Notes

Front cover notes:
With the advent of the nineties a new decade of clubs and DJ's have floated into our conciousness. Their trip is a journey into peace. An ambient ecstasy. The creation of a new musical travelogue. A minimalistic embrace of everything good about the hard and uncompromising trance-dance of house and the surrealism of ambient instrumentalism.
Ambient or 'chill-out' rooms have been set up in clubs all around the country as an alternative to the dancefloor. Pure ecstasy escapism. Rooms for day-dreaming, fantasising or hallucinating.
This ambient collection is a sound step into the future. A collection of tracks alternatively known as 'New Age House' or 'Ambient House'. Everyday sounds, noises and atmospheres we've imagined and heard all our lives but never consciously listened to. An unfocused daydream with no background or foreground. A sense of not being yourself, of being apart from what you're listening to. A drift into tranquillity, in and out of reality.
Oft played and more than often sampled the Art Of Noise have long been torchbearers for this form of ambient instrumentalism.
This collection has been compiled, defiled, remixed and generally 'presided over' by producer 'Youth'. His thanks go to those who worked after 'nights high noon'.
So.....chill out.
