Sound of Lounge
August 30th, 2005 -- Posted in music | No Comments »When I first found these albums a few years ago, I could not classify this kind of music in any known genre. I simply call them ‘lounge’. They were different from the ambient/chillout I was so used to. Lounge is a mix of various catchy yet relaxing tunes consisting of modern acid jazz, light electronica and old skool funk. Most of these tunes are not new. Some have been around before I knew how to appreciate them. I even had a good lounge compilation called Lo.Fi in my possession over the past years yet I didn’t realize I had it. Only then did I realize Thievery Corporation had been around for a while and I had heard them before.
