without wanting to get too technical, the term you're after is a 'warm pad'. You first started to hear them in filmscores, synthesisers and cosmic disco records around the turn of the 80s (Space, Moroder, Jean Michel Jarre, Baldelli) before the Chicago guys picked up on them. Frankie Knuckles Whistle Song is a good example. also the daddy of 'warm' records Mr Fingers Can you feel it which has that sad but uplifting 'warmth' too. then the prog lot (sasha and co) later kept the keys but stripped away the rawness, creating an altogether different sound. the best all night house sets imo balance out the warmpads saving them for around the 3/4am mark when people are coming up, freeing you up to play harder, more challenging 4/4 beforehand. about 80% of the music I like probably features warmpads of some kind but best heard in moderation, or can get a bit overload (like eating too much cake..)
This will be the first and likely last time I post some Scooter , but they really have summed 2020 up
Yet to hear a bad version of this
