I imagine we'll get an episode per mod for the 800th MeFi podcast

December 27, 2015 8:51 PM

In honor of reaching the 500th episode of its DJ mix podcast, venerable electronic music review website and community Resident Advisor has both:

• Put all of the old episodes online for streaming, along with those for RA Exchange their electronic music discussion and interview podcast
• Assembled five different 500th episode mixes by established powerhouse DJs, and ensuring that there’s a little something for everyone…

• Innervisons co-founder Dixon, the RA community’s 2013, 2014, and 2015 DJ of the Year
• Producer and Panorama Bar Resident DJ Steffi
• Wunderkind experimental producer, Other People founder, and 2012 eclectic essential mix-maker (stream) Nicolas Jaar
• Hessle Audio co-founder Ben UFO.
• Detroit Techno specialist and FXHE records founder Omar-S

A couple personal favorites: RA 283 Tale of Us, RA 260 Matthew Burton & Kate Rathod. (what the heck genre is the latter???)

So many good ones. Awesome that the full archives are finally available.

RA 230 with Alan Howarth is tremendous.

Discogs.com has the complete list of artists, with tracklistings where available, if you like that format more than RAs own site.

Relatedly: if the dedicated link in the microsite isn’t for you -while pretty, it lacks searchability- the boring ol’ plain text list on RA’s archive page is pretty darn good. If I were a more thorough poster, I’d put up a list of the podcasts sorted by artist, but I’m not so I ain’t.

Also, I’m a big fan of Andrew Weatherall’s 470^th mix and Frank & Tony’s 446^th mix. It’s going to be a fun day at work.

Since the back-catalog went live a few days ago, I've been amusing myself by scrolling through the earlier podcasts and checking out the headshots of DJs that I know / have met in person—but now nearly 10 years earlier, when they had all their hair and looked too young to get into the clubs they play on the regular.

Really enjoying Steffi RA 500. The good parts, they're so good

I liked Nicolas Jaar’s, but was a little meh on Dixon’s. Onward!
