What is it all about? It’s been about five years since I last put together a music compilation. Back in high school and during my uni years this was my main form of self-expression — a way to show (or maybe sound out?) whatever mood I was in at the time. In recent years, I’ve been more of a listener — taking things in rather than putting things out. This time wasn’t something I planned, either but rather a realization during a run. A few years ago, I started running longer distances regularly — and it often made me think about how much long-distance running (or even long bike rides, horse gallops, or any repetitive motion) can feel like an electronic music mix: you never really know what’s coming next, and just when you think you’ve experienced it all, something totally unexpected hits you. That feeling pushed me to put together a few tracks that have inspired or moved me in some way — songs I’ve listened to on repeat while running.
