Ok ladies and gentlemen, i need some of your seasoned advice.

Am in the need of some more chillout tunes.

At the moment i listen to such cd as...

Massive attack
International Observer
Urban species
Boards of Canada
Royksopp
Kruder & Dorfmeister
faithless
Seal
The egg
Central heating

The Ambient PSY Chillout channel on shoutcast...

Will also listen to bands such as...

Counting crows
Sister hazel
3 doors down
Dr Dre ( i like a bit of rap now and then :D )

So, what would people recommend chilling too?

Many thanks,
Woody
 
Jose Gonzalez Veneer for some really chilled out relaxing music, quite good album although some songs are a bit samey!
 
I'd thoroughly recommend some of the following:

Air - Moon Safari, Talkie-Walkie
Atjazz - Labfunk, That Something
Bar De Lune Present Radar - Nothing Is Real
Bonobo - Dial M For Monkey, Anmial Magic, One Offs Remixes And B-Sides
Craig Armstrong - As If Nothing, Piano Works, The Space Between Us
Crazy Penis - A Nice Hot Bath With, 24 Hour Psychedelic Freakout
Enigma - The Cross Of Changes
Enya - Too many albums :p
Everything But The Girl - Walking Wounded and other albums.
Groove Armada - Vertigo
Mazzy Star - Among My Swan, She Hangs Brightly, So Tonight That I Might See
Moby - Hotel Ambient (CD 2 of Hotel)
Thievery Corporation - Cosmic Game, The Richest Man in Babylon
Thunderball - Scorpio Rising
Tosca - Dehli 9, Suzuki
Waldeck - The Night Garden, Balance Of The Force
Zero 7 - Simple Things, When It Falls

I could go on. There are varied genre's there but a lot of it you can chill out to. It should last you quite a bit :p, have fun :).
 
OM LOUNGE 1 througth to 10, some of the best chilled music ever.

Couple of comments about the the latest OM LOUNGE 10,

“If you’re searching for something sweet and sexy to set a sophisticated mood, don’t look any further.” – URB

“Om once again redefines the boundaries of contemporary lounge with a gamut-running collection of sassy soul and dream-inducing downtempo on the spliffy, cooled out cocktail tip.” – THE EXAMINER

Start with the early ones first as they are the best.
 
Bjork - Homogenic
Moby - Play, 18
Ian Brown - Music of the Spheres
Nightmares On Wax - Smokers Delight
The Orb - U.F O.R.B
Primal Scream - Vanishing Point
Primal Scream - Echo Dek (Dub Remix of Vanishing Point)
Red Snapper - Our Aim Is To Satisfy
 
I'm listening to Rob Dougan - Furious Angels (album) at the moment. Chilled out with a dash of misery which is perfect.

Nice album mate, I just got that myself, comes with an extra instrumental cd as well, absolutely love track 7 - There's Only Me, I don't know what it is with the number 7, on a good 80 percent of my albums number 7 is usually my fav track :confused: .
 
Nightmares on Wax is pretty nice.

Cinematic Orchestra is stunning if you want something a bit more thoughtful.

Agreed, great track ;) . Number 9 is my fave "Nothing At All" :)
 
Some top ambient albums:

Selected Ambient Works 85-92 - Aphex Twin - it's got more beats than S.A.W II, but still very ambient.

Selected Ambient Works 85-92 - Aphex Twin - less beats than S.A.W. 85-92, so perhaps more ambient :P

Symbol - Susumu Yokota - Japanese ambience, using samples of well-known classical pieces to create something a bit special.

There are more, but its probably best to name a select few for now :)
