 Good Start for your Chillout Collection September 27, 2004

Lounge-influenced triphop has been around since the middle 1990s, and still hasn't grabbed the mainstream by the throat. So the frequent 9-11 allusions to Chill's "popularity" always leaves me befuddled, because the average man on the street still has absolutely no idea who Air, Zero 7, or Massive Attack are. That's a shame, because these artists are among the best of the Chill movement, creating well-produced downtempo pop with retro and electronica overtones. If you'd like to learn more about this interesting and overlooked modern pop genre, "The Chillout Session" provides a two-CD sampler to the works of artists and producers you've probably never heard of. Once you listen this music, you may get hooked on this primarily European genre. I know I did!
Another Great One May 31, 2004

I have all of the MOS chillout CDs and like them all very much, this one included. There are a few mix points that don't go as smooth as they perhaps could but that is a minor note in an otherwise excellent selection of tracks. Great for at work or in the car or when relaxing at home.

I like every one of the MOS Chillout CD's with the 2002 one being my favorite. This one is quite good as well, I listen to it all the time at work (along with other MOS chillout CDs and some Cafe Del Mar stuff and others)and it makes the day go by smoother. It is also good to for listening to in the car or after a night out dancing. While I do not much care for their dance selections (too pop dance for me) whoever is in charge of choosing the chill stuff at MOS is doing a good job.

This is typical compilation cd-money-rip-off. They crank 2 cd full of songs but what you really get is maybe 6 good songs. Others are just average and mostly boring.... No wonder people are opting for alternative music sources.
 Recycled but still good January 3, 2003

If you know that the majority of these tunes have been out for quite sometime you probably won't be that interested in this comp. If not, then it's a GREAT starting point for you. The mixing isn't the best but the song selection is choice. Highlights are: Liz Frasier w/Massive, Jon Marsh of The Beloved (an all time favorite), a great remix of a classic Future Sound of London song, Bent (overlooked in the US), a perfect Thievery selection and an almost spiritual Lambchop song. Whether you're waking up, coming down or somewhere in between it's a great way to spend some time and relax.
