【Yacht Rock】【West Coast Sound】 &【AOR】70s 80s Adult Contemporary vol.01
Показать описание
Hi! This DJ set is all about celebrating the smooth, sophisticated sounds of Adult Contemporary music that dominated the late 70s and early 80s. It features timeless tracks from genres like *Yacht Rock*, *West Coast Sound*, and *AOR (Adult Oriented Rock)* — styles that defined an era and remain iconic today. The vibe? Relaxed, polished, and effortlessly cool, perfect for unwinding or imagining a touch of luxury.
- **Yacht Rock:** Characterized by its smooth, laid-back sound, this genre became synonymous with the late 70s West Coast lifestyle. Think artists like Boz Scaggs, creating the perfect soundtrack for cruising on a yacht (or dreaming of it).
- **West Coast Sound:** Breezy, light, and sophisticated, this style captures the essence of California cool. Steely Dan and similar artists embody this refined yet accessible vibe.
- **AOR (Adult Oriented Rock):** A fusion of rock and pop, known for its unforgettable melodies. Icons like Billy Joel and Christopher Cross defined this genre. In Japan, where I live, "AOR" is a familiar term that continues to resonate with music fans.
Growing up in rural Japan, surrounded by rice paddies, these songs, during my teenage years, offered a glimpse into a glamorous and sophisticated adult world—one that felt light-years away in places like California’s West Coast or the bustling streets of New York City.
Late at night, when the house was quiet and my family was fast asleep, I’d retreat to my room, play cassette tapes I’d recorded from the radio, and lose myself in the stories these songs told. I rent secretly from my dad’s suit and a cigarette, balanced in my mouth, and pretending to sip a cocktail, I would imagine myself living that chic, cosmopolitan lifestyle with many friends and American beautiful lover. Was my imaginary lover's name Mary? Susan?? Linda???😀😀😀
For this set, I’ve adjusted the BPM slightly to evoke the nostalgic feel of the era, but kept it simple and true to the original sounds — no flashy effects here.
So grab your favorite drink, settle in, and take a journey back to the luxurious sounds of the 70s and 80s.
