Music that anyone can casually listen to without any prior knowledge. Around 1970, music that was once called mood music began to be called easy listening music, following the name given by music industry papers in the United States. The background to this was the fact that music was now commonly played over speakers in stations and department stores as "background music," and that research was being done into the positive effects that background music has on work efficiency in workplaces where simple labor is performed, and there was a social movement to use music from an ergonomic perspective.

何の予備知識もなくてもだれでも気軽に聞き流せるような音楽。かつてムード・ミュージックと呼ばれていたような音楽を,1970年前後から,アメリカでの音楽業界紙の呼び方にならい,イージー・リスニング・ミュージックと言うようになった。その背景として,駅やデパートなどでいわゆる〈BGM(バックグラウンド・ミュージック)〉としてたえずスピーカーから音楽が流されることが一般化し,また単純労働の行われている作業場などでBGMの及ぼす作業能率へのプラス効果が研究されるなど,人間工学的な角度から音楽を利用しようとする社会的な動きが存在した。
