Top 5 Downtempo Songs Of The Day

The same way I went to look for ambient tracks on YouTube, I also went and looked for some Downtempo songs. The next album by Sleep City Crisis will be featuring some downtempo stuff also, but with a big of a grittier edge. Kinda like what I did with the track Misery under my composer name/stage name. Here, however, I was looking for just really laid back chill downtempo stuff. So check it out below.

Zero 7 - Destiny



When it comes to downtempo, Zero 7 is one of the masters at it in my honest opinion. It's so soulful, beautiful, and pleasant to the ears. I wouldn't ever turn my ears to the easy listening genre because I guess to me this is as easy listening as it gets. This song Destiny is from their album, Simple Things

Air - All I Need



Air is one of the greatest pleasant songwriters in the face of the planet I can't till they release more stuff. This is one of my favorite songs from them. It's from the album, Moon Safari

Morcheeba - Undress Me Now



Morcheeba one of the best downtempo groups out there. Their sound just about says more than the actual lyrics a lot of times. This song for me has a great deal of wonderful memories. This is from their album, Charango, which is excellent by the way.

Esthero - Country Livin'



Esthero's first album is probably one of the best introductions to downtempo and trip-hop for me. I wasn't too crazy about their second album and I saw them live and they were great. I just think they went down a more live and minus electronics direction. I don't think it's not a bad thing at all, but my preference was their sound within their first album, Breath from Another

Hooverphonic - One
