Junior Jack - Thrill Me (Riva Starr Remix)

Gate 5

The Berlin based, Ukrainian duo of E.Lina and Annyrock have been making their way through a serious amount of parties in recent years. From gracing the decks at Berlin’s finest raves to heading off on their combined travels, this pair of artists are a force to be reckoned with when in solo mode but when side by side they demand attechtion. Having starred at the recent Amsterdam Dance Event parties that included VBX, SlapFunk and of course our own party at Hoppetosse back in April. 

It was of course only a matter of time before we just had to get E.Lina and Annyrock in for our InSession series. Combining club-ready sounds that straddle punchy house, ethereal acid, and a smattering of atmospheric techno. We can guarantee that you will be seeing and hearing a lot more from this duo in the coming months and years, and with a mix as great as this it is clear to see why.

Part two of RA.999: two NYC Downlow favourites go back-to-back for the first time with a jubilant homage to classic house.

The RA Podcast launched 19 years ago in 2006, making it one of the world's longest-running online mix series. As we gear up to celebrate the 1,000th episode, RA.999 lands with five mixes across five days with a cohort of artists who've left a singular mark on electronic music over the past few decades. The chemistry and legacy of these duos make for something very special—and worthy of such a huge milestone.

First up was 1morning and Regal86 with a live recording from New York's Bossa Nova. Next up? We move to NYC Downlow, and who better to capture Glastonbury's beloved queer utopia than Prosumer and Peach, going back-to-back for the first time.

If house is your thing, then Prosumer and Peach going one-for-one on the decks is nothing short of a treat. With Glastonbury still just about in the rearview mirror, this mix captures the spirit of NYC Downlow. If you're familiar, you'll know this means steamy euphoria all-night long, sweat dripping from the ceiling and an intoxicating feeling in the humid air.

And Prosumer is a true Downlow darling—a treasured custodian and storyteller of dance music who delivered his first RA Podcast way back in 2007. "If a record doesn't move me emotionally or physically, I won't play it out," he said at the time, befitting of the impeccable curation and irresistible body groove that became his trademarks. He is, in the words of the Johnny Dangerous track in the mix, the "King of Clubs."

For Peach, RA.999 marks a full-circle moment: Prosumer's 2019 closing set in the Downlow is one of her all-time Glastonbury memories. Since her first RA Podcast in 2021, the London-based artist has only grown more in-demand, with sets that typically traverse the house and techno lexicon—and occasionally R&B—with a distinctly peppy energy. "Neither of us are afraid to go deep," she said about playing with Prosumer. "We just had fun with it."

reflex blue is behind the buttons for the podcast this week. A celebrated producer and DJ hailing from Naarm/Melbourne and now based in London, he’s fast becoming a household name, propelled by a versatile range of productions on the likes of Limousine Dream, Kalahari Oyster Cult and Slapfunk Records.

DIM321 finds reflex blue is full swing, stretching his long legs across 140 thoroughly enjoyable minutes. Classy house expertly punctuated either side by downtempo and faster techno / progressive inspired sounds.

Catch him playing live at Barbs this summer on Saturday night.

Part four of RA.999: the sound of shared history, courtesy of two legends of minimal house in full flow.

A lot can happen in 20 years. Especially in dance music, where movements rise, collide and dissolve at dizzying speed. It takes conviction, dynamism and a formidable record collection to stay the course.

That’s why Margaret Dygas and Sonja Moonear have remained such enduring underground favourites. Step into one of their sets, solo or side by side, and an assured calm takes over the floor. You're in the sleekest, safest hands imaginable.

Recorded live at fabric's 25th birthday, their RA.999 captures that feeling perfectly. High-tempo, irresistibly groovy and full of quiet authority, it marks a return to the series for both: Moonear with RA.520, and Dygas with the fourth-ever RA Podcast all the way back in 2006.

They also gave rare interviews, reflecting on a deep musical connection that began in 2007, the legacy of minimal and lessons from a life spent in DJ booths the world over. 

"I felt excited and lucky to be invited so early in what I now see as a much longer journey," wrote Dygas. "Music holds memories in its frequencies, and the right track can transport you instantly to a past version of yourself. That’s powerful. That’s the kind of power I respect." Amen.
