One of my all-time favorite Chillout music producers, Ryan Farish, has coined a term that describes exactly the kind of Chillout music I like to listen to and mix: Positive Chillout. I’ve used this style of music extensively in past ‘Unwind’ mixes, and this release is just as “positively chilled” as the others.
What’s new in this release, however, is that I’ve started experimenting with heavier edits on tracks I use. The reason for this is to keep the mix interesting and appropriately vary the mood of the mix by cutting some tracks short and letting other tracks run their full length. Another reason for this is to set myself apart from other similar DJs who might simply put together a quick Chillout mix by fading in/out some 14 tracks to make up an hour of music.
While this mix does not explore any particular theme, it does have an overall positive, fun and mostly upbeat mood to it, especially in its first half. The second half gradually progresses into more mellow atmosphere that ends beautifully with 3 of A. R. Rahman’s amazing tracks taken from the soundtrack of “People Like Us” 2012 film.
Overall, I’d say the mix is great for times when you’re feeling happy and content and you want to listen to music that reinforces this mood.
