Back in the mid-nineties in dance clubs in the UK and Europe, enlightened DJs
began setting up rooms off the crowded, raucous dance floors, where people would
stagger in and flop down on comfy couches and pillows, while the DJ would spin
downtempo, mind bending, chill music as a welcome rest and relaxation
alternative environment to the high energy dancing. Elaborate light shows
projected trippy images on the walls and ceilings and the vibe was definitely
psychedelic.
One of the pioneers of this new chill room phenomenon was our own Waveform
recording artists the Higher Intelligence Agency, with their Oscillate parties
in and around Birmingham, England, which transformed the concept from dance
floor sideshow to main event, establishing these chill rooms in their own right.
Now over a decade later, chill music has finally emerged from under the radar in
the USA, though interpretations here have often clumsily drifted from these
important origins of this developing style of music. With this release, as we
did with Smooth Chill - the Radio Singles, we remain true to the spacey, dubby,
psychedelic roots of authentic chill music and herewith present some of the best
of the genre with this collection of deeper, darker recordings by various
talented artists from around the planet. It's Chillicious!
Includes Sweden's The Itch Incident, Germany's (now based in Vienna) Al-Haca
Soundsystem, New Zealand's Pitch Black, Legendary Pink Dots songmaster Edward
Ka-Spel (remixed by Forest), Zen Lemonade's Gus Till, Germany's Chris Zippel,
Greece based Timewarp inc., homegrown performers Orbit Service, Last Soul
Descendents and Numatic Soul and R.O.U.D.O.S., also originally from Greece.
