Is it getting colder where you’re at? I’ve found a release that’s almost perfectly suited for autumnal weather. Ontagon’s full length album “Shapes and Sizes” has a pastoral, introspective, hypnotic, sweet-dreams feel to it thats perfect for those stay-in-bed mornings nestled under the covers.
The album is quite diverse, from the fairly […]

To coincide with the interview with Lo-Kiwi, I’m reviewing one of their releases, “Adrift” by Finnish duo Moosefrog. Adrift is a follow-up to the “Come” EP, which was the first release of the Lo-Kiwi label.
After an initial listen, ‘Adrift’ sounds unmistakeably like a throwback to the trip-hop era of the mid to late […]

Here’s yet another mix that fans of chillout music will probably enjoy. This one is done by German Tom Larson, who is no newcomer to the scene and has released 8 mixes across many different mix labels. Those unfamiliar with Larson’s style will find in this mix a combination of deep beats and entrancing rhythms. […]

This time around, I’m reviewing a much older album released in 2005 by Aleksi Virta. Aleksi Virta may not be a household name around the electronic music scene but he surely produces some breathtaking music.
Aleksi Virta Meets Torsti at the Space Lounge consists mainly of dubby/downtempo tracks blending in jazz, bossa nova and idm influences. […]

It’s been a while since we reviewed any releases from the Kahvi Collective Netlabel. The last two reviews we did from kahvi were pasta-licious and deceptive, now we have a straightforward album which features a familiar blend of chillout and idm.
Kahvi’s end of November release is from Brioskj who resides in Genoa, Italy. Brioskj creates […]

Chillout. Ambient. Minimal.
Close your eyes. Relax. Enjoy and let your mind wanders to wherever it takes you while you listen to this minimal album.
The 9 tracks are mostly pretty repetitive, monotonous, slow and atmospheric, but yet still rich in their textures, sounding pretty dark and completely showcased how minimal can actually be good.
Great […]

From Sunset Last Night to Sunrise this Morning is a new psychill/psybient release from the Sublogic Corporation Netlabel. The release consists of a four track mix by the group Easily Embarrassed which features brothers Nick and Jeffrey Van Der Schilden together with Peter Spaargaren.
The musical journey starts off in a subtle manner in a music […]

So, who is trance blackman? Well, he’s a singer-songwriter and he specializes in no particular genre of music (You would have thought he would have been a good trance producer with that kind of name ;P). Instead, Blackman himself fancies a variety of music from classical to pop to rock to dance.
Opus Instrumentalis: Vibrations […]

Today, we continue our coverage of great Creative Commons chillout music on the web. This will be one of the last chillout albums that I’ll be writing about for a while. Zilent Zpott (Silent Spot?) is another chillout artist at Digitally Imported. Zilent Zpott is a former alias of Marco Torrance who has since went […]

Sometimes I find it very hard to review chillout music because most chillout music sounds good but it doesn’t sound great. It’s also sometimes hard to understand chillout music because usually, the movement in the chillout music is very slow in order to give that chilled pace. So, when changes in the music are so […]

A few years ago, I used to listen to Digitally Imported, the Dance/Chillout Net radio that featured that funny but sometimes inaccurate Guide to Electronic Music.
Ambient/Chillout music at the time, was a good way for me relax and just think since the music usually employed very subtle movement that doesn’t easily distract its listener. During […]
