Chill out music is a genre of electronic music that emerged in the late 1980s and early 1990s as a subgenre of ambient music. It is characterized by slow tempos, atmospheric sounds, and relaxing melodies. Chill out music is often used as background music for meditation, yoga, spa, or other activities that require a calm and soothing mood. Chill out music is also popular in lounge bars, cafes, and hotels, where it creates a sophisticated and elegant ambiance.
In the USA, chill out music has a diverse and rich history, influenced by various musical styles and cultures. Some of the pioneers of chill out music in the USA include Brian Eno, who created ambient music albums such as Music for Airports and Apollo: Atmospheres and Soundtracks; The Orb, who blended ambient music with dub and house elements; and Moby, who fused chill out music with pop, rock, and soul influences. Some of the contemporary artists of chill out music in the USA include Thievery Corporation, who incorporate world music and jazz elements; Tycho, who create ambient electronic music with guitar and synthesizer sounds; and Bonobo, who mix chill out music with downtempo, trip hop, and nu jazz genres.
