I like his stuff I find it interesting and it takes me to places, allows me to drift into an ambient daze and away from the shitty covid buzz. He releases a lot but that gives you a variety to choose from.

I've yet to hear anything amazing or essential from this guy, but perhaps I missed it because I'm not eager to invest 50 hours to listen to his full catalog. Mick Chillage is a modern ambient producer who, like most others, ought to focus more on quality and try to keep the quantity to a minimum.

Chillage has both upped his "A" game and his catalog over the past few years, to the point where he's emerged as one of our little community's true treasures, the consummate artist working his magic across a breadth of labels and genres. His is a restless muse, comfortable forging machine-made vistas that alternately take in rugged, space-age electro, deepspace ambient, and all manners of electronic sturm und drang; what is particularly remarkable is his quality control, consistently revealing a seemingly endless array of new ideas, tinctures, and textures. And his workload shows no signs of slowing down: 2017 promises an expanding clutch of new works, all of which those into wholly imaginative, engaging electronica should handily embrace. The grass surely doesn't grow under this guy's feet.

Fantastic artist, prolific and consistent. Clean, engaging beats, and beautiful ambient music.
While Tales From The Igloo and FAXology are obviously crowd favorites, and deservedly so, Vaporized and Transitions are incredible.

Definitely gets stuck in your head.
