what is the best lounge/chill music?
smooth (not very glitchy) and not-so-psychedelic...
I want stuff that you can play in cafes or for 'normal' people without freaking them out...
I know Etnica.net was trying to make music of this genre, but haven't heard it.
I'm looking for only the TOPS - CDs with all or almost all great tracks.. can't afford the time/money to track down "ok" cds. |

Greets
Check out the "Om Lounge" Series-- top-notch retro-flavored chillage.
Also the usual loungy greats: Thievery Corporation, Kruder and Dorfmeister.
Deep House is easy to digest too and usually has a loungy feel-- Naked Music Label, St. Germain, etc etc |

Hi Brett,
For sure Kruder & Dorf are great; have you tried the Tosca CD's Delhi9 and Suzuki?? Nice downbeat smoothness...
I have the Etnicanet Macao Cafe 2 CD which is also nice... I consider myself to have a very psychedelic taste in chill/ambient music but these sounds also please my ears!!!
Happy lounge searching, maybe look under the sofa ?!?  |

Kruder & Dorfmeister for shure.
"Sometimes" one of the compilations like Cafe del Mar, Paradisiac etc... can be nice |

I second kakoolalajwal's recommendation.. Chill pill is really really good stuff... specially nice if you got some nice company with you =)
and yeah, that track is one of my favourites on the cd too, Sambosa |

Releases:
All Caf'e del-mar series
Erotic Lounge series (SONY)
Supperclub Presents Lounge
Artists:
Akmusique (probably the best chill-lounge)
Alex Cortiz (a bit more groovy)
Rue de soleil
Sven van Hees
Kruder & Dorfmeister
UnissaKavelija (soon to be released)
I play resident chillout evenings in a 'normal' caf'e/club, and my suggestion is to create fine balance between 'accessible' material to more 'sophisticated' one (such as Abakus, Cell, OTT or Backroom Beats material).
good luck,
A

Hi BrettFromTibet!
Many has mentioned the name Kruder & Dorfmeister .. And as you said, you dont want to dedicate your time and money on Ok tracks.. So I highly recomend Kruder & Dorfmeister's ultimate album.
Kruder & Dorfmeister - The K&D Sessions
http://www.discogs.com/release/75137
Nothing.. I mean nothing beats this cd when it comes to the fact that no one dislikes it. A shure winner!! *trust me* But i have a hunch you allready know of it?
PS. its a double disc album. 1 disc is the best but also most chilled. (My number one landing cd  ) And disc 2 is slightly more upbeat cafe chill.
