'Lounge Psychédélique' takes you on a journey into the world of Lounge, Exotica and Space Age Bachelor Pad Music, from its early days in the 1950s and 1960s to the current crop of artists championing the Lounge & Exotica sounds today. Compiled by Spencer Hickman & Mark McQuillan for Two-Piers
'Lounge Psychédélique (The Best of Lounge & Exotica 1954-2022)' is the third instalment in the Psychédélique Compilation series on Two-Piers, following the critically acclaimed 'Pop Psychédélique (The Best of French Psychedelic Pop 1964-2019)' and 'Garage Psychédélique (The Best of Garage Psych and Pzyk Rock 1965-2019)'.

'Lounge Psychédélique' isn't meant to be a 'crate diggers' album or a compilation of obscure, hard-to-find tracks to outdo your mates. Instead, it is intended to celebrate the Lounge scene and, hopefully, the perfect introduction to this fantastic and beautiful music for any newcomers out there. So let your journey into Lounge and Exotica begin here….
"Last summer I was sitting with Spencer and several tiki drinks into the evening, we began to dream about the kind of albums we'd love to see in the world. Our discussion led to the idea of a compilation LP that would include all of our favourite lounge music and serve as a soundtrack for evenings just like the one we were currently enjoying. As Spencer and Mark slowly but surely willed this into existence, I was thrilled that Two-Piers had included Sidereal Day:3 from our Travelogue Vol 1 collaboration. It makes me smile that it sits amongst some of the grooviest tracks that you can sip mai tais too. A dream come true. Cheers!" - Michael Giacchino May 23
