Tonight, we delve into the world of what Wikipedia describes as a “microgenre of electronic music and an Internet meme …. defined by its appropriation of 1980s and 1990s mood music styles such as smooth jazz, elevator music, R&B, and lounge music, typically sampling or manipulating tracks via chopped and screwed techniques and other effects” or original music inspired by this a e s t h e t i c. As ironic as much of it is, I feel that the genre has a lot of neat sounds, textures, and ways of expression that should not be overlooked when delving into electronic music. So grab a Crystal Pepsi, hit play on your parents’ old VCR, and just dream.
