The idea is presenting a weekly random playlist of songs with commentary, and no specific ties to decade, genre, popularity, or anything else. Mostly from the world of rock and pop, but occasionally venturing into other musical genres when the urge strikes. Something to keep me occupied and out of trouble…

S4; Episode 11 - In Search Of...
This week we stay true to the mission that’s defined Random Song Encounters from day one: the ongoing hunt for the best rock‑and‑roll‑rooted music from the past, present, and future. Season 4; Episode 11 is all about that pursuit — the curiosity, the digging, the thrill of finding something that hits you just right.
“In Search Of…” brings fifteen mind‑boggling tracks to the surface, each one chosen to spark that familiar jolt of discovery. Eight decades of sound, countless branches of rock’s evolution, all stitched together into a set list built for immersion, exploration, and pure enjoyment.
As summer winds down and the show keeps building steam, we’re grateful to have you along for the ride. More than 2,400 different songs have made their way into the RSE universe, and we’re nowhere near done. Thank you for listening, for sharing the good stuff, and for being part of this weekly trek.
Enjoy the music. Enjoy whatever the week brings. We’ll be back next time — still searching, still discovering, still bringing the good stuff forward.

S4; Episode 10 - Fresh Tracks
Random Song Encounters Season 4, Episode 10 — Fresh Tracks
Season 4, Episode 10 arrives right as September fades into the rearview. It’s been a mad month — juggling travel, podcast prep, and the weekly commitment to keep RSE rolling strong — but the trek was worth it. This week’s title, Fresh Tracks, captures that feeling perfectly.
Like a tracker in the wilderness spotting new prints in the dirt, we’ve spent the month searching for musical clues across nearly eight decades of sound. Each discovery leads somewhere new, somewhere unexpected, somewhere worth exploring.
Thanks for checking in every week, for the feedback, for the suggestions, and for spreading the word about our little podcast that could. Enjoy the week, share the good stuff, and dive into Episode 10.
