Description

Ambient House is a narrow subgenre that made a brief appearance in chill-out rooms of London clubs in the late 1980s. Calming, soothing tracks such as the Orb's "Little Fluffy Clouds," the Grid's "Floatation" and Innocence's "Natural Thing" were designed to encourage ravers to chill rather than dance. Breathy vocals, spiritual melodies and luminous shimmerscapes charged mid-tempo House grooves with a New Age positivity.
