LITTLE STEPS :: Josin - Company (Kiasmos Remix)

Josin - Company (Kiasmos Remix)

Need some nice chill tuneage? I've got you covered. This Kiasmos remix of Josin's Company is midtempo chill at it's best. Josin's voice reminds me of Radiohead's Thom Yorke in a slight way, and I mean that as a compliment. You can check out more of her work in the Soundcloud profile below.

DROP ACID :: Roy Of The Ravers - Emotinium

Roy Of The Ravers - Emotinium

It's great having friends with taste in music. This tasty tune comes from my friend Weston and it might be the beginning of a new genre - dare I say it, Chill Acid. Not much is known about Roy of the Ravers. He comes from the UK and is indeed from the ravers. His Facebook profile said this:

In 1981, deep within the laboratory of the Roland Corporation, Japan - Tadao Kikumoto invented the TB-303. But when Kikumoto heard it was being used to create the acid sound, he ordered that all TB-303s should be recalled and DESTROYED. However, soon after; Kikumoto discovered that the last remaining TB-303 was in fact owned by Roy of the Ravers and vowed to destroy both Roy of the Ravers and the TB-303, putting an end to the acid sound FOREVER!!!

Long live acid! Check him out on Soundcloud, Bandcamp and Facebook.

Hans Zimmer - Time & Remixes

Lately, I've been a little obsessed, with sleep, dreams, a movie, and a song. I have been hearing this song everywhere it seems too. In other movies, during a football game, and at work. The song is Hans Zimmer's Time. To truly put it into context, watch the last bit of the movie.

I made a CD for my sister's birthday with the best remixes of Hans Zimmer's Time and I wanted to share with all of you.

Sometimes, the best version is the live version:

... and when you still can't get enough. I often fall asleep to this and have some wicked good lucid dreams:

Nova Nova - Tones

After many years of searching, I've finally found it. This was my favorite track from a chill out CD I once owned. Having lost the CD long ago, the only thing I knew was that it might be one of the Cafe Del Mar series. I was right.

This might be one of the greatest piano tunes ever. So powerful, so beautiful ... words don't do justice.

MOST RELAXING MUSIC EVER :: Marconi Union - Weightless

Weightless by Marconi Union has been found to be the most relaxing song ever according to studies done by shower gel makers Radox Spa and Mindlab International.

According to one scientist - "The results clearly show that the track induced the greatest relaxation - higher than any of the other music tested. Brain imaging studies have shown that music works at a very deep level within the brain, stimulating not only those regions responsible for processing sound but also ones associated with emotions. In fact, Weightless was so effective, many women became drowsy and I would advise against driving while listening to the song because it could be dangerous."
