Sure does. In fact I just recently bought FSOL's "Environments 2" CD

And its pretty good isn't it?

Another one of my favourite tracks ever.
Saw OTT live at the Glade festival a couple of years ago.
This was his last track. Heaven.

A grower I'd say...like most of their stuff.

Ah yeah I know this one - class. Shpongle I find a bit of a mixed bag - some nice experimental stuff but like FSOL, can take a few listens to appreciate. Divine Moments Of Truth is a prime example. I wanted to go to Aurora in Greece last year but couldn't make it.

A good post club choon, chilled but with a little edge.

A tad old-skool for my current tastes tbh. I really love music that creates a mood although the move from Trance into Chillout worked well. The album Link Removed (invalid URL) was one of the best CD's I ever bought with top chillout mixes of major tunes by Leftfield, Three Drives, BBE and Solar Stone among others.

Well worth spotifying that one!

If we go on a trip down memory lane.. also from the early 90's and still worth listening me thinks..
Great to see so many chilloutfans here! Keep em coming!!

Great thread -- where to begin... I have over 45 hours of chillout music saved on my PC. One of my favorites:

SIMMO!!

Have you heard any of KINOBE's stuff??

This one is called "slip into something more comfortable"

 

[jetset]

That's awesome - great sailing music!

I have both of those on my PC So I'm probably not the only one who listens to the www.di.fm Chillout channel day-in, day-out then LOL.

That channel has cost me a fortune in CD's! You guys should check out the Ultimae store (www.ultimae.com). I have the entire CD back-catalogue and every time a new one comes out I buy it. Solar Fields, Cell, Aes Dana and H.U.V.A Network are the picks while the compilations "Oxycanta" and "Fahrenheit Project 5" IMO are the best comps.

But seriously, every CD I have ever had from there is pure quality. I have another on the way as it happens

Here's a particular favourite of mine by Solar Fields, darker but gorgeous when it gets going (tbh, Youtube quality doesn't do it justice):

I love BOC - real quirky - but I didn't catch on to them til very late. Kept seeing ppl mention them and never really paid attention. Fool
