Every ping, every scroll, every "just one quick check"—it's stealing your future.

Tenho um problema sério em escutar música que não gosto por um período prolongado de tempo.

Tipo aquelas playlists para te ajudar concentrar e ter foco... Só tive decepção.

Aí me veio a vontade de pesquisar algumas músicas que são envolventes, instrumentais, e nenhuma letra para me distrair.

Se tu minimamente curte Jazz toma aqui uma playlist com tempero latino:
