A retrospective look into a great comedown genre: Sophisti-pop -- known for its polished arrangements, sentimental + sincere lyrics, and perfectionist studio culture, sophisti-pop provided a great soundtrack for those wishing to listen to stylish pop music with brit-funk, jazz, soul, and atmospheric elements. I dove into my collection and pulled an hour's worth of my favorite sophisti-pop tracks featuring music by: Bryan Ferry, Grace Jones, Prefab Sprout, Sade, Destroyer, Kate Bush, pre-electronic EBTG, and more.
