A second edition of our summer playlist inspired by tropical paradises like the Caribbean. We've added 20 new tracks to last year's popular first edition, updating it as “Edition 2.” This time, we've invited numerous jazz-rooted musicians, crafting a resort-style, relaxing instrumental soundscape perfect for cooling down in the summer heat.
