The topic says it all. I'm trying to make the perfect playlist of timeless, beautiful, chilled out classic songs that would flow perfectly and never stop sounding fresh and intriguing. Here's what I've managed to do so far:
1) Nightmares on Wax - Les nuits 2) BoC - Everything you do is a balloon 3) BoC - Sixtyniner 4) Future Sound of London - Dead skin cells 5) BoC - Telephasic Workshop 6) Brian Eno - An ending (ascent) 7) BoC - Directine 8) BoC - Sunshine Recorder 9) Autechre - VLetrmx21 10) BoC - In a beautiful place out in the country 11) BoC - Open the light 12) Global Communication - 14:31 13) Aphex Twin - Rhubarb 14) BoC - Roygbiv 15) Orbital - Halcyon & on & on
I fucking love this list. Now I need you to tell me what should be added/removed/changed in it to make it even better?

holy BoC batman. The list is good but it's more like BoC with a couple other songs thrown in for good measure.

This is a little playlist I've put together, trying to form a list of extremely relaxing music, music that you can just fall asleep to (in no particular order):
1. Cylob - w.a.c (unreleased, got it from his site) 2. Cylob - Foid 3. Bogdan Raczynski - Thinking of You Thinking of Me 4. Bogdan Raczynski - My Love I Love 07 5. Aphex Twin - (rhubarb) <- Keep this one, most beautiful song ever made.
6. Aphex Twin - (lichen) 7. Bochum Welt - La Nuit 8. Aphex Twin - Blue Calx 9. Aphex Twin - (z twig) 10. µ-Ziq - 27

There're too many beautiful chill-out songs, it's too difficult for me (I'm thinking to Thievery Corporation, Terranova, Kruder&Dorfmeister, Mandalay, etc...)

guess you're right.. Thank you all for your suggestions, I'll look into the ones I haven't heard and give another spin to the ones I have...
Hmm..Plaid..what songs should I think of? Track4 from Double Figure would be cool (that's the only album I have by Plaid)

This isn't really your way, but I find the *perfect* chill stuff is ANYTHING off blue states' 'nothing changes under the sun'. I absolutely love them all, so lovely, esp trainer shuffle and diamente

AMG says "It seems unusual, but Nothing Changes Under the Sun sounds like an imaginary Vangelis score for a Sergio Leone spaghetti Western."
Now what can be wrong with that? :) I'll certainly give that one a try..cheers!

Zion - most of their stuff Low - Anything by them American Analog Set - anything by them Arovane - the tides album Kruder & Dorfemeister - anything by them (or their side projects: peace orchestra, Tosca)

No aphex!? Common!
I'de atleast include Blue Calx or Quino-Phec, somthing along those lines. You should also include BOC - Olson as the closing track. I always do in mixes like this because it's just a great way to end an album, and since it's so short, it's really easy to fit in there.

does anybody remember...
The Klf- Chill-out album... the cover had sheep in a field (1989?)
it really was ambient, ambient noises in the background... sounds of a distant radio playing Elvis Presley faintly(which was why the record become unavailable i think). i could never figure out if it was just a joke, a parody of Eno, or if they really out a lot of time into it, or both.

Aphex Twin - Tha Aphex Twin - Weathered stone Autechre - bronchus2 Future sound of london - Smokin' japanese babe Massive Attack - Karmacoma Photek - Modus Operandi
Rhubarb is an awesome chill-out song. definitely keep that one! I used to listen to it to help me relax and go to sleep. cliffs is great too.
