Buddha Cafe, The (3CDs Of Sublime Chilled Beats) - Various Artists

Advantages: Upbeat, Reflective
Disadvantages: None!

...I bought this CD expecting it to be like all the other relaxation CDs on the market however I realise now how wrong I was. The three CDs offer a variety of interesting and reflective songs which are perfect for meditating to. If I am in a bad mood I can guarantee that just by switching on one of these CDs I will instantly feel more cheerful. The only disadvantage would be that some of the songs are slightly too long and repetitive but this hardly matters compared to the fantastic music offered on the CDs. The CDs are also great value considering you are getting 3 CDs for less than a fiver! Overall, I would definately recommend the CDs for anyone looking for a slightly more upbeat version of the original relaxation album.... Read review

Advantages: Deep Chilled out way to relax
Disadvantages: Honestly none

...Have you ever wanted to be totally relaxed? Have you ever wanted to just get away from that thing called life? This compilation, in the Euphoria series, works extremely well. The concept it very simple, well know trance tracks, mixed with long relaxing beats, it's absolutely brilliant. The whole 2 1/2 hours worth of music spread across 2 discs, fades into each track, from one to the other. This basically means, uninterrupted music! There are various style spread across the whole music journey here. Fast famous trance hits, and amazing mind chilling mixes of newer music. These all bring life and a whole new meaning into your mind as you listen. I rented the CD after seeing a TV advert on sky, I really don’t why I did, but I certainly have no regret against it. It’s very hard to explain how the music feels in most... Read review

Advantages: Simply fantastic
Disadvantages: none.

...Well i'm back reviewing the Cafe del mar series as promised, this time I am dealing with volume 3. This cd was put together during the summer of 1996, in Ibiza at the Cafe del mar, Which for any one that doesn't know, is a world famous cafe-cum-club known for its chill-out themes and generally having a nice time, relaxing and being relaxed. Its a haven for taking time out at, and many a clubber would have visited here during their stay in Ibiza. As you have come to expect, there is a wide mix of music on these cd's, on this volume though, there is nothing wildly different, the tracks seem to flow into one another, Im not sure if this realy works, all the other compilations have something different on them that wakes you up and makes you sit up and listen, but here there is none of that, you realy could fall to sleep listening...
