The Unbearable Lightness of CHILL OUT << >>


In the history of genres, styles and musical subdivisions, maybe that strange phenomenon called chill out stand out precisely for not wanting to stand out. Affected, almost uncomfortable, intense modesty chill out (in English, a reference to the calm, tranquility, relaxation) is more than a musical style with its own characteristics, a zone, a situation an area << >> rest. A tool to relax, for living << >>, as opposed to the stresses of work or danceable track: tempi smooth and quiet, smooth, with chords and melodies ostinados no surprises or stridency.
His music akin to the New Age >> << transcendentalists but without pretensions, share too many features with other ambient substyles called << >>, << >> or << downtempo trip-hop >> to claim any identity. Moreover, you need bulímicamente collects almost everything else, from nearest styles like acid jazz << >> and ethnic improbable fusion to genres such as opera, flamenco and tango.
Faced with such expansive spectrum, it is not surprising that its performers are multiplied to infinity, and that even the dubious prestige of artist chill out to more personal musicians such as Bjork, Chemical Brothers and even Pat Metheny is assigned. In fact, his character useful music << >> allows that name can be applied to any musical theme donate the atmosphere, the climate and the environment are its key features, as opposed to the rhythm or melody.

Compilers. This dispersion creates a few problems when characterizing this music of a separate practical use way. More artists actually the real protagonists of this style without name are compilers, like Bruno from Ibiza or other of those responsible for the collections of Café del Mar, an Ibizan place where cult sunset surrenders, whose albums have sold in the millions and have served as the soundtrack to dubious cultural projects, such as the Forum of Barcelona and the CD-ROM by the Spanish government to resume its presidency of the European Union.
While the term appeared to chill out mid-nineties to encompass several subgenres characterized by those slow tempos and soft sounds, some relate the origin of the idea to the environmental << >> conception of Brian Eno for his (this itself) excellent album Ambient 1: music for Airports, which he defined as << music to induce calm and create a space to think >>. In fact, the protean character, Mindless multiforme and chill out can be related to both the Gregorian chants that were so popular a few years ago, as attempts minimalist Philip Glass, the Musique d'ameublement by Satie or Cage breaks . But while all these artists posed a serious and vital search for a new way to understand his art, chill out is an interchangeable, soft and disposable music, related, in his philosophy or lack thereof, with other equally loose sounds and sacarinados as lounge music (music bars, casinos and hotels) or easy listening (easy listening), a few decades earlier. Today, around London clubs like Ministry of Sound, now record label, or the Ibizan electronic music scene for after the dance, chill out presents, rather than music, such as a sensory culture, or space, where the five senses receive some sort of constant pampering, including relaxing and numbing.

SOUNDS PADDED. With huge festivals like the British Big Chill, held since 1995, ranging from musical groups to visual spectacles, massage therapists and alternative therapies or Sensomusic, this summer was held in Madrid to mark the 25th anniversary of Café del Mar, the music and culture chill out moving slowly but inexorably, like soft water, creating with its padded sounds, spongy and weak, the soundtrack of a universe full of timeless sunrises and devoid of tensions of life.
