As far as chillout albums go, I think this is one of the better ones. The sounds are different on each song, yet gives the listener the same tone and feeling of being far away, wherever your happy place is. I highly recommend this to anyone who loves sunsets, moonrises and martinis.
After reading all the reviews and ordering the CD, I was disappointed. It was not what I expected. Out of the dozen CDs I bought this was my least favorite.
This is one of those CD's that you like right away and just seems to get better every time you hear it and appears to be listening for the first time. The beats are cool and easy but if you listen close enough,you realize how good each group is, outstanding musicians and since they're different arrangements from different groups, that's what makes it that much better.
Great album. Great to relax with and enjoy the music. It will bring you in a good mood. Highly recommend it.
except for track 9:The Essence by Plaza Suite. I bought this solely because of one track:Sonhando Ipanema by Barriere. I took a gambleon the rest of the album and it paid greatdividends big time. And what a bigfly in the smooth ointment it is -- totally,utterly boring and snooze-inducing ("Home,far from home." zzz.). And becauseof that, Chillounge gets 1 star less.
