Ambient house is a downtempo[2] subgenre of house music that first emerged in the late 1980s, combining elements of acid house and ambient music. The genre developed in chill-out rooms and specialist clubs as part of the UK's dance music scene.[2] It was most prominently pioneered by the Orb and the KLF, along with artists such as Global Communication, Irresistible Force, Youth, and 808 State.[2][3] The term was used vaguely, and eventually fell out of favor as more specific subgenres were recognized.[4]
