3 out of 5 stars Quite good, with plenty that avoided the chill glut of 2001.......2002-02-08

Okay, since this is an older title, AND an import, AND pre-chillout explosion AND unlikely to be read (since typing Chill won't call it up in a search) I'll be brief.

Big hits from Nightmares on Wax, Bent, Thievery Corporation and some others are proven winners. Regular Fries "Cyanide" hauls hand claps and xylophone for a spritely twist, Space Raiders bear a 303 running laps, Scanner and The Herbalizer work hard to make it sound so easy, and Danmass close with the keeper of the lot, a heady mix of swimming vocal, electric guitar and tight beats. Whiffs come from Japanese studio wizards Boom Boom Satellites, who can't restrain their trip-hop girl, and Underworld's blathering "Skym."

Disc two goes more downbeat. Ekova doesn't realize that scratching should, like, never be on a relax record, and "Called" has too many cooks. "Swansong's" a warbling little beauty, "Angel of Love" actually overcomes that drek title, "Now or Never's" rather sweet. "Tides" is take it or leave it piano, and "Channel 1 Suite" and the rest must be working as I'm becoming too numb to type.

So, quite good actually. Even more impressive considering the enormous chillout glut of 2001 didn't nab a bunch of these tunes. Worthy. 3.5 stars

4 out of 5 stars Worth staying up for.......2000-09-06

Depending on your consumption habits, you may be one of those that likes some nice chill-out ambience after a night of clubbing/partying/whatever. This comes pretty close to being a perfect fit. Diverse enough to be interesting, with a smooth enough flow between most tracks to not destroy a mood, this is on of the better chill out compilations. With some nice jazz touches at some places, smooth soundscapes at others, whispers, voices and occasional vocals weaving through the textures. I'm not familiar with many of the artists represented here, but the vast majority of the tracks fit just fine. Even some of the suprises work well, like the No-Man track Only Rain (No-Man comes from a somewhat different genre if you could call it that, but compliments this compilation well).

5 out of 5 stars Chill Out!.......2000-06-24

This is one of the few chill-out albums I've heard (of the many I've listened to) that maintains the mood and keeps things interesting by mixing-in different genres (including bossa nova?) into the mix.
