Un présentateur qui “oublie” de se présenter (je pense que je n’ai pas encore ressenti le “besoin” de citer mon prénom à l’antenne).

Long story, short: I arrived in Luxembourg, a bit by chance, back in early 1986. The intention was to hang around for about 6 months. Almost 40 years later….still here! From a musical point of view, I am a bit of a child of the 80s, but my playlists span different decades and, pretty much, all musical genres. I like nothing better than discovering something new and unusual. There are so many great “indie” bands around, the possibilities are endless! On the other hand, rediscovering a long lost track from my youth is also a real joy.
