A few words from Evita [@la_dolc_evita] about her mix...
 
This mix unfolds like a lucid dream on the verge of breaking—familiar, yet forever just out of reach.  Melodies drift through vast, empty rooms; basslines rise like fog from the ground, slow and enveloping.  It’s the sound of falling in love with a moment you know won’t last, and dancing with its ghost long after it’s gone.

My sister asked me to send a playlist to listen to while in labour, which i thought was a really fun task. I’m not sure if it helped, but here is a collection of the songs i sent. It ended up being a pretty self-indulgent exercise, but the idea was that i thought these songs would be nice to hear when you get born, depending on your taste in music as a baby. 

Ideally enjoyed while being born, but suitable for other occasions. 

stars of the lid - the evil that never arrived
annie a - chaque plante, chaque personne
ishq - flowt
the necks - open (partial)
lawrence - dawn
hiroshi yoshimura - wet land
seltene erden - hoidas lake
ulla - hope sonata (partial)
bill evans - peace piece
john abercrombie - timeless
miles davis - in a silent way 
japanes synchro system - pure finger in deep river
satoshi and makoto - crepuscule leger
morgan fisher - meeting and merging 
lonnie liston smith - colors of the rainbow
lifted - mirror in my room 
sue raney - stardust
matthew hayes - fill the heart with hope
frank harris & maria marquez - tanada de ordeno 
electronic system - skylab

This mix is from Palm Pilot and Break Mode under their moniker Freak Out! and it references a lot of things they play at their nights in Portland. They like to ride the wave where genres collide and create euphoric moments that can be exciting or excite them at least. They take the dancefloor along for the ride.

Welcoming back Personal Space with a very special mix from dear friend and musical mind Karl Halliday. Recorded in the backyard of Joseph Street in April '25 amongst close friends. Karl sets the mood below a grey humid sky unearthing some of his favourite new-wave, post-punk, ebm & industrial leaning records from his collection. Karl weaves together a soundscape of emotive sounds & vulnerability, drawing connections to moments shared with friends & moments of inwards musical discovery. 

"When asked to reflect on my relationship with music, my initial impulse is to celebrate how I owe my dearest, most enduring friendships to a harmonious love of song and dance. My personal space is a social space, a community whose coming together signals more than common taste, but a collective desire for shared experiences and to share experiences. Here, presenting my favourite music, the sort I seldom get to play, I offer an experience I wish to share with you. Spirit propels discovery. I hope you enjoy." - Karl Halliday

A Month of Sundays w/ Bill Spencer 030825

For RA.1000, DJ Sprinkles' first mix in over a decade is a powerful meditation on the genocide in Gaza.

Dance music often relies on simple narratives: release, escape, unity. But those narratives can often feel inadequate, and even at times, hollow. Or, as Terre Thaemlitz might bluntly put it, just "shitty."

For her first mix in around 15 years, Terre Thaemlitz AKA DJ Sprinkles, challenges us to think differently. "I felt this 1000th podcast should reflect the moment in which it was made," she told us in her Q&A.

And what is this moment? Every day since Israel's 2023 assault on Gaza began, an average of 28 children have been killed. That's an entire classroom, every day, for over 600 days (at the time of writing). It's a staggering figure that only captures a fragment of the listless cruelty imposed on the strip.

Faced with such a genocide, what can music really do? How political can it truly be?  For their RA.1000, Thaemlitz gives us an unflinching rebuke to the idea that music should provide escapism. The mix weaves ambient fragments and jazz passages, woven around samples from Israeli media and the voices of outspoken Jewish critics like Gabor Maté and Norman Finkelstein. 

The result is not just a protest, but a document of our time. For Terre Thaemlitz, music is never just music. Her RA.1000 serves as a reminder that in an age of relentless suffering, the most political act is to reject the illusion of escape, and search for something greater.
