Notes from Saint Lucia

Saint Lucia

New

Welcome to the new RelaxingJazz.com

After many years as a single page, RelaxingJazz.com has grown into a proper home for the station. The music hasn’t changed one bit: still commercial-free, still handpicked, still smooth jazz all day and all night from Saint Lucia. What’s new is everything around it.

The music keeps playing while you look around. Press play once and browse the whole site: the player stays at the bottom of the screen and the stream carries on uninterrupted from page to page.

Here’s what you’ll find:

  • What was that song? The playlist now keeps a searchable log. Search by artist or title, or pick a day and time to see exactly what was on.
  • The RJ 20. Tap ♥ on anything you’ve heard in the last three hours and it counts towards our weekly listeners’ chart, published every Monday. There’s a Song of the Week poll too.
  • Smooth jazz news. Headlines from the smooth jazz press, new releases from artists we play, and notes like this one from the studio.
  • Artists. A directory of the musicians you hear on the station, with the tracks we’ve played and their latest releases.

A word on votes: they help us shape the rotation over the coming weeks, but they never pick the next song. The playlists are still put together by hand.

As always, there are no ads, no trackers and no accounts to sign up for. If you spot something that isn’t working, or you have an idea, we’d love to hear from you at relaxingjazz@pm.me.

Thank you for listening.
