1. GusGus – Fuel
“I highlighted many introspective songs for this selection, this is one of my favorites. I love to just lay down, close my eyes, and feel it.”
2. Xinobi – Morangos
“Love the dreamy melodies and pads. Really nice to listen at home or even on a run/walk outside.”
3. Terranova – Let It Fail feat. Sifa & Ivory
“I’ve played this beauty in some of my sunrise sets, it always hits the spot.”
4. Fideles – Seven Days
“This one is from a few years ago, I love the simplicity of the driving bassline, the chords, and the breakbeat.”
5. Emanuel Satie & DJ T. – The Feeling
“One of my top summer tunes from 2023…will definitely put you in a good summer mood.”
6. Dino Lenny – I’ve Learned That (Jonathan Kaspar Remix)
“Another favorite that was released this year…a beautiful tune from Dino Lenny, who wrote the inspiring lyrics to communicate to his daughter, about his learnings on life. Such a beauty…and this remix has been so fun to play in a few sets this year.”
7. Aril Brikha – Winter
“This is a very old one that I go back to often. It’s cosmic and addicting.”
8. RY X – Dark Room Dancing (Eagles & Butterflies Remix)

9. Architectural – Why Do I Still Sleep
“Great introspective track for some end of year reflection, as it always puts me in a hopeful mood.”
10. Unkle – In a State
“This is one of my obsessions. The piano, guitar riff…it’s just truly a journey of a song. And also I think it’s fitting for the end of the year, as the lyrics highlight the need for change, and embracing new perspectives.”
