If you caught our first installment of artist-curated travel playlists, you'll already have some incredible tunes to soundtrack your next trip. This time around, we're providing some more eclectic music through our collaboration with the very talented Luis Dubuc of LA-based synth pop act, Mystery Skulls . Lu is no stranger to a diverse range of musical genres, having been in a variety of projects including electronica act The Secret Handshake as well as metalcore bands Of Legends and Thirty Called Arson. Industry heavyweights such as Nile Rodgers and Brandy have also worked with the singer/songwriter.

Naturally, we were interested in picking his brain about the kind of music a versatile artist such as himself listens to. The result? A selection of hip hop instrumentals, downtempo and metalcore tracks. Check out the full playlist below and read all about Lu's favorite travel destinations and go-to essentials.
