Last night， I had a wet dream ‘bout the perfect song
I know， I know， I’m too far gone
Opened my eyes and forgot all of the notes
By any chance， do you know how it goes?

There’s something up with you
That I just can’t get a read on
When you walk into the room
It’s like you have a theme song

And I feel it calling me
So I might as well just do it
There ain’t nothing stopping me
It’s just

When I’m with U
It feels like music

It’s happening again
I feel the BPM， I feel the music

And usually I’m hard to please
But I feel the harmony

Mm， it’s a miracle
You’re not New York Catholic， you’re not LA spiritual
I just can’t stand when people talk like they’re a therapist
But your words sound like they come from God， I can’t compare to it
I try and it’s embarrassing . . .

And I don’t know what to do
Never gelled this well with someone
I just wanna catch up to you
And I don’t know where it comes from

But my leg is fast asleep
And there’s no way I can move it
You don’t gotta stay back for me
It’s just

When I’m with U
It feels like music

It’s happening again
I feel the BPM， I feel the music

And usually I’m hard to please
But I feel the harmony， I feel the music

It’s happening again
I feel the BPM， I feel the music

And usually I’m hard to please
But I feel the harmony

Pop rock electronic rap rock and roll
Nonstop avant-garde talking on the phone
It sound like

Pop rock electronic rap rock and roll
Bass bump supersonic won’t you take me home？ 
It sound like

Pop rock electronic rap rock and roll
Nonstop avant-garde talking on the phone
It sound like

Pop rock electronic rap rock and roll
Bass bump supersonic won’t you take me？ 

It’s everything， it’s everything to me
It’s everything， it’s everything to me
It’s everything， it’s everything to me
Everything to me

When I’m with U
It feels like music

It’s happening again

When I’m with U
It feels like music

I feel the BPM

These are 45 minutes from our B2B that was recorded on June 28th 2025. This was a very special one, it was our first time B2B'ing but also the first time Katie/Localuva had ever done that altogether. Glad we got to make this happen. Definitely need to make this happen again.

THROW IT BACK (BOSSMAN DLOW x SEXYY RED GHETTO GABBER EDIT) FREE DL

Five days, five mixes. RA.999 launches with two of the 2020's most exciting techno producers tearing a portal to the future.

When it comes to purveyors of contemporary hardgroove, it's hard to top 1morning and Regal86. The duo have emerged from a buzzy, and decidedly funk-oriented techno scene on the American West Coast, repping Los Angeles and Monterrey respectively. Bound by a shared love of old-school flair and intuition behind the decks, you'll often find Regal86 ditching headphones altogether in favour of studying waveforms in real time, while 1morning's vinyl-only sets are steered by the movements of the dance floor and the fire in his heart.

So it comes as no surprise that we had to invite them back in session. In the last week before we celebrate the 1000th RA Podcast, we'll drop five back-to-backs over the course of the week. From the NYC Downlow to Berlin's Bar25, what unifies this cohort is a sense that they capture where dance music has been—and crucially, where it's going.

Kicking off the week, we have this exclusive recording from the duo's co-headline show at New York's Bossa Nova Civic Club—the "extra special" final stop of their recent US tour. As the first instalment of RA.999, this one-hour set makes a strong case for what it means to achieve ultimate freedom in the booth.

Regal86 and 1morning might be known for their raw, swung techno explorations, but here, their more sensual leanings carry the most impact. You'll find hardgroove's very own daddy Ben Sims, Paul Mac's 2002 melodic beauty Struggling Event and the lavish stomp of Percy X's As Is. And, of course, it wouldn't be a Regal86 and 1morning linkup without a healthy dose of Mexico City rising star—and the former's frequent sparring partner—1OO1O.

But really, this mix proves just how perceptive the two are. It opens a portal into the beating heart of groove-first techno, masterfully flowing between impulse and restraint, tradition and modernity. And who are we to resist?
