Leftfield - Release The Pressure

Farhad2000 says...

Someone please tell me why this pumping ass version never made it to the album? The album version is shit compared to this! This is my favourite Leftfield song


Leftfield were a duo of electronica artists and record producers, Paul Daley (formerly of A Man Called Adam and the Brand New Heavies) and Neil Barnes, formed in 1989 in London, England. The name Leftfield was originally used simply by Neil Barnes for the first single Not Forgotten but after this Paul Daley was involved firstly in remixing songs and then in the creation of following music[1]. The pair were pioneers in the fields of intelligent dance music and progressive house, being the first to fuse house music with dub and reggae [Release the Pressure (1995)]. They furthermore were among the first electronic musicians to incorporate live guest vocalists, along with The Chemical Brothers and Underworld. Ultimately the duo have been influential on the electronic genre as a whole, with The Crystal Method's Scott Kirkland referring to them in 2005 as "The best Electronic band period."

Their downtempo music style has inspired a genre which has been recognised as simply leftfield, with several charts appearing in magazines such as DJ magazine and Mixmag. The genre is also known as "Chillout".

R.E.G. Project - Harem (HYPNOTIC)

Farhad2000 says...

As the R.E.G. Project and its predecessor make abundantly and soulfully cool and clear, the hippest and most creative chillout music isn't limited to the confines of European clubs. The first R.E.G. Project -- three Beirut DJs named Ralph Khoury, Elie Barbar, and Guy Manoukian crafting their own interpretations of Arabic classics -- made a global smash on Claude Challe Presents: Near Eastern Lounge in 2003.

Bringing an Arabic twist to the Buddha Bar/Café del Mar scene, the trio draws from heavy house and lounge music in a spectacularly funky and hypnotic fusion of East meets West.

Múm - Green Grass Of Tunnel

This song is absolutely the best Chillout, part of my personal mission to impose my favourite songs on the rest of the VideoSift community... You all know you love it... The related videos lead to more musical gems Icelandic buddies Sigur Rus and U.N.K.L.E.

Deep Forest - Sweet Lullaby

Farhad2000 says...

I remember exactly how I got to know about them, am a owl and used to stay up late in Kuwait watching MTV Europe, they had a show called MTV Chillout that ran my kind of music at ridiculously late hours of the night. So one night they played Deep Forest - Deep Forest, and it floored me, I instantly got all their albums as well
