I made this mix for my most recent half marathon and I’ve decided to share it! The whole mix is 136 bpm (except 3 tunes I needed to pitch up to keep the groove) with the intention of helping one to keep a steady pace. The mix is designed to get you to the finish line. It starts off with bouncy percussion to get you off the mark before entering a mixture of up beat bumpers and techy rollers to keep you in the zone. It’s a journey through many of the styles of music that I love to hear on the dance floor as its no secret that sometimes raving can feel like a marathon too! Enjoy :)

Running on the Dance floor - Half Marathon Mix 136 BPM

レーベル設立から20年以上経った今でも不動の人気を誇る名門〈Running Back〉のボスと、9年ぶりに東伊豆で邂逅する。

RDCの韓国やアムステルダム公演では、百科事典的な音楽知識に裏打ちされた唯一無二のセットでダンスフロアに熱狂をもたらし、世界のダンスミュージックシーンにおける最も信頼されるDJの1人であることを改めて証明した。彼のRDC 2026 出演を記念して、2024年に開催されたRDC in Korea のセットをシェアする。貴重なLIVE録音を聴いて当日に向けて気持ちを高めてほしい。

「ダンスフロアで最も重要なのは喜びだ」という信念のもと、ハウス、ディスコ、イタロ、ガレージといった多様なサウンドを自在に横断する彼のセットに身を委ねよう。

Over two decades after its founding, the legendary label Running Back remains an undisputed powerhouse. Its boss reunites with us in Higashi-Izu after nine years.

At RDC events in Korea and Amsterdam, his unparalleled sets were underpinned by encyclopaedic musical knowledge. Ignited the dancefloor, reaffirming his status as one of the world’s most trusted DJs in the dance music scene. To commemorate his appearance at RDC 2026, we share his set from RDC in Korea 2024. Listen to this precious live recording and get pumped for the day itself.

Surrender yourself to his sets, which effortlessly traverse diverse sounds like house, disco, Italo, and garage, guided by his belief that ‘the most important thing on the dancefloor is joy.’

GIDEÖN BBC 6 Music Pride Mix 2026

@octoocta (Maya Bouldry-Morrison) FADER Mix vibrates with the energy of radio station B96’s street mixes from the ‘90s  “The Street mix is a ‘Saturday night dance party’ mix that the hosts put together,” Octo Octa tells The FADER. “[It has] lots of radio versions, tons of quick mixing from one track to another, hard cuts that would make me yell with delight when listening to it.”

New mix on Riotvan by https://soundcloud.com/jamesaxon. Based in LA, James has become a familiar face across the US queer underground and beyond, winning over dance floors with his thoughtful selection and deep love for house and techno. As co-founder of Planet Love, a queer underground rooted in LA, community and musical curiosity are at the heart of what he does.

His Riotvan mix reflects exactly that spirit, a beautifully crafted journey through different shades of house, full of groove, emotion, and attention to detail. From start to finish, it kept a smile on our faces. Thanks, James ❤️

Chloé Caillet presents SMIILE with Roi Perez - 18 June 2026

The refreshing tides of summertime dancefloors are slowly rolling in once again. As Strawberry Fields prepares to announce its much-anticipated 2026 lineup, we thought it all too appropriate to return to the Mixmag ANZ takeover of its Beach Stage on Friday last year. 

There, DITA (@dita-putri-widyanti) takes us through a 2-hour class in carefree and considered selections, primed for moments spent daydreaming about fun in the sun. With her Strawberry appearance, her first at anything remotely doof-like, there’s an excitement in her performance that pairs perfectly with an innate understanding of what such a space should sound like.
