Free Chicane CD!

[Drogo]

Sorry, not an offer but I've just found one still in the OEM radio I was replacing. Great driving music!
Thanks to the previous owner I'm now on a quest.

Currently trawling Spotify looking for similar chilled stuff. So far I've come across Zero7, Dusted and Royksopp.

P.S
If your the previous owner I'll be happy to send the CD back now I've copied it to iTunes.

Great driving music is Chicane.

Which one is it?

Leaving Town is possibly one of my all time favourites.

[marctwo]

If you like that then Tosca is also very good.

Thanks Shadowninja, I didn't notice you there.

The one I like best on the CD is an extended version (10.05) of Saltwater. I'm not sure if like the high hat? beat in Leaving Town, just sounds a bit to prominent and tinny.

Tosca is now also on the list.

Any more?

Ah, that would be the album "Behind The Sun". My favourite track on there is "Halcyon" (that's the track after "Saltwater"). There's a lovely remix of "Halcyon" here... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DU9Oa4QvqMA

Moby is quite good as well.

[neenaw]

If that's your kind of thing, try listening to the late lounge on
Jazz FM. It's on Monday to Thursday 10pm-1am.
I don't think I've ever heard a bad song on there!

I love Chicane No Ordinary Morning or Autumn Tactics get me.

Ott. That's Ott not the boyband O.T.T.
Aphex Twin
Thievery Corporation
Shpongle

Just a few to start you off.

Above and Beyond are a definite must if you like Chicane's style. Orbital too I guess are pretty similar. There are quite a few similar trance/vocal trance outfits about.

Saw Chicane the other month actually, they had some new vocalist with them and it was her first gig - bit weak I thought. Certainly didnt do justice to Bruised Water when she sang Natasha Beddingfield's part, and through the whole gig her voice was a bit rough. Not bad, just rough compared to the usual female trance/dance vocalists. Anyway, was a good show, plenty of dancing around!

[Drogo]

Not trying to bump.

Just want to thank all that suggested artists and tracks.
I now have lots more good stuff to listen to.

[knight]

Have you listened to "Banco de Gaia"?

[texasjohn]

"Bent" are pretty good. http://www.amazon.com/Programmed-Love-Bent/dp/B000...

"Air" also http://www.amazon.co.uk/Moon-Safari-Air/dp/B000026...

The "Back to Mine" series of CDs are excellent, in particular the Groove Armada, EBTG and Faithless releases

Enjoy
