Does anyone listen to "lounge"?

[CRAFTY]

I went to this restaurant the other day where they constantly played lounge, and I have to admit that I really liked it. I never bothered checking out some lounge music, but after hearing those songs, I'm really interested.

Can some of you give me advice on good lounge artists/compilations/...?

[ecrazy]

whats lounge? like smooth jazz or something, like elevator music?...i like that stuff too, my mom plays stuff like that a lot, jazzy tunes, dont know the artists though...sorry?...can u fill me in on lounge though?

[CRAFTY]

Yeah, I guess you can compare it to "smooth jazz". Also, 95% of the songs I heard were instrumental...it's that type of music you could play during a romantic dinner.

I´m really not big into that stuff, but I can recommend Thievery Corporation too, they´re nice. Check out Zero 7 too, or maybe Kruder & Dorfmeister. whiteboy mentioned Cafe del Mar, a friend of mine is into it, i barely know it myself tbh. Air is a good band too, blending strongly into the trip-hop genre (which Thievery Corporation does too though, and lounge and trip-hop can sometimes be very close anyways)...a band I just discovered is Sia, they got a lil R´n´B twist to many of their songs. But I´m not too versed in this genre, so I´m not exactly sure if this is what you´re looking for, but it should go in the right direction...

^^^^Thanks for the names...I'll do some research tonight to see if that's the music I'm looking for...

There's also some funky ass smooth jazz.  If that's what you're looking for, peep Richard Elliot, Rick Braun, and Boney James.

i have an entire album of Zero 7 if u want. I got a whole bunch of shit like that. Acutally, not that much, but i have some shit in that genre

^^^^Cool, I'll holler at you.
