Travel through music with our Spotify playlists
It goes without saying that music is often our biggest means of escape. Our favourite tracks have the power to elevate us, comfort us, and transport us elsewhere entirely. One song can define a whole holiday… and then take you straight back to it, years afterwards.
So, we’ve created Spotify playlists that capture our favourite travel destinations. From the dance floors of Detroit, to the nightclubs of Nigeria, they’ll will hopefully help you explore the world, without even leaving your living room.

From Mykonos to Kyoto, explore some of the best travel destinations around the world with our favourite indie tracks.

In the words of the legendary producer Larry Heard, “house music is a universal language, spoken and understood by all.” We couldn’t agree more. From Detroit to Auckland, these tracks bring parties together.

Nigerian music from the late-70s and 80s has seen a huge resurgence over the last few years – we put it down to the fact it’s some of the happiest, and liveliest music ever made. Never heard it? Dance outside of your comfort zone with this collection of mostly West African funk, disco and soul floor fillers.

This all-American country playlist is full of deep Southern drawls, belting ballads, and tender odes to country roads.

We made a selection of popular Brazilian music to transport you from your balcony, to the balmy beaches of Rio – caipirinha in hand. Think jazz, samba, and a whole lot of soulful Portuguese vocals.

Pop music sang in Mandarin, and China’s biggest musical export. This playful top 20 bursts with hope and optimism – a gift from our office in Singapore.
