Ok, just went through Zarkos list

1. In The Kingdom Of The Blind The One-Eyed Are Kings - Dead Can Dance
I've heard this before...a great song!

2. Les Bras De Mer - Yann Tiersen
Sets a nice mood. Good stuff!

3. Mystery God - Fat Jon The Ample Soul Physician
Great laid back music. So far nothing has blown me away but the mood is really great.

4. Reascension - DJ Frane
Got a bit bored here...not much happening.

5. Son Of Mr Green Gene - Frank Zappa
A much needed shift...Not my favorite zappa song, but yah, can't go wrong with anything from Hot Rats. Amazing song and album.

6. Stella - Kashiwa Daisuke

Thirty fucking six minutes of dreamy, ambienty, post-rocky wtfness.
First 10 minutes - sets a nice mood, with a slow build up.
Next 10 minutes - Tempo changes a bit. Kinda needed i guess.
Next 10 minutes - I'm already lost...i don't remember what happened
Last 6 minutes - Similar to the first 5 minutes...slows down a bit.
Definitely the highlight for me!

7. Stoney Street - Amon Tobin
I've heard this song before...good stuff. Goota love that bass. Don't know where it's taken from though.

8. The Dawn (feat. Shawn J. Period) – DJ Krush
Again, nothing that would make me go WTF or any such thing, but nicely continues on the mood set so far.

9. Vargtimme - Helios
Kinda slept off here

10. Ysabel’s Table Dance - Charles Mingus
Superb song! Love the Hispanic touch it has. Again, the mood is wonderful.

I would give this compilation an 8/10. It does have a few dull moments, but overall, very laid-back jazzy ambient stuff, with a nice atmosphere. Not much diversity, but that's not a bad thing here
A bit too long maybe, but I'm used to that anyways.

Edit: The DJ Frane track feels much better after a second listen...don't know why i got bored of it in the first place.
