Mercedes Benz supports young musicians from around the world and provides you with free downloads. The albums change frequently and lounge, chill-out or latin music is available quite often.

Sylt is a small German island in the northern sea. With its long beaches and endless dunes of very fine sand it's a perfect place to relax your mind. Think of such a place when listening to this lounge music and sipping on a cocktail.

You can either listen to the album via your media player or download the whole album by clicking on "Album downloaden >>" at the bottom of the page.

Sofasound lets you listen to different albums via a stream, download tracks seperately or the whole album as a zip-file.
I'd suggest listening to the album of "Confused Man" which has some very nice lounge tracks on it.

A diverse selection of free streams with cocktail music. Every once in a while there are some commercials in between the tracks but they aren't that annoying. If you click on the link above scroll down the page all the way to find the stations I recommend.

If you're mixing classical drinks I recommend "Smooth Jazz" (though a little too boring at times this stream can be just perfect for a romantic cocktail evening) and "Modern Jazz" (a sound you might have to get used to. But serves great as background music for cocktail parties with more than just a couple of people).

While sipping on carribean drinks such as the famous Pina Colada listen to "Roots Reggae" to get that beach-sunset-palmtree-atmosphere that makes your cocktails even more tasty!
