"Post-Ambient" New Music Genre

"Post-Ambient" music is a new sub-genre of Chill-out music that incorporates ambient elements with a more traditional musical structure or rhythm. A form of music that can be instrumental music or include vocals. It uses textural layers of sound comprised of both electronic and traditional instruments to create a somewhat visible listening experience and encourage active listening and a sense of calm.

The genre originated in 2021, after an extended period oF isolation and confinement due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Key to the birth of this new genre was an ever-increasing effort to find ways to make music with musicians across the globe via Zoom sessions and other online communication programs. This trend led to a diversification of musical tastes and sensitivities and often brought musicians from different backgrounds together in a way that had not been possible or practical a few years earlier.

"Post-Ambient" music genre may combine electronic, ambient, chill-out, downtempo, new age, post-rock, space, IDM, trance, trip hop and pop music. With the amalgamation of the different music genres, Post-Ambient music is usually performed at a slower tempo ranging from between 80 and 120 beats per minute.

"Post-Ambient" music genre has become popular and drawn together listeners of many different music genres and is partially driven by the pent-up desire to return to a more normalized lifestyle in the waning days of the pandemic, explore new music and discover new hybrid musical styles.
