In our latest film in the series, RA asks the DJ, producer, graffiti artist and urban explorer to play us three cuts.

It's no mystery where Adam Mitchell's steely techno sound comes from. As a teenager, he spent his days tagging trains in New York's subway system, a dark and sprawling network of tunnels that still inspires him today. Things got heavy after a while—by the end of the '80s he was the most-wanted graffiti artist in New York—but music offered him a way out. Some 20 years later, he says without hesitation that, "techno saved my life."
