Weathertunes

Weathertunes is the collaborative project of German brothers Roland and Daniel Voss, central figures in the European downtempo and lounge scenes. Since their debut in 2001, they have refined a signature 'Weathertunes vibe' that blends electro-acoustic elements with sophisticated jazz influences and urban beats.

Roland Voss, also known as Lemongrass, brings a deep expertise in ambient and chillout production, while Daniel contributes a complementary melodic sensibility. Their sound identity is defined by the prominent use of clean jazz guitar, often provided by Michael Arlt, and a diverse palette of samples ranging from opera snippets to natural field recordings. Historically, they emerged during the peak of the lounge compilation era, becoming staples on influential series like 'Comfort Zone.' Critical consensus highlights their ability to maintain a consistent, agreeable aesthetic while experimenting with varied rhythms like Drum & Bass and Hip-Hop. Their work is a cornerstone of the Lemongrassmusic label, representing a bridge between 90s trip-hop and modern high-fidelity chillout.
