Various ‎– 21st Century Chill Out

Various Artists
21st Century Chill Out
2001 React

Finishing off the React trio that ended up a “21st Century” trio (we’ll do another React series showing off some of their other great releases someday). The “Chillout” phase in the 90’s was a transformative time for me and still is my go-to genre with trip-hop & downtempo mixed in. I think I bought hundreds of compilations and singles and ended up DJing chill rooms. This amazing collection is fairly flawless with heavy favourites Afterlife, Chicane & Mandalay mixed in. Sit back and enjoy.
