~ sonic ritual ~ (playlists) ~

Although I'm not a Dj or a musician, I've been asked to post/list my TOP 10 picks as long as I can remember.
Listening is what I do best. As well as my overwhelming need for fresh, nourishing and inspiring music,
what I call my medecine, I also have a great need to share the "crème de la crème" of my collection with
all who care enough to listen carefully, travel in their imaginations, appreciate the experience, support these
artists and share these sacred sounds with others ... So finally, for all who asked ... here it is !
spread the good word and above all... ENJOY !!!

p.s. I will attempt to make this a monthly listing but too busy to make any promises.

p.p.s. Since this listing/ritual began only in May 2002, I thought it difficult to backtrack through too many favorites of the past, so I will eventually add some classics here from the past few years (some forgotten gems included) :) and in all fairness, listing them alphabetically, as filed in my own collection ...
... coming soon :D
