Get some older Porcupine Tree, my favourite relaxing tracks by them are Mellotron Scratch (off Deadwing), Russia on Ice (off Lightbulb Sun) Buying New Soul (off 'Recordings) and Heartattack In a Layby (off In Absentia - although that's a depressing song).

EDIT:

OH!

Also: Stars Die from The Sky Moves Sideways (you can listen to that on their myspace page here

I'm listening to Mellotron Scratch right now. I was about to come in here to reccomend it too :(

But check out the Voyage 34: The Complete Trip by Porcupine Tree, also.
It's just 4 tracks, each around 15 minutes, very relaxing.
 
Anything by Zero 7 (3 albums to choose from) and you won't go far wrong.

If you're looking for some ambient stuff go for: The Orb, The KLF - Chill Out or anything by Global Communication.
 
Couple of non-chilled, chilled songs (requested) and some chilled songs (not requested ;))

Nu Yorican Soul - Black Gold of the Sun
Nick Cave - Into My Arms
Kings of Convenience - Winning a Battle, Losing a War
Saint Etienne - Sun In My Morning
Arab Strap - Cherubs
Gotan Project - Last Tango in Paris
Lamb - Gorecki

Thats some of my chilled list at the mo. Good starting point.
 
Groove Armada: Hands of Time

I can do albums & Bands:

Kruder & Dorfmeister: The K&D sessions
DJ Kicks
Aim: Cold Water Music
Tosca
Enigma
Thievery Corporation: The mirror Conspiracy is probably my favourite.
Royksopp
Lemon Jelly
Air
Zero 7
Sigur Ros
Northern Exposure Vol. 1
Winter Chill :VA
Morcheeba: Big Calm
Godspeed You Black Emperor :F# A# Oo ( it's a bit far out but also chilling)
Quantic
Peace Orchestra: Peace Orchestra
Global Communication: 76.14
Aphex Twin: Selected Ambient Works Vol.1 1985-1992

I also find DJ Shadow: Entroducing quite chilling in the AM, especially Midnight in a perfect world.

Very different from all of that but extremely chilling is Nick Drake: Five Leaves Left, I haven't made it through the album without falling asleep.

Another chilling album is Pink Floyd: wish you were here. Perfet for Sunday mornings while lying in bed.

Haven't heard yet but recommended:

Bonobo
St Germain

Hope that helps.
