Mint green vinyl.

'Lounge Psychedelique' takes you on a journey into the world of Lounge, Exotica and Space Age Bachelor Pad Music, from its early days in the 1950s and 1960s to the current crop of artists championing the Lounge & Exotica sounds today. Compiled by Spencer Hickman & Mark McQuillan for Two-Piers 'Lounge Psychedelique (The Best of Lounge & Exotica 1954-2022)' is the third instalment in the Psychedelique Compilation series on Two-Piers, following the critically acclaimed 'Pop Psychedelique (The Best of French Psychedelic Pop 1964-2019)' and 'Garage Psychedelique (The Best of Garage Psych and Pzyk Rock 1965-2019)'. 'Lounge Psychedelique' brings together the sounds of Easy Listening, Soundtrack Instrumentals, Exotica, Jazz, Psychedelic, and Space Age sounds all under the umbrella of Lounge Music. The compilation includes legends of the Lounge and Exotica scene, such as Martin Denny, Yma Sumac, Mel Torme, Herb Alpert, and Les Baxter, alongside legendary composers Hugo Montenegro, Lalo Schifrin, Michael Giacchino. Add some Lounge Jazz from Cal Tjader and the Latin Bossa Nova of Quincy Jones. Then throw in some beautiful oddities from Leonard Nimoy, Pizzicato Five and Mort Garson. Next, mix in some Lounge-Mod moments from Dave Pike and Jack Trombey, KPM library classics from Alan Hawkshaw and Keith Mansfield, and finish with some brilliant modern-day exponents of the Exotica sound Los Bitchos, Ixtaheule and the Percussive Funk Moog party sounds of The Bongolian. The result is a fun and crazy ride through the world of Lounge Music which will bring a smile to your face and a spring to your step. So raise a cocktail glass to 'Lounge Psychedelique (The Best of Lounge & Exotica 1954-2022) - a sheer joy from start to finish! 'Lounge Psychedelique' isn't meant to be a 'crate diggers' album or a compilation of obscure, hard-to-find tracks to outdo your mates.
