The idea behind this mix was to create a soundtrack for intergalactic lesbian warriors. A parallel scenario with android women out of Wong Kar-Wai's film: 2046. Finding each other in dance, sensuality and psychedelia.

The sun was rising and people were starting to get closer to the dance floor as I was starting to play the first songs. 

The atmosphere was just perfect... Good vibes, beautiful people, a flawless sunrise and that feeling of togetherness that music triggers... 

As I was standing behind the decks and watching this moment, I was saying to myself: remember this moment, remember this people, remember this feeling...! 

There are not so many places anymore, where you breathe such a unique and joyful atmosphere. And I believe that a big part of that is thanks to all the hard work, dedication and love brought together from the entire team to achieve this purpose... Making this place a safe place for everyone. To enjoy themselves, to dance to the music and simply be who they are!

Thanks for letting me be part of this! For many more!

For RA.1000, we take it back to the source with two never-before-heard tapes from Frankie Knuckles's private collection

There is no house music without Frankie Knuckles, literally or figuratively. The queer icon's luxurious DJ sets at Chicago's Warehouse gave a rising movement its name. From there, countless offshoots splintered and travelled the globe. But what did the genesis and growth of the sound really feel like?

The Godfather of House left behind not only timeless records, but personalised cassettes with hand-drawn liner notes handed out to friends and family. Two of those, dated to 1989 and 1996, have been digitised especially for RA.1000. (Thank you to the Frankie Knuckles Foundation.)

To put that in context: the first tape predates not only many of today's active clubbers, but the entire existence of jungle, drum & bass, UK garage, French touch, Jersey club, Afrobeats, IDM, baile funk, hardcore, footwork, dubstep, dub techno, tech house, breaks, minimal, maximal, gqom, gabber, grime and hyperpop.

In short… that's a very, very long time ago. The world of dance music was much smaller. DJ culture was functionally unrecognisable from the one we see in 2025. 

And yet, to some degree, what you'll hear on RA.1000 hasn't changed at all. It's a capture of not only what made Frankie Knuckles one of the beloved pioneers of first-generation dance music, but what draws people to club culture in the first place.

The mood on these Frankie Knuckles sets outlasts even its creator: a spirit of optimism that floods the world's best dance floors and keeps dance music pulsing on into the future, nearly 40 years later, in spite of it all. We end our 1000th mix celebrations here because it all starts there.
