commendation for outstanding service to human race: resident advisor

Harvey!

HARVEY. Can't wait until tonight when I get a chance to listen to this!

oh, ive not listened to an RA podcast in forever but im downloading this now. yas.

I probably listen to like 3-4 podcasts a year. This will likely be one of them.

boiler room > FACT mixes > RA

i didn't like this harvey mix that much :/

are RA podcasts still 160kpbs?

not listening to dance music at that bitrate at all

But you'll listen to it on Youtube?

are RA podcasts still 160kpbs?

ha

soooooooo glad this wasn't another "here's some DISCO for ya, kids" mix. it's quite a trip right? listened to it LOUD while tidying the house last night. djhistory and RA forum reactions are quite funny.

it gets pretty good after 30 mins or so, but i was a bit disappointed at first too. i guess it helps to know what you're getting yourself into

this is so good. Noisy and excellent and when it get's going it really does.

excellent retrospective on donna summer by notable ilxor a. soto on RA: http://www.residentadvisor.net/feature.aspx?1611

UNTOLD

The new Robert Hood one is a complete thumper. Really bangin' stuff.

Heard some negative reports about it elsewhere.

wow a sagittariun mix is ... something else

i know it's really corny to be like ... this mix is supposed to take you on a journey maaaaaaan ... but this mix does!

yea in theory this progression of styles seems less than inspiring but the execution is pretty rewarding. i listened the first time without a tracklist or having read the writeup and might recommend others do the same? it's nice to just kinda jump in without knowing where things are headed

Todd L. Burns apparently stepping down as editor at the end of the year. Curious as to who will - and who can - replace him.

Interesting... a site re-design is probably overdue anyway.

The newish Mayer poddie is very well executed, as per usual.

BANGING

liking this new pearson sound one a lot too

Hugely enjoyable Terry Farley interview. I could listen to him bang on about the Brit house season forever http://www.residentadvisor.net/podcast-episode.aspx?exchange=184

So any thoughts on the re-design? They seem to have ditched the forums which seems like an oversight (although the bell ends who populated them won't be missed).

i'm trying to track down three of RA's old podcasts and i can't seem to find them anywhere. would anyone have one of the following and be willing to upload them somewhere?
RA 140 - Pivot
RA 159 - Manuel Tur
RA 176 - Arto Mwambe

not downloadable, and not the highest quality:

http://www.mixesdb.com/w/2009-10-12_-_Arto_Mwambe_-_Resident_Advisor_(RA.176)

I have the Arto mwambe one, could email it.

found an old external hd that might have those on it, but can't find the adapter :-/

thanks ! this is well appreciated.

like the new design, long overdue. kode9 mix was pretty banging to boot

ah actually that link isn't working for me millmeister
@or something: if it's not a problem yeah it'd be great if you could mail it to me (ilxmail should work)

no problem. i can't see how to put an attachment in ilxmail tho?

oh yeah. so you can mail me at charles.ridon50 at gmail.com

this article is epic. anyone know more about this genre or the label? little if anything on ilx about either one.

some of this music seems kind of thrilling, like dj jesse's pimp my ragga. the label's whole soundcloud page is pretty interesting.

https://soundcloud.com/principepromos i dig it , nice scene. will play at home.

yeah; it's good stuff. i'm especially digging the chilled-out vibe from this track from an act called niagara (the song is cobras).

RA has no more credibility on dance music

general feeling or specific event?

I really think some of the reviews are getting increasingly poorly written.

too much ambient / experimental / zzzzzzz

strange how often this kind of mission creep sets in

wondering what the straw that broke late great's back was
