I don't know DJ Masda at all! Will download.
(In general I'm more interested in colourful big-room house, austere monochrome techno or disco than I am in deep house or British bass music)
― Matt DC, Monday, 23 March 2015 19:36 (nine years ago) link
quite a few good ones this year, if you like monochrome techno check out sleeparchive's recent set. i've enjoyed dj taye, logos, dorian concept, barnt, pender street steppers and edward's set quite a bit.

Masda's mix didnt grab me much unfortunately

Ben Aqua's podcast, which is the opposite of what most RA techno nerds are looking for I'm sure :)

omg this new one

Logos' podcast is my favourite so far this year.
I'll get on the Carlos Souffront mix ASAP.

ahhh another killer one! (glenn astro)

this ruby my dear mix is SO GOOD. most of my electronic listening is on the mellower side these days but this is just irresistible uptempo breakcore

got a little too ridiculous for my taste about 40 minutes in but nice to see someone doing something a bit different on RA

DJ Deeon <3
It sounds EXACTLY like you expect it to sound and is all the better for that.
― Matt DC, Monday, 7 March 2016 18:07 (eight years ago) link
Okay it was up until the 'Roxanne' drop at any rate.
― Matt DC, Monday, 7 March 2016 18:11 (eight years ago) link
sometimes I can really enjoy a left-field drop of a song into one of these mixes. like, even/especially if it's a song I would otherwise not listen to on purpose.

Just came here to post about this. This mix is a thing of beauty.
― ewar woowar (or something), Tuesday, 15 March 2016 09:58 (eight years ago) link
oh my god this mix is gorgeous
the vocal track at 24mins!
― cher guevara (lex pretend), Wednesday, 16 March 2016 09:01 (eight years ago) link
24 mins is a mashup!
― saer, Wednesday, 16 March 2016 13:32 (eight years ago) link
I love this mix, best RA podcast I've heard in a long time, it's all so colourful and inviting.
I don't know much about Soichi Terada, or Japanese house in general, so I'm assuming the Sounds From The Far East comp is the best place to go next?
― Matt DC, Wednesday, 16 March 2016 17:12 (eight years ago) link
Like in general are RA really back on form right now or am I just more engaged? The run since November or so has been exceptional.
― Matt DC, Wednesday, 16 March 2016 17:14 (eight years ago) link
you should definitely check out that new rush hour comp ("sounds from the Far East") or if you're on soulseek it shouldn't be too hard to find "Far East recordings" volumes 1 and 2, the original comps that the new one is compiled from
― the late great, Wednesday, 16 March 2016 17:45 (eight years ago) link
The recent once upon a time in Japan comp (compiled by Brawther) is supposed to be really good, 90s Japanese house-wise
― lute bro (brimstead), Wednesday, 16 March 2016 20:19 (eight years ago) link
i heard about that, have not heard it yet. anybody?
― the late great, Wednesday, 16 March 2016 20:29 (eight years ago) link
Hadnt heart it before but had a quick flick through now, the Ecstasy Boys track on there, ive been wondering what that was for a while
― saer, Wednesday, 16 March 2016 20:43 (eight years ago) link
Still no sign of the elusive "I see right through you, theres nothing to you...dangerous love' record though (assuming its even Japanese)

Sonja Moonear! She was good at Womb in March also, slightly eclipsed by Omar/Libertine.
― mmmm, Tuesday, 24 May 2016 08:44 (eight years ago) link
i was actually a little disappointed in francesco's...compared to some of his mixes over the last few years!
― saer, Tuesday, 24 May 2016 12:20 (eight years ago) link
I agree not his best, I expected to like Andrew James Gustav's XLR8R mix more also (but maybe I am getting him confused with someone else.
― mmmm, Tuesday, 24 May 2016 12:33 (eight years ago) link
The Spring podcasts have disappeared off soundcloud, there were some special moments in those
― saer, Wednesday, 25 May 2016 12:39 (eight years ago) link
the record at 51 mins in Evan Baggs is a bank holiday treat, searched high and low all over Morecambe Bay but not a sign, nice little chaser with the one at 55 mins too
― saer, Friday, 5 August 2016 12:20 (eight years ago) link
The Tijana T one is an absolute barnstormer. Contains a segue of Dance Mania into Fairmont's Gazebo into We Built This House that is just outrageous.
The interview is really good as well, this account of raving in Belgrade as the bombs dropped. And she openly admits to playing records she knows people don't like in order to blow the roof off when she switches up.

what's the best balearic RA podcast? Or even just an outstanding one?
― laraaji p. henson (Stevie D(eux)), Monday, 24 October 2016 22:32 (seven years ago) link
prins thomas. (gets the 'spirit' of baleric, I think.)

Sorry if it's old news but... oh wow, the entire podcast archive is on Soundcloud?! Rejoice! https://soundcloud.com/resident-advisor/sets/ra-podcast-archive
― sonderpop, Tuesday, 25 October 2016 10:05 (seven years ago) link
xp I will investigate that! also yeah I just listend to the Dixon mix from 2007 for the first time (on Mixcloud, which also has everything) and it's really good
― laraaji p. henson (Stevie D(eux)), Tuesday, 25 October 2016 15:48 (seven years ago) link
Harvey's is outstanding and weird and all-over-the-place as well. Cracking use of vocal samples, without wanting to spoiler anything.
The Quiet Village one is also excellent, that's a proper horizontal Sunday morning podcast.
― Matt DC, Tuesday, 25 October 2016 16:08 (seven years ago) link
DJ Harvey? I saw him in Vegas once and it was incredible.
― laraaji p. henson (Stevie D(eux)), Tuesday, 25 October 2016 19:55 (seven years ago) link
The use of a warped, dubby "Telstar" edit in that Harvey mix is brilliant.
― Neil S, Wednesday, 26 October 2016 08:18 (seven years ago) link
I tried to listen to the Harvey mix yday at the gym and it was VERY all over the place. I guess I expected it to have the sort of constant backbeat that most RA mixes have.

Meanwhile....I'm really enjoying the track at 90 mins in Craig Richards one
― saer, Monday, 9 January 2017 20:08 (seven years ago) link
Is Craig Richards good now? I've sort of lost a handle of what he even plays these days.
The Mark Barrott one from last week is lush.
― Matt DC, Monday, 9 January 2017 20:23 (seven years ago) link
I don't think Craig was ever really that bad....or that good either! I like that record though whatever it is..
― saer, Monday, 9 January 2017 20:30 (seven years ago) link
I just associate him with workmanlike tech-house but I'll give this one a go.
― Matt DC, Monday, 9 January 2017 20:31 (seven years ago) link
Its always felt like theres been a potato element to Craig's sound can't argue with that
― saer, Monday, 9 January 2017 20:40 (seven years ago) link
still dont know what the one following the rudiman in evan baggs one is though - or those two in the jane fitz one that are still hiding in the hedgerow
― saer, Monday, 9 January 2017 20:42 (seven years ago) link
this week's (#559) is incredible
you know with a beard like that dude isn't here to fuck around

holy shit y'all Alan Howarth (who collaborated w/ John Carpenter for a bunch of 80s film scores) did an RA mix and it's like all atmospheric 80s John Carpenter music?? WOW
― Fluffy Saint-Bernard (Stevie D(eux)), Wednesday, 15 February 2017 14:35 (seven years ago) link
The recent Egyptrixx one was great, the first half especially.
― change display name (Jordan), Wednesday, 15 February 2017 15:01 (seven years ago) link
I found the Ivkovic one very meandering and quite flat footed in a lot of places but its best moments were incredible.
My dumb New Year's resolution was to listen to all 52 of these this year, and the Mark Barott and Moscoman mixes have been the real keepers so far.
