I find myself listening to a lot of chill out stuff on this site. It seems to be a very popular genre and it's easy to see why.
This to me sounds more like down tempo house music but it's very well put together. Like the key pads and the swirly synths that you've used.
It's helping me to really enjoy the bottle of bud that i just cracked open (in the hope it will relieve my writers block)
What programme are you using to make this with?
There's some great synth work in this track.

this reminds me of early 80's electro kinda like the things they were doing when the synthesizers first became available ...nice .. I love a retro track... keep 'em coming brother
Liked this JB. Reminds me of a more ambient Substance era New Order. Have a listen to their track Thieves Like US on Youtube. Either the original or the instrumental version. I think you'll see where I'm coming from. Was'nt overly keen on the change in direction half way through. Maybe that's just me?
First thing I've gotta suggest is working on that odd different sounding (seems like it cuts off too soon).
Hmm, vocal-wise I had an idea. Go n see if DJAerith still has their choral desert wailing acapellas up (layer 1 to accentuate the light n airy pads you've got going now). Next, I'm thinkin it'd be killer if you could find an acapella of someone who sounds like Seal (thinking of something like his song Crazy here). Picture something in the stylings of Sting's Desert Rose (but with more grit & soul) and you'll be dead-on.
Melody-wise, I think you're pretty solid. Can't really think of anything that would compliment it. Beyond maybe an additional layer of bass (shrugs). Anyways, killer tune mate. Lates!
Thanks D, much appreciation for your always constructive and helpful reviews. Id love to find a good vocal for it - still looking unfortunately.I have gone for a review of the old mix and i have changed the hats in the break a bit. Hopefully this will give it a cleaner sound for now.
The track is great and the production is excellent. The only thing I would suggest is fixing the ending (unless of course you meant it to be that way for some reason).
Thanks Mate. Much appreciated. yes - the ending is not what its supposed to be. I was messing around with that riff and left it in at the end. I need to get round to fixing it!
Description : Sounds of the sea and trippy acidy washes with a cool beat and some live acoustic guitar. Written in Cubase with live guitar and keys etc. The sound of the sea and birds was recorded on the beach where I used to live. After moving to the city one sunny day I was telling stories to a friend about living by the sea and started making this track.
Description : This improv recorded a few years ago powered my interest even further than I expected.....recorded using tc electronics pedal and tascam studio recorder and a Fender Squier tele electric....
Description : I used some new "Anthem" pickups from L.R. Baggs on my Martin acoustic to see how it performed, and it definitely beat my expectations. Captured the sound perfectly as I needed.
Anyhoo, this song is almost a prayer, hence the repetitiveness of the verses. As Christians, we believe that God will one day return and take away every suffering and all evil for good; in that regard, this song is almost one of waiting too. Very simple, with vocal harmonies and whatnot. Hope you enjoy this as much as I did making it. Made in 13 hours.
Someone else wrote the words, I was just inspired to use them. I only added the "Yeah" and "Amen."
Description : This is a track off of one of my EP's I dropped last year. It is based on True events. Sometimes when people finally take a second in life to slow down and breathe in..... The oxygen is deflated and it's too late. Take your time people, because time is what differs a good decision over a bad one. Life is precious!

Description : So a guy buys a nice guitar at a pawn shop but returns it a few days later after waking from a sound sleep to hear it playing by itself. When he tells of his experience he is shocked to learn the owner had actually died while playing it. Is it fantasy or truth? Is the guitar in this track that very same guitar? Its all part of the mystery and fun of Halloween !
EDIT: modified ending to a deeper voice
Description : This track describes a magical state that I experienced a long time ago. Maybe you also know the feeling that you can't describe something like this with words ... luckily we have the music for it!
Description : So this is my first Chill Outish track. I was just trying something new and then suddenly this was a thing. Everything you hear is home made. I hope you enjoy. - Mr. Spook'd
Description : That's something i worked out lately
a swing 3/4 hip hop Chill ?? Don't know how to describe this kind of music.
Anyway VOICE NEEDED
So if your interested to try something contact me
Description : A progressive journey incorporating deep ambient chillout, swing jazz, hip hop, d'n'b, trance and a slight touch of acid with a thousand ninjas battling in space. Features a great deal of my lead slide resonator guitar playing. Also a whole load of synths, programmed acoustic drum kits and manipulated drum loops, big basslines, regular electric guitar, vocoded guitar parts and bass guitar (distorted right at the end). If you like deep chill, far out soaring beauty, fat beats and 170 BPM uplifting slide trance controlled mayhem, you might just get into this. In my heaven there is an endless supply of honey mangoes (an exquisite beauty of the fruit world) and even more slide guitar. A 1,000-year-long version of this track plays there on a loop (long enough not to get bored of it) but here I offer you the Earthly 11 min version. You must be very good to be accepted into my heaven to hear the full thousand year version so best start now. It may be heaven's main theme tune but it's not above criticism so feel free to let me know what you think of it. Maybe you prefer the soundtrack in hell. I hear it's pretty badass...
Description : This is a pretty chill track with a certain vibe. I really enjoyed making it.
Hope you guys enjoy it and let me know what you think, any feedback is appreciated.
