Closing the River Stage on a Saturday night is notoriously difficult. Walking the tightrope between being too hard and not being energetic enough is one that even the most experienced DJs have found tricky, even at the best of times. Enter: Freudenthal.

One of the most devastating dark-disco voices of a generation, it was the sculpture he built from rare and unreleased records along with Italo-hits that had that dance floor rammed from corner to corner when he finished at 4am. It was a true masterclass in river music. 

With his genuine humility and infectious energy, Tommy Freudenthal was one of the best bookings of our first decade - and the evidence is now here for all to hear!

So... you have stumbled upon THE collection; a selective plethora of attentively chosen and meticulously appointed tracks that have enchanted the very stream of my soul's consciousness. Tracks that bring vibes that penetrate my spirit are each placed here, to be discovered again, within THE collection of thriving playlists! These are the tunes I dig, have fancied the most, and have influenced vibes within me on some other level, at some moment of time. 

I have found these tracks to be relevant at times throughout my adventures in life, and most have partaken in many kitchen-dance-parties for one! My collecting tracks as a listener began back in 2010, launching my experience of discoveries within the realm of Soundcloud. Here, I share my carefully crafted playlists, assembled throughout the ongoing transformations of my journey from Then until Now... As well, both a long list of acquired likes that get me grooving (which will play for hours over days & weeks), and many other here-n-there, but sporadic-random reposts have piqued my curiosities. 

With this, I would like to catch your attention as your guide through these musical tastes! Although even a small nibble of these creations should be taken with a grain of salt, as not all delicacies may be to your tasting, and yet all my favourite tracks are presented here for you to sample! Each playlist has entranced me, continuing still with the initial hearing of each additional track... 

While I may have started these particular playlists only one at a time, all have since been ongoing, upkept and continued (with the best intentions of my listening and streaming habits lol.) For me, these playlists are an expression of my imagination, which is creating a personal storyline within my own mind, emerging from the linear order of 'themes' plotted throughout my life as I live it. Yet worry not, there is no particular sequence that the playlists must be listened to; you are free to experience this as your own musical journey.

Listen to what you enjoy and whatever resonates with you, if you wish. Or don't, lol. Either way, we must all keep on moving on, one way or another.

Honestly, what I enjoy most is to pick a playlist and then listen on shuffle! Each listening session is a complete new journey for me! Or another trip down memory lane!

I AM love of MUSIC
