Western music masterpieces to listen to at night (21–30)

Still A Friend Of MineIncognito

The early 1990s saw a boom in acid jazz.

One of the acts that found success in this genre was Incognito.

Formed in 1979, their band name is said to mean “anonymous.” Still a Friend of Mine is a 1993 release.

While it shimmers with a sense of brightness, it also has a certain calm that, curiously, puts you at ease even when you listen at night.

Included on the 1988 album “Turn Back the Clock.” A two-man pop band from London who debuted in 1986.

With a mid-tempo, formulaic progression and a wet, mellow ballad melody that’s very easy to listen to, it’s the kind of track that, before you know it, has taken up residence deep in your heart.

A masterpiece by Miley Cyrus that’s catchy yet lyrically refined, with melodious, tastefully delivered vocals to match.

It’s a track that smoothly sets a great nighttime mood and lifts your spirits, making for an easy, seamless listen.

My HumpsThe Black Eyed Peas

This is a classic by the Black Eyed Peas, a group that has long reigned in the scene with a style that constantly embraces trends—from a sound rooted in hip-hop and reggae to incorporating electronic dance music.

Though they originally produced hard-edged underground music, their ability to approach the latest styles with high sophistication is remarkable.

It’s a track you’ll want to listen to at night.

HumanThe Human League

Included on the 1986 album “Crash.” A three-piece synth-pop band from the UK formed in 1977.

The song’s appeal lies in its beautiful use of space—melodies that make effective use of an airy, almost hollow atmosphere—set against a mid-tempo progression with a slightly hard-edged rhythm.

I think that works well.

The Style Council was a band active in the UK during the 1980s.

Formed around Paul Weller, a former member of the punk band The Jam, they gained fans around the world with their rich musicality.

There are several versions of My Ever Changing Moods.

The most famous is the upbeat single cut, but if you’re looking for something to listen to at night, the piano version included on the 1984 album Café Bleu is unquestionably the one.
