Psychill

Psychill is a genre of electronic music characterized by its downtempo beats, often between 80-110 BPM, and rich, atmospheric soundscapes. Emerging in the early 2000s, psychill drew inspiration from psychedelic rock, ambient, and world music, with artists incorporating elements of folk, classical, and Eastern musical traditions. Typically featuring lush synthesizers, intricate guitar work, and hypnotic basslines, psychill music often features soft, ethereal vocal styles and nature-inspired sound effects. This genre thrived in the mid to late 2000s, particularly among the global chillout and festival circuits, providing a sonic backdrop for spiritual and introspective experiences. Psychill's unique blend of psychedelic and chillout elements sets it apart from more upbeat psytrance and goa styles, while its emphasis on atmosphere and texture distinguishes it from more minimal ambient genres.
