Various - Chomp!

I couldn't agree more. I'm so glad I found this excellent album back in 2000. It has been the back drop to many very cool, mellow evenings with good friends. It is a uniquely fluid collection of down tempo and jazz laced tracks that pleases again and again. It's one of those rare special CDs that transports the listener back to the first time they heard it.
I tend to gravitate towards this album and others like it in the fall when the days get shorter and darker.
This one is a real winner.

This now very rare CD is one of the best 'trip hop' compilations ever released and veers more towards the jazz/soul end of things rather than towards straight hip hop. All the tracks are excellent, but the best are, for me, by The Egg, Beach Flea, Jaziac Sunflowers and The Thirteenth Sign. The catchy, mesmeric 'F for Fake' is superbly put together by Steve Jones, aka A Man Called Adam and contains a sample of Orson Welles' film 'F for Fake'. My other absolute favourite is Kudo's remix of a very ordinary track by Gota. The wonderful combination of keyboards, bass and very laidback drumming create a very mellow dub mix.
