alive and well.

“Wide mode on, master tempo off. Let’s ride.” - Razrbark 

it always feels like a special day when there’s a new razrbark mix hitting the web, like a rare delicious sweet treat being gifted to us all. i’m not sure when i first discovered razrbark, perhaps a few years ago as it feels like we’ve been connected online forever (but who can keep track of time these days?), however, the day that i did was like unearthing a hidden gem. based in new york, razrbark has an approach to djing that comes from years of dedication to the dancefloor & being raver first and foremost. there’s a heat to her mixes that come from the warm glow of the tracks that she selects, the sludgy pace that allows you to practice patience and savour every bite, absorbing the mystical kinetic energy that is channeled through every record. from her contributions to ccl’s subglow, down2earth and distant signals mix series, the esoteric the lot radio sessions to the live recordings from iconic gigs such as the much-loved honcho campout and sorry records at bossa nova civic club, there’s a lot to sink your teeth into. 

another contribution to the world of razrbark, her 909 mix starts of humid with a chugging energy that comes with tracks slowed all the way down before flowing into an otherworldly selection of dreamy, acidic techno, creating a light respite from the steamy intro before ending on a grungy note. you can hear the references from one of razrbark’s key influences, buffy the vampire slayer. if the bronze booked djs, this is what they would play.

“Before leaving for Europe I’d recorded a completely different mix, settling on a feeling: a mix of self-doubt and a belief that what I’d prepared wasn’t quite right.   Meeting Ana in London got me thinking about the mix again. I found her to be brave, moving halfway across the world by herself and got to thinking about how excited and perhaps lonely I’d feel if I did the same. I liked Ana’s openness to new things, and how she’d managed to foster a vibrant creative partnership with Ally, despite being so far away.

In Ally and Ana is a boldness, a delight in pursuing what is interesting and right for them despite how uncomfortable this might be, which strangely I feel comes across best in pop music. I love pop music, especially from the early 00’s: I enjoy the drama and the extended outro’s that leave us in a different place to where we started. The feeling when the party is over and you’re deciding what to do next. I felt inspired by these songs & the CD’s that Ally likes to play in the car. A mix, in essence about intimate moments shared with friends near and far.”
