CD Reviews

Beware! 95% of songs sound identical, boring, etc...

"I love Chill compilations and have all the Chillout volumes 1-4 as well as Chillout 2001 thru 2005. This 6 CD set was a very big dissapointment, and I'm easy to please. Even if I find one or two songs I love on 6 CD's, it would have been worth it, as I love music. Out of 6 CD's, all the songs sound almost identical and 'do not go anywhere'. A cool intro beat and groove starts.... and then nothing! *ALL* the songs on this disc, except for two songs (which are only OK and I already have) have this decent intro, then just keep playing the into section over and over... you keep waiting for some really interesting continuation of the intro music, but it never happens! I do not recommend this compilation. To put it more clearly, I am always looking for more music to add to my J RIVERS MEDIA Computer software using lossless compression, but NONE of these songs are going to be used. Sorry, but this purchase was a complete waste for me..."

"How ironic that probably the quickest review I'll have done in months is on a release with 6 cd's! This is a colossal compilation of 6 'chillout' cds by the Decadance label.



The good? 6 discs! They're bound to get SOMETHING right with all of the room for error, right? And they do have some good tunes and artists. Even Da Lata has an appearance, along with Koop, Bent and a few others. But it's not entirely chillout as it has some popular trance cuts from 2001-2002... and maybe 1998 with Energy 52, iio, etc. The bad? You could put all of the best songs onto one disc and still have room to spare, let alone fill up five more perfectly fine empty discs with rubbish and mind-numbingly dull & uninspired tracks. I don't know what's more amazing; that someone could make a chillout series of 6 discs yet get it so horribly wrong... Or that the cover art is equally original since its the same as a Nu-Bossa compilation, but from a different angle (see "Brazil Remixed").



Can't recommend this. There are far better chill-out comps. If you want cookie cutter, go for the Ultra series. You want flair, go for Wagram (Costes, Des Pres Cafe, London/Paris/Berlin/NY Lounge). You want plain old chill, spend the bucks for Hedkandi's winter chill and serve chilled & check out The Chillout Room/Chill out Album. But this... best left for target practice. "Pull!""
Quality over quantity!

"I'm normally totally into chillout mixes and with 6 CD's I was sure I would find somethin to my liking... 6 CD's later I had yet to find it. The problem being that all the songs are all so similar!!!! This album was a BIG 6 CD disappointment, not recomended."
