In these trying and turbulent times, music can act as a great source of escapism and emancipation.

Melting Pot - Vol 215 offers oodles of new musical goodness from N'Sawa-Saraca featuring Raphael Sebbag (Ropeadope Records | USA | Jazz), SoulBrigada (Agogo Records | Germany | Funk/Soul/Edits), Koichi Sakai & Afla Sackey (Olindo Records | UK | Highlife), Krewcial (Midnight Riot Records | UK | Gospel/Disco) and Ben Hauke featuring Joe Armon-Jones (YAM Records | UK | Downtempo House).

And if that wasn't all, a pair of peerless edits and remixes from JR.Dynamite (Australia) and Bosq (USA/Colombia) add a touch of tropical paradise to proceedings.
