Refreshing

"Have you ever experienced a sunset on Ibiza? No, well neither have I, but this album is the closest you'll get without actually being there. I am a fan of artists such as Portishead, dEUS, and Mono, but lately I have developed a taste for Ambient and Lounge. Although finding good material of this genre has proven quite challenging. TV and radio don't always play this sort of music. The best way to broaden your musical horizon as far as Ambient and Lounge is concerned, is to get hold of a compilation such as Chilled Ibiza. I didn't know what to expect, but the album was a revelation. It offers a great variety of artist, from The Prodigy, to Vangelis, to Bent. Some tracks include song, while others are pure sound. Take for example "Play dead" by Bjork and David Arnold. A song with everything in it from a regular guitar to an entire string orchestra in the background. Each beautifully balanced. Or Energy 52 with "Cafe Del Mar". A tune where one note flows into the next. This track has no beat in it, just a harmoneous flow of mutually complimenting sounds. Just close your eyes and you can almost feel the rays of the setting Sun warm your face. I can only recommend this album to anyone who feels for Ambient or Lounge. A perfect album to put on, when the party is winding down during the early morning hours, or if you simply feel like relaxing. Don't just listen to this music, experience it!"
One of the best compilations available

"Ambient, Lounge, Downbeat. This is a wonderful new genre of music. Laid-back melodies, rhythms and riffs sooth the soul and elements of R&B, hip hop, electronic and world music all combine to insinuate the mind. But one rarely be hears this music on the radio or MTV. Compilation discs are often the best way to be introduced to these artists and their material. However, compilation discs often do not live up to their promise. Chilled Ibiza does. This is one of those rare compilations that is solid from track to track. There are a few cuts that most people will have heard -- like the Moby and Sneaker Pimps tracks -- and there are cuts from well-known artists in the Ambient/Lounge genre (Massive Attack, Groove Armada, Thievery Corporation, Art of Noise). There are also cuts from lesser-known artists that will surprise and delight. Some of the best include: Bonobo's "Terrapin", Midfield General's "Reach Out", "Smokebelch II" by The Sabres of Paradise, and "Synthaesthesia" by The Thrillseekers. Only two things could have made this compilation even better and that is, 1) the inclusion of a Morcheeba track and 2) separate and distinct tracks (as opposed to mixing the beginning and end of each track into each other). Still, this is one of the best compilations I've ever come across and one of the best values available. Many compilations are good for only two or three decent tracks. Chilled Ibiza is jam packed with great music and deserves to be played over and over again."
Music Soothes The Savage Commuter

"For those days when your morning or evening commute seems even more hellacious than possible, I humbly submit this cd for your approval. Consider it the aural equivalent of that soothing after-work cocktail. The grooves are slow, relaxing and ultimately intoxicating. It's hard to name one stand-out track when the compilation is so strong - suffice to say, if urban stress has got you down, you owe it to yourself to buy this cd.
Your soul will thank you and your sanity will remain intact."
