Asian Chillout is a genre-blending double-disc set suited for anyone keen on fashionably slick dance music. Select cuts from
Moby,
Bally Sagoo, British writer/actor
Nitin Sawhney, and
Minerva highlight the soothing ambience of disc one. Disc two is equally smooth with a sensual mood and particular tracks from
the Thievery Corporation, Takyo,
Al-pha-X ,and Illie Natalia capture electronica's more sophisticated side.
Asian Chillout is layered in worldbeat tinges and jazz-house bits for an enjoyable listen and thoroughly collected for one of those late night, summer evenings.
