Ahh, another electronic collection to soothe the senses. And of course, all the usual subjects are out to play.
More Moby, Sneaker Pimps, Everything But the Girl and Massive Attack are for anyone missing those records.
Still, chilloutmix2 isn’t without some fab lesser-knowns. Moloko, St. Etienne, Thievery Corporation and the lush-sounding Spiritualized round out a healthy mix. Everything But the Girl’s relationship downer “Single” is the only song swaying from chill to heartless cold.
With this said, 17 tracks make it easy for a mood swing or lull proposed by strong rhythms and emotions.
