A playlist of groove, attitude and storytelling.
The opener, The Philharmonik – Which Side You're On, sets the tone: a solid beat, a warm bassline, a voice asking questions more serious than they first seem. It's the kind of track that gets your head nodding while making you wonder which side you're actually on, musically and in life.
From there, I wanted to keep that energy going by switching between several moods, so the playlist stays alive without losing its thread.
Old-school hip-hop & rap with character
You'll run into Redman & Method Man, alongside more modern but still hard-hitting productions. The idea is to keep that "banger" feel without tipping into noise for noise's sake.
Electro and bass music that hits without frying your brain
Tracks like DJ Fresh – Dibby Dibby Sound or deeper reworks bring club energy, but with enough finesse to stay listenable in the background while you work or code.
Indie gems and carefully crafted visuals
Bands like half•alive, SIAMÉS or I DONT KNOW HOW BUT THEY FOUND ME bring a more alternative touch, with music videos and visualizers that matter just as much as the music itself.
A soundtrack for coding, creating… or just drifting along
I built this playlist as a flexible backdrop: put it on to code or work, discover new artists, or just chill.
- Coding or working: a lot of tracks have a rhythmic but non-aggressive energy, perfect for staying in the flow.
- Discovering new artists: the idea isn't to stack only hits, but also names you don't see everywhere.
- Just chilling: some tracks ease off the tempo, just enough to breathe between two heavy basslines.
This isn't an "algorithm" playlist, it's a hand-curated one, where every track has its own little reason for being there: a bassline, a chorus that sticks, a video that leaves a mark, or just a groove you can't ignore.
The idea is simple: a selection built to keep the energy up without losing the narrative thread. Enough texture to keep you awake, enough coherence to never lose you.
