BACKGROUND LOUNGE MUSIC

Relax with a cool cocktail as you listen to this stylish collection of retro lounge cues. These swingin’ songs are hip for a wild mix of multimedia needs. Online marketing, MAD MEN-style TV shows, and sports car commercials are just a few of the many applications served by these bachelor pad scores.

All music on Radical Music Library’s “Lounge” was written by André Velour.

BACHELOR PAD: A cool cocktail of chilled lounge music and Rat Pack-style musical action (horn stabs included). It’s all happening for Vegas strip scenarios, hipster commercial ads, groovy fashion promos, 1960s-era film and video productions, Rat Pack documentaries, history channel series, animation, DVD menus, and retro radio bumpers. Hip, versatile lounge music at a royalty free price. Dig it, baby.

BOING: The titular sound effect wiggles and squeals through a fast-paced Latin drum track for a wonderfully weird track of royalty free music. An alternate take (included on the album) incorporates vocal effects for a nostalgic, 1960s twist. Utility for this wacky cue is limited only by a producer’s imagination. Potential applications include offbeat (and how) TV commercials, indie film credit sequences, AUSTIN POWERS-type spy spoofs, and BARBARELLA-esque sci-fi themes.

CHOPSTICKS: Quintessential 1960s-style lounge, as the classic piano ditty is sung by synthesized female voices. As with all the cues on this royalty free album, two full-length alternate cues are provided, too. One adds orchestration, while the other strips the concept down to a minimal, jazzy percussion track.

COOL COOL BABY: Bubbly jazz lounge, featuring piano, horn stabs and a sultry female voicing the title words. Sexy, space-age bachelor pad music for retro commercials, soda commercials, 1960s-influenced fashion promos, Juxtapoz Magazine-style alternative art exhibitions, animation, and TV/film production. Also great as hip on-hold music and background ambience for cool coffee shops and comic book stores. Two full-length alternate versions are also included.

CRAZY MAN: A seductive, Eartha Kitt-type female voice repeats the title as a jazzy bongo beat backs her up. Cool kitsch for a variety of applications, including multimedia marketing, online webisode themes, cartoons, and non-fiction TV programs. This track would also make a cool, catchy cue for an independent feature film campaign. Two alternate cues provide even further utility.

DITTY: Synthesized voices, a drum machine, and an ethereal organ track provide the easy-bake ingredients for this Esquivel-like track that will catapult listeners back to the 1960s. Two alternate versions include a minimized, percussion-only cue. Along with the short edits, this one album track provides five separate variations for maximum utility. All at a royalty free price!

MR. SMOOTHIE: Surreal, Fellini-esque lounge incorporating vocals, bongos, and a dreamy organ track. Two full-length alternate versions are also provided, including a stripped down percussion track with an entirely different feel than the main cue. You’ll find this smooth and versatile lounge track useful for an array of multimedia production needs.

LOUNGE DIVA: Drift away to a world of fashion and romance with this upbeat combo of lounge jazz and silky female vocals. Stylish cocktail grooves for independent film productions, hip fashion marketing, offbeat animation, ‘60s era TV shows a la MAD MEN, and much more. Two alternate tracks are also provided, along with short commercial edit versions.

VA VA VOOM: Intoxicating jazz melodies and cool Latin rhythms are blended for a heady drink of luscious lounge. Alternate tracks plus short edit versions are included, along with the full-length main version. Upbeat dance music for myriad applications. Utility includes TV food and travel programs, action movie trailers, cross-platform ad campaigns, online commercials, DVD menus, and sports highlights.

WACKY CHA CHA: Hip action lounge in the vein of classic soundtracks like GET CARTER and the James Bond films. Swingin’ and stylish for both period pieces and hip contemporary themes. Independent movies, TV series, web shows, sports car commercials, website design and offbeat corporate videos are just a few of the potential production applications for this sexy slice of retro cool. Two alternate tracks, along with short edit versions, provide further value.
