Favourite Chill Out Tracks & Albums - lets get 'em down!
 

Hey guys,

I've been downloading some ministry of sound stuff recently and am loving this chillout type of music more and more!

Aside from these compliations though I'm a newbie to the whole chillout phenomenon and would love everyone's suggestions on what tracks or albums to download!

My fav so far is Avalon by Juliet :thumb:

Try these:

JOSE PADILLA-SOUVENIR (Balearic Chill/Spanish/Electronic)
UNDERWORLD-DUBNOBASSWITHMYHEADMAN (Ambient Techno)
WILLIAM ORBIT-STRANGE CARGO albums (Ambient Electronic)
EVERYTHING BUT THE GIRL-WALKING WOUNDED/TEMPARAMENTAL (Ambient breakbeat/DnB)
CAFE DEL MAR-huge series of chillout compilations-try any as good starters
TANGERINE DREAM-POLAND/UNDERWATER SUNLIGHT etc (Electronic/Rock)
KRUDER and DORFMEISTER-THE K & D SESSIONS (Jazz/Hip/Hop/Indie Remix's)
AFTERLIFE-SIMPLICITY TWO THOUSAND (Balearic Chill)
THIEVERY CORPORATION-THE RICHEST MAN IN BABYLON (Bossa Nova tinged)
PAN AMERICAN-360 BUSINESS 360 BYPASS (Post Rock)
CLANNAD- BANBA (gaelic folk)
ANOICE -REMMINGS (post rock)
THE CINEMATIC ORCHESTRA-MA FLEUR (orchestral/pop)
ZERO7-SIMPLE THINGS (acoustic/jazz)
DEAD CAN DANCE-SPIRITCHASER (WORLD BEATS)
FAITHLESS-NO ROOTS (acoustic/dance)
FILA BRAZILIA-MAIM THAT TUNE (world/jazz)
THE FUTURE SOUND OF LONDON-ACCELERATOR (Beats/breaks)
JOSE GONZALEZ-VENEER (acoustic)
CREAM PRESENTS FUTURE CHILL (dance)
MAD PROFESSOR PRESENTS..any of this series (dub)
NIGHTMARES ON WAX-CARBOOT SOUL (jazz)

That's just a small collection and some of the genre descriptions are open to debate, but for Electronic chillout the place to start is the aforementioned CAFE DEL MAR series of mix's-that's where I started a few years back!

Anyone else fancy dipping their toes in this genre-a good place to start.
