"I actually made this mix as a way to compile all the music that I'd been running to lately. Over the summer I signed up for the New York Marathon and while most might train to more aggressive music I found that a mellow mix suits me a lot better. I wanted to make a mix that reflected those runs by focusing more on flow than having the rarest tunes. I had a blast making it and was even able to listen to it during the big race this past weekend. And while the mix couldn't save me from paralyzing leg cramps around the halfway point it was a great soundtrack to my 15 minute stay in the medical tent.  I hope you enjoy this mix as much as I had making and running to it." - @enterthelloyd

The common ground of early 2000’s progressive and trancy sounds of house music serves as the foundation and inspiration for the birth of Soft Bites (Modah & DJ Estrella). It's a seemless blend of tomorrow's peaktime productions paired with the lush and dreamy proggyness of yesterday. Add to that a dash of Ibiza's ecstatic sunrise scene, and you're in for a deep ride through the neverending cycle of escapist club music.

Soft Bites is the duo project of Copenhagen DJs and producers Modah and DJ Estrella. Modah is co-owner of record label TRTLNCK and has played every venue known to Copenhagernes creating profound dancefloor experiences for the past decade. Beside music, DJ Estrella has been a keen nightlife activist with KFP, Et Andet Sted, Ved Siden Af and Loophole Magazine, as well as hosting monthly podcast on nightlife music and activism.

30 Minute Break [Ep 1.5]

Recorded live at Brussels festival Listen, the veteran talks about leading the birth of acid techno and the sound of proto-techno in Belgium.

At the turn of the '90s, Belgium was under the twin influences of early techno and '80s new beat. It was artists like CJ Bolland who helped usher these two sounds together, bridging the low-slung sludge of bands like A Split Second and Lords of Acid with the futuristic chug of Juan Atkins, Jeff Mills and Detroit's first guard. 

Bolland grew up in Antwerp and was exposed to underground music from his parents, who owned a club. Eventually beginning to produce himself, he helped create the early acid rave sound that would take over Europe. He signed to then-powerhouse label R&S Records with his career-defining single, "Horsepower," in 1991, and from there embarked on a prolific touring career.

In this Exchange, he talks to RA's senior producer Chloe Lula live from Listen Festival in Brussels, diving deep into Belgium's unique musical landscape and his thoughts on how it's evolved in response to its position between major techno hubs like The Netherlands and France. A massive gear head, Bolland also shares his favourite tools and reflects on how the state of music-making has changed in the years since he first started his career. Listen to the episode in full.

30 Minute Break [Ep 9]

I have strep throat and recorded this mix right when my penicillin began to kick in so, naturally, it starts at 140 bpm and Fergie makes an appearance.

There are samples of Missy Elliott's "Hit 'Em Wit da Hee" in "Satisfy" by Classmatic and Lauryn Hill's "Ex-Factor" in "More Than Me" by Eliphino. Staying on a ladies of hip-hop and R&B theme, we have a Dyed Soundorom remix of Maya Jane Coles' "What They Say" (whose original is sampled in "Truffle Butter" by Nicki Minaj).

There are some classics and legends with tracks old and new; "Bird in a Gilded Cage" by Jungle Wonz (aka Marshall Jefferson), "Klubbhopping" by Klubbheads, "This Thing" by Jimpster and Rich Medina.

In honor of this week's Toro y Moi announcement of his new album Hole Erth, I've included a track by his alias Les Sins, "Fetch," which was released on Dan Snaith's (aka Caribou, Daphni) Jiaolong label. And the mix finishes with two laidback tunes that I can't stop listening to; "Lake 3" by Shinichi Atobe and "Get Back to You Soon" by Vancouver's D. Tiffany.
