Topic: Freestyle

I listened to Alden Tyrell's Freesytle Mix the other day and it reignited my interest in the genre.
I know fierce little about it. Apart from some of the bigger tracks like Diamond Girl and Wild Mary, I'm pretty ignorant. Any recommendations very much welcome.

"Hey Sweden."
"They're Norwegian Mac."

Re: Freestyle

I really like Freestyle, too, and went down that road a few years back and then around late last/ early this year again. Its a bit hit or miss with this genre for me as some of it is just too eurodance-ish for me. But if it's HIT then it's such an adorable genre and can be almost as cheesy and charming as Italo and can also be super funky.

I've made a list with tracks I like, if you're still interested https://www.discogs.com/lists/Freestyle/1549456
And ofc there are obviously more, probably better freestyle lists on Discogs.

Apart from the Tyrell mix, which is great, I believe there were also some more mixes posted here in this forum. Have you made a search yet?
And I also very much like this mix from another robot. Its not just freestyle though, but does have some really nice, not so obvious gems.
