Downtempo

Downtempo (or Downbeat) is a laid-back electronic music style similar to ambient music, but usually with a beat or groove unlike the beatless forms of Ambient music. The beat is sometimes made from loops that have a hypnotic feeling. Sometimes the beats are more complicated and more featured instead of being in the background, but even then they are usually less intense than other kinds of electronic music like Trance.

Hi. If I'm not the first, then let me be among the earliest to wish you "Season's Greetings". May I also take this opportunity to introduce you to my latest album entitled "Twinite (1498-2000)". It contains 16 instrumentals, many of which attracted fans of Henry Mancini, Thievery Corporation, Jim Brickman, Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Beethoven, Mozart and a number of other popular artists. It would be a great Xmas gift. For purchases, please visit http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/errolmichaelfilophillips2 Once again, Merry Christmas to you and yours.
