Late Night Tales & Another Late Night will still be the all time favourites for me but the Pacific Breeze compilations are also big favourites the last few years. :heart_eyes:

Thanks for the reminder. Much better than I remember from when I bought it. I must have been in an odd head space because I’d kind of written it off.

any recommendations for Chill out compilations? Of course, the Cafe del mar series is my favorite. I also like freezone series.

I was 10 and this came from Australia which was literally the other side of the world.

All of these songs have stuck in my head and I assumed were huge hits. The Reels version of Bad Moon Rising is the first version I had heard and still the best. Can’t get on with the faster original(!) should be slow and mournful.

Didnt think there was a jefi knights one?
The Colin dale one was huge for me some very special tracks in there - I also enjoyed a lot of the circulation one

You’re right! Ian O’Brien was the other one I had in mind. JKs did a Journeys by DJ maybe :thinking:

Big fan of the ones released on Spacetalk:

This one is fantastic for a bit of contemplation and staring out of the window:

This is another Charles Bals comp, but not as good as the Meduse ones imo.

I’ve been relistening to Vol 5 in the Cafe Del Mar series recently and it really is the aural equivalent of popping on ones favourite jumper.

A little bit cheese in places perhaps but there are some exemplary tracks on this one: Canny remix of Electribe 101 and Levitation’s ‘More than Ever People’ in particular.

Possibly my favourite in the series.

That was an after the afters favourite in my group.
