    Music to chill to?

    I'm in need of a new discovery. Looking for some music I can chill-out to. You know that music that you can have on in the car, listen to on a plane, or have on while you're having dinner? Right now my go-to is St. Germain, but I need something new.

    Any ideas?

    not for dinner though ... Etta James is some fine dinner music.

    agree with thievery corp. old school jazz always good for dinners (coltrane, miles davis, monk, etc). nothing wrong with Slayer either.

    Kruder and Dorfmeister - The K&D Sessions.
    Timeless remixes. 4-LP set fetches around $100-150 in near-mint condition.


    LTJ Bukem - Progression Sessions.
    Instrumental drum and bass at its finest. Often comes in 2-CD ... ignore the one with MCing on it.


    Groove Armada - Northern Star.
    GA's first release and their best showing in my opinion. Blurb about the album here.


    Groove Armada - Back to Mine.
    Phenomenal compilation where each track was recorded in its original tempo. Check the tracklisting and see for yourself.


    Swayzak - Himawari.
    Slightly darker and more beat-driven than the other recommendations.


    Rinôçérôse - Installation Sonore.
    Excellent album from a French group that I consider one of the finer house albums put together.


    Air - Moon Safari.
    Another great album from another French Group. Listen to the first track, "La Femme D'Argent", and you'll be hooked.
