Chill Out (KLF album) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Chill Out is the title of a seminal 1990 ambient house album by British electronic group The KLF. The album is part ambient music for post-rave chill outs, part concept album - a mythical road trip (or perhaps train journey) up the U.S. Gulf Coast from Texas into Louisiana. The cover of Chill Out was partly a reference to the cover of Pink Floyd 's Atom Heart Mother which features cows, and partly an attempt to establish a pastoral feel reminscent of an early morning in the English countryside after one of the big outdoor raves of the late 80's. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Chill_Out_(KLF_album)

The KLF - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The album suffered major legal setbacks because of its use of ABBA 's Dancing Queen, and Drummond and Cauty were sued and ordered to destroy all remaining copies of the offending record. The album, minus the offending samples, was later released as a 12" single, complete with instructions on how to create the original album. The KLF ( Kopyright Liberation Front), more recently known as the K Foundation, also known as The Timelords, furthermore known as The JAMs, was one of the seminal bands around the time of the Acid House movement in Britain in the late 1980s and early 1990s. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/The_KLF

Flak Magazine: Review of Zero 7's Simple Things, 02-05-02 Out of that fertile land comes a new DJ-producer duo called Zero 7, and their debut album, Simple Things, has finally dropped in the United States. Male vocalist Mozez shines on three songs, especially the album opener "I Have Seen," which starts off slowly and reaches a dizzying climax, complete with sitar and tabla which come seemingly out of nowhere to finish a great song. The album highlight, "Distractions," is sung to perfection by Australian vocalist Furler, and her distinctive husky voice lends heft to an already powerful song. www.flakmag.com /music/zero7.html

klf - waiting for the rites of mu lots of well used klf sound snippets are interspersed with various choral parts, church organs etc, along with the obvious jimi hendrix samples (harking back to the glory days of 1987) the first track is as indicated above a 42 meandering mini sonic capsule of the klf's recorded output. the fact that the above info advised that the klf prevented this album from being released indicated to those involved with the 'leak' that this is indeed a genuine klf recording. the album, whether genuine or not, is a perfect way to close this particular pop music chapter. www.ireallylovemusic.co.uk /dance/klf_waiting.html

The KLF - Chill Out - On Second Thought - Stylus Magazine Chill Out is a drive through a land populated by the simple, uneducated. This record, along with works by contemporaries (and sometimes collaborators) the Orb and, to a lesser degree, Ultramarine and the FSOL, became the soundtrack for chill out rooms, post-rave comedowns, and smoking spliffs, and in hindsight have been shackled with the albatross of hippiedom. The truth seems to be that Bill Drummond and Jimmy Cauty recorded the album live—without edits, and in one take— at their Trancentral studio. www.stylusmagazine.com /feature.php?ID=483

Library of Mu - The KLF: Enigmatic dance duo If the KLF were spacing out, the picture of them by the sea in the "Sunday Times" magazine of March 1990 confirmed that "Chill Out" was no mere whimsical indulgence. Cauty: "Well 'Chill Out' was done with two DAT machines and a cassette recorder!" Drummond: "'Chill Out' was a live album that took two days to put together from bits and pieces. With all of these shenanigans going on, rumours spread theat the KLF were performing gigs only with Highland sheep, the idea being that a load of sheep would appear on stage as KLF music blared out via the P.A. Some sightings were reported but the story remains apocryphal. www.libraryofmu.org /display-resource.php?id=226

Klf Music and Discussion just to say the chill out album is the best ever chill out album ever,had it for 10 years now and still come down to it. The Chill Out album is a perfect album - and very rare in that. KLF stands for Kopyright Liberation Foundation- hence their first albums were all about sampling other artists. www.gnoosic.com /discussion/klf.html

EMforum.nl / Similar artists to Kraftwerk? Technodelic is a brilliant album, and bits of the first self-titled YMO album, and the second Solid State Survivor, are very Kraftwerk influenced. Albums such as the Musique Intemporel sampler and the untangentised Edgar Froese albums aren't available anymore (except at E-Bay perhaps) and will almost surely never be re-released again. Excellent album, I have been waiting for it to be (re-)released on cd for like 10 years. www.emforum.nl /viewtopic.php?id=1461

SFBG A+E August 4, 1999 Sounds of the earth moving Twelve years later, ambient reached an emotional breakthrough with the Orb's seminal track "A Huge Ever Growing Pulsating Brain That Rules from the Centre of the Ultraworld" and KLF's album Chill Out. The need to chill out became all too apparent. On psychedelics, people were getting out of their depth, and there was a need for something more therapeutic. www.sfbg.com /AandE/33/44/ambient.html

The Naked Maja *Both these albums came out in 1982 and represent perhaps the most chilling and violent use of the acoustic guitar in British music. In a sixth sense, the Shadows lived out their entire career in a series of shadows – the shadows of a richer and brighter post-war America, the suffocating shadow of ration(alis)ed post-war Britain, the blinding shadow of pre-war British showbiz under which the Shadows were forced to dwell. There is nothing in British music which chills the blood as profoundly as Carthy’s pronouncement of “’Twas in Stony Fields that they killed me”; the sentiment seems to radiate and expand to suggest other areas of British life and violent death, by extension to Peterloo or to Thamesmead or to Verdun. nostudium.blogspot.com

Gunnar Homdrum :: CD recommendations :: Chill Out Electronica The Chill Out genre quickly got stars like KLF and The Orb, bands that used to do progressive rock, and therefore found it naturally to make long and extensive concept albums. The Hed Kandi Label has several Chill Out compilations and the "Serve Chilled" and "Winter Chill" series are all excellent double CD sets. Chill Out actually started in England (London and Birmingham), when the rave culture started in 1988-89. www.homdrum.no /reco_chill.html

TrouserPress.com :: KLF Drummond's solo album, The Man, is a tastefully understated country-rock collection of original songs with backing from, among others, nearly all of the Triffids and the Voice of the Beehive. Continuing to explore spacey trance music, Cauty joined Alex Patterson in a side band which began recording an album as the Orb. Born in Scotland but arriving in the music biz via the 1977 Liverpool scene, Drummond was a founding member of Big in Japan, launched the Zoo label with Dave Balfe and then became the manager of Echo and the Bunnymen and the Teardrop Explodes. www.trouserpress.com /entry.php?a=klf

Chill Out: A Guide To Essential Ambient & Downtempo On CD Look out for albums by Richard Dorfmeister's band Tosca and also the self-titled release by Peter Kruder's Peace Orchestra. Except for one new studio album, one remix album, the odd single and a few concert tours they remained largely idle throughout the 80's and 90's. The album also remains a testament to their influence on the beats-based downtempo music that today thrives on the fringes of house, breaks and hip hop. www.ambientmusicguide.com /reviews-J-K.html

THE TOFU HUT The album 'Blue in the Face' hails from, "Appleseed" is also no longer in print, but if you like what you hear, you'll probably dig on what you get when you buy "Labor Days" from Amazon. Laurence Lessig is guesting out his blog at the moment; luckily his guests are just as interesting as he is. Stop by. Check out this fansite for a listing of additional recordings not included and what amounts to the closest thing you can get to a total singles discography. tofuhut.blogspot.com /2004_08_01_tofuhut_archive.html

Ambient Recommendations But if "Chill Out" is a drive across America, "World Receiver" is a train under the sea, running from freight depots in Sweden to caves under the Brazilian jungle, to a dirty bit of sidewalk in Hong Kong, and you're sort of deliberately letting your attention wander from thing to thing. It's basically meant to be a drive at night across some part of America (might be an imaginary America), drifting in and out of consciousness with the radio on. Yeah, those two Labradford albums are perfect for this. ilx.wh3rd.net /thread.php?msgid=1862535

Amazon.com: Music: Chill Out Chill Out is not only the best ambient album ever made, it's also one of the best albums ever made. The general premise (I assumed) of the album was the concept of a night traveler in Texas and Louisiana who picks up various country, Mexican, blues and Bible-belt radio stations, over which the KLF added the typical nocturnal sounds you hear in the countryside (albeit with a few effects, some thunder and atmospheric synths). Yet despite the absence of danceable rhythms, this album over the years is one of very few that I think captures the ideology and essence of the early 1990s electronic music/rave years, not necessarily as an archive of club hits but more as musical analogy. www.amazon.com /exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000003RFD?v=glance

Library of Mu - KLF is Gonna Rock Ya! The current is The KLF, Drummond's collaboration with Jimmy Cauty which has survived two point five name-changes, a handful of number ones, a sampling controversy that led to the withdrawal of their first album, and an unfinished movie project that almost put them in the poorhouse. When we're having the big Orbital raves out in the country, and you're dancing all night and then the sun would come up in the morning, and then you'd be surrounded by this English rural countryside. Drummond is on record as being not-particularly-fond of the idea that the long-playing album is the center of the musical universe, so one wonders why The KLF is leaping into another full-length release so soon after the release of THE WHITE ROOM. www.libraryofmu.org /display-resource.php?id=229

Encyclopedia: Chill Out (Black Uhuru album) Chill Out is an album by reggae band Black Uhuru, released in 1982 (see 1982 in music). Chill Out peaked at #156 on Billboard's (North America) Pop Albums chart. The album was recorded at Channel One in Jamaica and produced by Sly and Robbie. www.nationmaster.com /encyclopedia/Chill-Out-(Black-Uhuru-album)

ReggaeTrain.com...your portal to Reggae music...(Biography [Black Uhuru]) Their first album for Taxi, Showcase, later reissued as Vital Selection, gave equal prominence to the vocal and instrumental versions of songs such as 'General Penitentiary', 'Shine Eye Gal' and 'Abortion', and was a massive reggae seller. The first reggae band to win a Grammy award, for their 1983 album, "Anthem", Black Uhuru was, according to "Reggae: The Rough Guide", "The most dynamic and progressive reggae act of the 1970s and early 1980s". In addition to recording a memorable studio album, "Red", and an exciting live album, "Tear It Up", the group reached its peak with the release of "Anthem" in 1983. www.reggaetrain.com /bioblackuhuru.asp

TrouserPress.com :: Black Uhuru (Black Sounds of Freedom is a remix of the same album.) After American expatriate Puma (Sandra) Jones joined to add haunting high harmony, Black Uhuru joined forces with Sly and Robbie; their riddims pushed the singing along with the force of a tank. A live album (Tear It Up) recycles a lot of the material from Showcase and is only a so-so approximation of their in-concert excitement. The album was reissued by Virgin (1980) as Black Uhuru and by Heartbeat (1980) as Guess Who's Coming to Dinner. www.trouserpress.com /entry.php?a=black_uhuru

P R O J E C T - A - Short Cuts Sometimes it is, but there is always an dark undercurrent making this album something to freak you out, rather then to chill to. Back then, the KLF released an album called Chill Out on which you could only hear very very quiet music, music to chill out with. An album containing thirteen of the nastiests motherfucking electronic dance tracks you're likely to hear this year. www.projecta.net /shortc02.htm

Tower Records - Chill Out * - The KLF On CHILL OUT, listeners are treated to a sonic collage that works as both fascinating listening and an aural blanket in which to wrap oneself to counteract the affect of too many pinging synapses. The very concept of a chill-out room only became necessary within the rarified rave culture of the '80s and '90s, when club-goers needed a respite from Ecstacy-induced whirling and the random hugging of strangers. CHILL OUT added definition and plotline....More coherent and enjoyable than the records it inspired." www.towerrecords.com /product.aspx?pfid=1035911

Definition of Ambient music Their first album - "Are You Shpongled?" (1998) set the standards for psychedelic chillout music. Psychedelic chillout music is the ambient form of psychedelic trance and Goa trance and is considered one of the most complex form of ambient music. (Quango itself evolved out of the ambient groove project.) All four in the series are various-artists compilations, with tracks selected and compiled by Bruno Guez. www.wordiq.com /definition/Ambient_music

HelpMePleeeeeeeease Anesthetic knocks you out which is something you may do to someone who is in a white room (like what they did to that woman on terminator 2). Is s/he associated with the KLF in some way 'cos s/he's just down a remix of Clock's Blame It On The Boogie on CD 2 (which is rubbish for Clock!). Subject: (klf) some question So far as I know the only connection to the blue room is alex patterson who ceased working with cauty years earlier. www.xmission.com /pub/lists/klf/archive/v02.n158
