Advantages: Nice and long; good value Disadvantages: Some songs are a bit too "dancey" to be considered "chillout"
...got to have it1". Not chillout though. Hmmmm.
Fixed Income - DJ Shadow;The same artist who made the music on the recent o2 adverts(blood on the tracks, I think). Sounds very like orbitals' "the box", with lots of chimes etc. No lyrics here, but a good deal of base. This one definitely falls into the electronica category.
Private Road - Bent; "my life is a private road, no thoroughfare, no heavy load". Absolute bliss. One of my favourite songs on ... ...rare mixes) and a nice chillout mix for when you come back in. Simple!
Conclusion:
I'd recommend this compilation. It has just enough rare mixes and non-album tracks to make it worthwhile, and enough well known tracks to make it sing-alongable(new word!). If you can get it at less than full price, go for it. Just be warned, it may not do exactly as it says on the tin!
Thanks for reading, Grex ...

Advantages: good chillin album would make for good after party listening Disadvantages: nothing
in my opinion it is a well put together easy piece of listening material that is not too hard and fast but just beaty enough to bring you back down to reality after having a crazy, dancy night in a club. The cover and inlay of the cd are ok but not that great. I know it is a chill out cd but it didnt have to have the cover of something that is a funeral cd. A few happy colours would not of gone a miss. Its too dark and dull and does not say chill ... ...and with just the cd contents in mind the cd is in fact superb and perfect for listening during any occassion. I would recommend it to you if you are in to this type of music. course its not for you if you are in to country and western and rubbish like that ...
