The Psychonauts soundtracks, either the first or second game, but I'd say moreso the first one. About a third of the songs are kinda country twangy instrumentals because the game takes place in a summer camp. They're the perfect lazy summer day songs imo.
Finally got around to playing part 2 last week and it’s phenomenal. The soundtrack in part two has the perfect blend of campy secret agent themes and the summer camp nostalgia vibes.
But imo the combat music in Psychonauts 2 is where the soundtrack really shines. I mean just listen to A Little Fight Music, Lady Luctopus, Panic Attack, Fight in the Library, and pretty much any boss music from the second one. Each track is so punchy and energetic.
The Cassette Beasts soundtrack is excellent and they've recently released some acoustic/live sessions. "Wherever we are now" would suit your theme perfectly.

Man that takes me back. Full Throttle, Indiana Jones, Under a Killing Moon, so many great point and click adventure games from that time.

Especially the track Whispering Rock from the first games.

I love all the spy ones like Loboto Interior Sneak, Landing At The Luctopus, and Casino Hallway Sneak. Honorable mention for Here's How it's Done.

Tim Follin makes good music. Try the NES Pictionary theme song and if you like that Solstice theme song will blow you away.

Deus Ex Human Revolution soundtrack hits just right for me.

Basically anything from Jim Guthrie’s soundtrack for Superbrothers: Sword and Sworcery. It’s such a vibe

Start your day in Tarrey Town
"Cafe Ghibli" is also good over coffee, but that's bending the rules

Both are IMHO absolutely the perfect amount of “bright chill” you want for an early coffee
