A culture surrounding chill-out music has evolved, with many fashionable bars and clubs - designed with a retro or retro-futuristic ambience - devoted to the genre. Ministry of Sound in London has hosted many chill-out events in places such as Ibiza, and hundreds of mix compilation titles including the words chill out or just chill cater to chill-out audiences. Downtempo music started to surface around Ibiza, when DJs and promoters would bring down the vibe with slower rhythm and gentler electronic music upon approaching sunrise. Trip hop emerged from Bristol, which combined elements of hip hop beats, drum and bass breaks, and ambient atmospheres at a lower tempo. At the end of the more melodic instrumental electronica incorporating acoustic sounds with electronic styles emerged under its own umbrella name of downtempo.

Thom Yorke of Radiohead has shared a new song titled “That’s How Horses Are,” his second contribution to the final season of the British drama series Peaky Blinders. Yorke released “5.17,” another track he’d written for Peaky Blinders, in mid-March. Series director Anthony Byrne told NME earlier this year that Yorke and Jonny Greenwood had written original music for the show. “The music has always been really important historically, and I was really keen to bring a dramatic score into it,” he said.

On Sunday, the final ever episode of BBC One’s Peaky Blinders aired; one of the biggest TV moments of the year - the season’s premiere was watched by 3.8 million people – was soundtracked by the BRIT award and triple Hyundai Music Prize-nominated Anna Calvi who wrote and performed the whole score to season 6.
