I was back in Braamfontein, shaking off the dust of uncertainty, with the singular focus of diving deep into my studies and hitting my stride. My journey back to form wasn't just about books and lectures; it was about reconnecting—with myself, with my city, and with the rhythm of life that had been missing for so long.

Two of my closest friends, Mocha and Jay, came through to visit. It wasn’t just a catch-up; it was a celebration of the ordinary—a spontaneous gathering filled with belly laughs, shared memories, and the kind of music that makes time feel irrelevant. This playlist was born from that moment when the speaker came to life under my watch.

The music I shared that day wasn't random; it was a curated mix of the sounds that kept me grounded and hopeful. I was exploring new artists, diving into fresh sounds that pushed my boundaries, while also pulling back the curtain on some nostalgic tracks that took us back to simpler times. Each song was a thread in the tapestry of that day—a day we fondly dubbed the beginning of 'Season 2.'

Reality was a concept we didn't fully grasp then, but it didn't matter. We were here, in the now, making sense of life in our own way. Maybe that was the beauty of it—embracing the chaos, finding solace in the soundtrack of our lives. The optimism was palpable, a shared energy that reminded us to live, to love, and to laugh just a little louder.

So here it is—August 28, 2020. A playlist born out of laughter, friendship, and the promise of a new beginning. Play it loud, feel every beat, and stay sound, my friends.
