Bill Kouligas is the mind behind one of modern electronic music's greatest and most innovative labels, PAN. His remarkable ear for music meant that he released some of the earliest records from luminaries like Yves Tumor, Helena Hauff and Eartheater, helping to jumpstart several remarkable careers. And each PAN release is lovingly and lavishly packaged like an art object in itself, an approach you can read more about in this month's feature-length cover story.

The Berlin artist's RA Podcast is an audio companion to that cover story, and it underlines not only Kouligas's range as a label A&R but also as a DJ. Reflecting the label's evolution from straight-up noise to musique concréte to leftfield dance music and then avant-pop, the mix cycles through stages of strange, staggered beats, almost celestial ambient music, passages of overwhelming noise and sound that sublimate into floating clouds before solidifying back into club music, and a couple engaging spoken word passages and endless manipulations of the human voice. In other words, it sounds a lot like PAN.

For today's Crack Mix, Oldyungmayn comes through with a kinetic club workout, fuelled by hard drum and percussive polyrhythms from the get-go. Featuring tracks from Scratcha DVA, Hodge, Doctor Jeep and many more, this is relentless, bass-heavy listening, just how we like it.

Across both his production and DJ output, the Palestinian-Egyptian artist  conveys a heady, frenetic dynamism rooted in textural depth, combining harsh sonics with heavy club euphoria. Which is exactly what he showcases with his mix here.

･₊‧.°.⋆✮⋆.°.‧₊ THAT DOWNTEMPO MIX

I had the chance to warm up the @casamontjuic dream for our last session of "Me siento extraña," with one of the most inspiring producers for me atm, James K.

It was a very special opportunity for me to collect all these intimate sounds and play them in public; it was such a spiritual experience for me. The mix is an exploration of different emotions and sensations through old sounds and new ones from @jass-29, @roza-terenzi, @avsluta, @alex-drewchin, @aso_hello, trickpony, @broosnica, @oklou93, @matchbox1, and ECCO2k.

And also, I couldn't be more grateful to have Ludmila's visuals, which made everything look cozier and more special. You all should follow her work. <3

THE FEAR TO DIE ALONE

Weekly Beats 2024 - Week 50.

Looking at how I barely finished the last few tracks before the submission deadline, I just wanted to do a quick-and-dirty and free-styled this in a few hours.

And I'm actually quite fond of it.
