With Africa on My Sleeve
Picture yourselves by a tranquil lake, a faint breeze, and soft rays of a setting sun caressing your beaming face… Imagine that sensation of peacefulness and lightness… All is easy like a Sunday morning (word to Lionel Richie!). That’s the setting I was in early last summer when I concocted this ‘Pure Lounge 16’ playlist....Continue reading
There’s something about salsa that has always cheered me up and infused some lightness in me. Here, I have compiled some of my favourites classics and I hope that, wherever you are while listening to this playlist, I can get you dancing or (at the very least) be filled with the same effervescence that I...Continue reading
Let us recall the idea behind this playlist series: no rules, just get in zone, and pick what sticks to your mind at the time. You can go back to my last (!)…two (!) contributions to know that I put a bit more thought into it and this here is no different. Here I was...Continue reading
Let me do my best and not sololiquize about what was done here. The fifteenth edition of LMDE series is all about the bringing the heat (in human connection) and its effects.

That’s why I’m releasing three in quick succession. Just as its predecessor (and the next drop in the series), “Pure...Continue reading
To celebrate another year passing by and letting go (if only for a few hours) of the difficulties that have characterized 2021, I wanted to push this new edition of Pure Lounge to near overload. That’s why I’m releasing three in quick succession. “Pure Lounge 13” and its two successors were inspired by the serenity...Continue reading
I would like to dedicate this playlist to the friends I’ve made around The Buck Stop. Let me explain… This one friend of mine said I shouldn’t be putting out playlists on Fridays as they should be reserved for new releases. So I let this one out as a major side-eye and to let him...Continue reading
If, like me, you’ve been enduring dreary weather in the western hemisphere, the abundance of sunshine we now get has been a relief and a delight.
