Sophisti-pop (or Jazz pop) is a music genre used to describe a certain kind of smooth radio-friendly pop music with a jazz or soul tinge. First appearing in the mid-1980s, its usual reliance on synthesizers was typical for the decade. All in all, sophisti-pop can be considered to share notable elements with smooth jazz, blue-eyed soul, Pop rock and rarely New Romanticism. It was subject to criticism at the time, especially from Melody Maker in the United Kingdom, mainly by Simon Reynolds and David Stubbs.
