Paperback Writers - Stephen King


PAPERBACK WRITERS - STEPHEN KING (320kbs-m4a/137mb/60mins)

BBC Radio 6 Music broadcast: 8th October 2025

In this very special show, Stephen King, one of the world's biggest selling authors, chooses his favourite songs and talks about what they mean to him; from his love of AC/DC to appearing on stage with John Cougar Mellencamp, his running buddy.

Stephen King has sold over 350 million copies of his books, many of which have been made into films and TV series. As well as his love of literature, Stephen also owns three radio stations in the U.S. and is a huge music fan. Over this hour, he plays a selection of tracks from his record collection and tells us the stories behind them.

His latest book is a thrilling new collection of short stories called the Bazaar Of Bad Dreams.

There's a curio for every reader – a man who keeps reliving the same life, repeating the same mistakes over and over, a firework competition between neighbours which reaches an explosive climax, a columnist who kills people by writing their obituaries or a poignant tale about the end of the human race.

Spinal Tap II On Radio 2


SPINAL TAP II ON RADIO 2 (320kbs-m4a/130mb/57mins)

BBC Radio 2 broadcast: 7th September 2025

This Is Spinal Tap is regularly voted as one of the greatest comedy films of all time in critic and audience polls, and in Spinal Tap II – The End Continues, the ageing rock gods are required to return to the stage one more time because of an old contractual obligation.

Presented by Shaun Keaveny, in-character, the main cast of Christopher Guest, Harry Shearer, Michael McKean and Rob Reiner take us though the perils of growing old in a modern music business and reveal some of their hair-brained schemes to find contentment away from the band.

We have a romp through famous scenes from the original movie and from the sequel as Nigel Tufnel, David St Hubbins, and Derek Smalls frankly express their opinions of guest musicians Sir Elton John and Sir Paul McCartney featured in the new film. Jarvis Cocker, Sting, Johnny Marr and others express their admiration for the band and their influence.

British cast members Chris Addison, Nina Conti and Kerry Godliman give voice to their Tap experience making the sequel.

Exclusively for Radio 2, each Spinal Tap member reveals the music from across three centuries that has inspired or comforted them, both as children and in the topsy turvy world of Rock 'n' Roll.

A Foghorn Production for BBC Radio 2.

NUMERO GROUP (MIXED BY ROB SEVIER) - OFF THE RECORD MIX SERIES #58 (257kbs-m4a/111mb/60mins)

Phonica Records podcast: 10th September 2025

For this edition of Off The Record, we're honored to host a mix from Rob Sevier, co-founder of the legendary archival label Numero Group. Known for its meticulous approach to uncovering and reissuing lost gems across soul, funk, punk, ambient, and beyond, Numero has earned its place as a gold standard for crate diggers and curious listeners alike. Sevier, a tireless researcher and selector, brings that same curatorial depth to his exclusive mix—a deep dive into self-released and small-label funk-adjacent singles from Ohio, Texas, Michigan, and Georgia. Alongside the mix, we caught up with him to talk DJing in hidden corners of Japan, the joys of non-allegiance to any one digging method, and what's next for one of the most important archival projects in music.

Andrew Weatherall - Phonica Mix Series #21


ANDREW WEATHERALL - PHONICA MIX SERIES #21 (257kbs-m4a/129mb/70mins)

Phonica Records podcast: 3rd February 2016

February has arrived and we've decided to go with something a little different for episode 21 of the Phonica Mix Series. Andrew Weatherall is a legend of the UK music scene and also one of our regulars here at the shop. We've always considered him to have a finely tuned ear and he loves to dig for music across all genres and styles. We always wanted him to contribute to the series and this month's episode is one of the most original submissions we've had as it doesn't contain a single track of House & Techno which is arguably the main sound our shop has become associated with. There isn't much that hasn't already been said about this legendary producer, DJ and master remixer so we've decided to let the music do the talking here. Down below you'll find an eclectic mix that includes everything from slow-mo Patrick Cowley cuts to afro rhythms from William Onyeabor and mid 80's cold wave from Nagamatzu. Full tracklist down below and since this is Andrew's 'Phonic-a-delic (A Trip Through the Back Wall)' mix, you'll find that all of these records were selected from the back wall of phonica and some are still in stock! Enjoy!

Patrick Cowley - Cat's Eye
Los Gaiteros De San Jacinto - Fuego De Cumbia Dub De Sangre Pura
Roland P. Young - Moon & Stars
Savant - Stationary Dance
William Onyeabor - Ride On Baby
Youth Stand Up - Ave Wo Nane
Youth Stand Up - Come With Me
Boots For Dancing - South Pacific
Patrick Cowley - 50oz Of Funk
Savant - Facility
General Strike - Parts Of My Body
Owiny Sigoma Band - Nyanza Night

Helena Hauff - Resident Advisor RA.1000 Mix


HELENA HAUFF - RESIDENT ADVISOR RA.1000 MIX (320kbs/242mb/1hr46mins)

Resident Advisor podcast: 13th August 2025

When Helena Hauff made her first RA Podcast appearance back in 2013, she was on the eve of releasing her debut production, Actio Reactio, on Actress' Werkdiscs imprint. In the 12 years that have elapsed since, she's become not just a household name within electronic music, but the kind of rare talent that lives in impenetrable seclusion from industry tumult.

(Hauff, enviously, has never even owned a smartphone.)

Her calling card was and continues to be her penchant for rough and ready EBM, electro and new wave, recorded straight to tape. And while her selections are seemingly untethered to the trend cycles that dominate popular dance music culture, they have staying power. Her unique ability is creating a singular listening experience from otherwise disparate or out-of-favour tracks, with a raw immediacy that functions as a redress to overly-choreographed modern DJing.

The Hamburg icon showcases her outsider approach to selection once again in her mix for RA.1000. Threaded together by strobe-lit DIY electronica, old-school acid house and corrosive machine funk that chews up the ear, the nearly two-hour set pulls music from modern producers while explicitly nodding to electronic music's history.

In the sci-fi themed first half, Hauff drops not one but two Cybotron tracks, nodding to Juan Atkins' blueprint for the world of electro. You'll also hear "Riot" from Underground Resistance, the definitive mission statement for the Motor City techno collective for a world ablaze. Here, Hauff raises the bar once again, demonstrating how these songs and their sentiments continue to resonate through the ages. This is musical anarchism executed to the highest degree. -  Chloe Lula

DJ Harvey & Andrew Weatherall - Resident Advisor RA.1000 Mix


DJ HARVEY & ANDREW WEATHERALL - RESIDENT ADVISOR RA.1000 MIX (320kbs/882mb/6hrs25mins)

Resident Advisor podcast: 14th August 2025

Find out more about RA.1000 with DJ Harvey & Andrew Weatherall and listen to all RA mixes from RA.001 to RA.1000 in our archives: 1000.ra.co

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 RA Podcast's 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 whose immaculate decor and imposing atmosphere was already considered legendary long before it shuttered its doors in the opening hours of 2015. As part of a series anchored around start-to-close combinations, RA finally put these two peers together in the booth. 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.

Although a serial collaborator in the studio, he didn't actually play too many b2b sets either, preferring to sail the open seas by his own navigation. What follows is 385 minutes of arpeggiated chug and slow-cresting climaxes, chronicling a moment when the resting heart rate of dance floors plunged lower than potentially any comparable point in the 21st century. It's a curiously under-acknowledged wrinkle in the timeline that makes some of the more headstrong RA.1000s (Sama', Theo Parrish, Jyoty) seem as if they've been beamed in from another artistic medium entirely.

If you've got time to spare, a fun side game is sussing out who's playing what. Take the goosebumps-inducing slide into a disco-dub cover of Echo & the Bunnymen's "The Killing Moon"? Smart money's on Weatherall. Exuberant EQ'ing of the comically overripe bass on The Isley Brothers' "Live It Up, Pts. 1 & 2"? 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. The pair putter around the 100 BPM range for so long that nudging up to 127 by the double encore feels practically like flooring it down the highway.

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. We sought to render an accurate picture of DJ culture in 2025 for posterity, and get arms around some of the key storylines in the decade since we went 5 for RA.500. Who broke big? What could you pull off at peak time today than you'd struggle to make land then? And what memories do we hold more fondly as time has gone on?

DJing and the spectacle around it has undergone a quantum leap since 2012, let alone 2006, 1996 or 1989. It's a scarcely-recognisable scene. 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.

Yet a sense of accomplishment is bundled within that melancholy. Appreciation, too. 1000 episodes is great innings, and we're thankful for every contributor and facilitator who built this series, week by week, mix by mix. Where will DJ sets—or any of this—be in 2044? Hard to say; best not to overthink that one. Instead, enjoy luxuriating in the company of two of the greatest to ever do it, together, for the first and last time.⁠ - Gabriel Szatan

BBC Radio 6 Music broadcast: 29th August 2025

Jonnie Wilkes, one half of Glasgow duo Optimo, salutes his DJ partner of nearly 30 years Keith McIvor aka JD Twitch.

The duo founded the legendary Glasgow night Optimo (Espacio) at the city's much loved Sub Club, a night that was well known for its sense of freedom and eclectic sounds. The night went on to build a strong reputation for its expansive music selections becoming one of Scotland's most popular club nights, and once the night ended the duo went on to DJ at festivals and gigs around the world for over 28 years.

In May this year Keith was diagnosed with an untreatable brain tumor, and to celebrate their decades long partnership, Jonnie is behind this edition of the Salutes mix centered around the joy of the DJ partnership they forged.
