chill out is the practically beatless soundtrack to a late-night
journey along the gulf coast. recorded live by drummond and cauty
(with much unintended help from sample victims), chill out
consists largely of fragmented, heavily reverbed steel guitar,
environmental sounds (birds, trains), occasional synth, and an
angelic vocal chorus repeating the klf's own "justified and
ancient" theme. throughout, drummond and cauty display an
instinctive talent for wallpaper music that's truly diverting,
making chill out one of the essential ambient albums.
the orb and the klf didnÆt exist when 'space' was released, but
both groups were spawned from this lunar egg. space was the
brainchild of alex patterson (who would go on to form the orb) and
jimmy cauty (who would go on to form the klf). the story goes that
the duo were mucking around in their studio squat in south london
making some of that dance music that kept us jumping around all
night in our baggy, hooded tops. it then occurred to them to take
the rhythm track off what they had been recording and listen to it
without. it worked, and hey presto! ambient house was born.
"two albums on one cd!", space is complete but chill out loses
about four minutes at the end.
