Behind the music:

Chill out music is a genre designed to relax listeners with its slow tempos, soothing sounds, and often ambient aesthetics. It originated in the early 1990s in chill rooms at clubs, where dancers would unwind to softer music away from the main dance floor. Artists like The Orb and Moby are key figures in the genre, employing synthesizers, slow beats, and atmospheric sounds to create their tracks. This music is often used in settings that require a calming atmosphere, such as yoga classes, spas, and study sessions. The genre encompasses a variety of styles including ambient, downtempo, and electronic. It has grown globally, influencing various aspects of lifestyle and entertainment.
