I wasn't very fond of Chill out, but recently I've found out how good it is.

I want to buy some good stuff to listen to and I need your opinion.

 

 

Which artists (in your opinion) are the best out there?

a list of chillout/ambient cd's that are considered classics would be nice too :)

 

i'm gonna try out stuff and actually buy cd's for a change, I've never been so addicted to a particular type of music... finally something worth my money

first cd I'll buy is definately shpongle - are you shpongled

Try the Interchill comps, "Infinessence" and "Flotation." A wide variety of acts from the chill/ambient/IDM vein. Some of the best stuff I've ever heard, especially "Flotation," and I've been listening to this stuff for a long time. :)

I always have to put a good word in for Saffi Brothers.. I love both their albums.

 

Others to check out:

Celtic Cross - Hicksville

Ooze - Where the Fields never end

Of course.. Both Shpongles (!!!!! these will kick your ass !!!!)

Shulman - Soundscapes and Modern Tales

Makyo (all albums)

 

The list could go on forever... Welcome to the world of chill, my friend.

But first of all, you must check 'sh' in the name of artists- Shpongle, Shakatura,Shulman and maybe Ishq -because 'sh' is not in beginning ;-))

don't overlook 'Ishq-Orchid' ... released in 1-cd and 2-cd versions on interchill and dakini, respectively...a hidden MASTERPIECE

Both Sphongles are a must have. And Celtic Cross: Hicksville is a must have. Also, check out Electric Skychurch: Sonic Diary. Not psychedelic in the sense of the above mentioned artists, but very complex and beautiful. Also check out Massive Attack: Mezzanie, Portishead: Dummy, Sigur Ros: Aegitus Byrjun....all wonderful albums. And of course, Pink Floyd.....some of the most complex and chilled out music of all time. Moonface is also cool, very down tempo and minimal progressive.
