Insolation releases a second double chill out compilation, this time on Insolation chilling...
|
Insolation Records is dividing into different small labels all the time. Psychedelic Chillout 1 came out on Insolation last year After that, Insolation made a label called Insolation Chilling. Now the follow up after Psychedelic Chillout is released, but on the Insolation Chilling label. They have also called the compilation Psychedelic Chilling instead of Psychedelic Chillout. Some labels sure know how to confuse us record collectors..

Prototyp is a collaboration between Linus Wessel (known from Tarsis), Massimo Santucci and Panajotis Tzanoglou. They came out with a Prototyp album (Phantom) on Insolation earlier this year. Here they starts it all with a track from their album. Very slow and relaxing track, with a little bit of vocal and chilled sounds. Track 2 by Oszilla (Andreas Weber) is very nice. A travelling deep chill out track. Track 3 is made by the more known Akasha Project (Barnim Schultze). Beautiful chill out for the summer. Track 4 is a really nice one by B. Ashra, which reminds me a bit of some of the chill out Mindfield made. Slow down tempo grooves with atmospheric ambient sounds all over.
Track 5 by Sandoo takes us to a darker side of chill out with the track Africa By Night. Not among my favourites on this compilation. Track 6 by Kao-Tae (Pascal Makrosch) is a much slower track with lesser rhythms, just mostly pure floating ambient. Nice one. Track 7 by B.E.L. goes the same way, but a bit darker. Track 8 by C.O.N. Sequencer and Milque is a collaboration between McCoy known from S.U.N. Project and Arrow. The track starts off with sounds of waves in the sea, before some groovy deep relaxing rhythms and psychedelic sounds comes in. The last track on cd 1 is probably the best one on this cd. Floating sounds, nice melodies and relaxing rhythms.
Cd 2 starts with another project by Linus Wessel, together with two other guys. They call themselves Sphere. This track is not totally chilled. Some heavy but slow down tempo rhythms and floating sounds. Track 2 by Majune (Daniel Winterhoff) is more relaxing and melodic. Track 3 is made by more known Akanoid (Hilton Theissen). He gives us some electro inspired rhythms with floating sounds around. Pretty cool track. Then we get a track from Sediment 4, which you can find on the Sediment 4 album Alles Wird Besser released on Insolation this year. Nice melodic chill out. After that, we get another track by Akasha Project, not as good as the one on cd1. Track 6 by M-Sphere (Markus Kaiser) is a deep down tempo groovy track. Very nice! Puls came out with an album on Insolation earlier this year (Sparx). Here we get a track that is not on the album. This is actually progressive house and not chill out, but relaxing for some. Track 8 is another track by B. Ashra. Very floating ambient with some down tempo rhythms after a few minutes. The last track by Siebzehn (Christian Müller) is one of the most beautiful chill out tracks on this compilation. Really nice finish.
Psychedelic Chilling 2 is not as good as Psychedelic Chillout 1, but you get a lot of nice German chill out on this one too. Those German progressive trance artists really have their own way of making chill out.
