Here are two tracks I made earlier this year and have been playing out for a while that I want to share.

Be With Dub is a sub bass workout I recorded live on the TR-8S and then spiced up a bit in Ableton. It captures some of the way 2024 has felt - woozy, fractured, thundering, world on fire but some how we still lock in despite everything collapsing around us. This track owes a lot to my love for early UK dubstep, especially Mala and Loefah.

Hold On emerges from somewhere in the vortex between deep house and trance, with alien languages fizzing around a core of chunky piano chords and thick bassline. It's very long, but nothing much changes, except everything is always changing. I feel like this would be a fun track to listen to on a long run.

DUMBEST GIRL ALIVE (ZAAG EDIT)

Comprised entirely of original productions, this week's TANK Mix comes from legendary DJ and tastemaker Jubilee. “I chose to do a 100% production mix because I don’t think a lot of people realize I have 2 full-length albums out and many EPs dating as far back as 2012,” she says. “I mixed some of my favorites that are old and new.”

Secret Handshake is the DJ duo composed of Nile Ashton and Lady Lavender.
In 2019, they launched their collaborative project as an event series, merging their love for dance, visual art, and forward-thinking electronic music. Over the years it has evolved to continue pushing the envelope of the New Orleans underground: faster, heavier, and uncompromising in their selections.

The duo's immersive club experiences all come with a unifying mission: to captivate the new generation of club goers and electronic music lovers. Since 2019, Secret Handshake has produced events with world-renowned artists such as X-Coast, Bianca Oblivion, Martyn Bootyspoon, and more.

THEMMIX016: Secret Handshake

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)
