While some people are confused and call it downbeat, other confused people call it downtempo. I just call it good wholesome grooves.

Very similar to trip-hop and acid-jazz, which it grow out of. DownTempo is a bit more abstract, providing laid back beats. The bounderies between the three can be very foggy, as all three style tend to over lap at the edges.

A good example of Downtempo is Kruder & Dorfmeister
