I wanna make a really good chillout/depressing music CD.
Can you guys help me choose some tracks?
So far, my tracklistings are:

Massive Attack - Teardrop
Radiohead - No Surprises
Mono - Life In Mono
Moby - Porcelain

(not a lot, I know). Any other suggestions along the lines of the tracks mentioned above......?

EDITED TO SAY....... I want this CD to consist of 'depressing', slow music.

    That's by Rob Dougan.
    It's a bit too 'beaty' for the CD I'm thinking of making. Still a wicked track though.

    Some nice suggestions there guys and gyals.

    Songs such as...

    Verve - Bittersweet Symphony
    Royksopp - So Easy
    Oasis - Whatever

    ...are good songs, but they're a bit too fast/rocky for the CD I'm thinking of. Anyway, keep 'em coming....

    I think 'depressing' is the word I'd use to descibe the kind of CD that I'm thinking of.
    Anyone got any slow, depressing songs they can recommend?

    So Crescendo, have you burned it yet? What was your final tracklist?
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I'm a bit late with this, but just to add:

    D.J Shadow - Midnight In a Perfect World (love this song)
    Orbital - Belfast (although not sure if thats what you're looking for?)
    Anything by Lamb - Cotton Wool and Gold are good tracks
    Anything by Attica Blues - such as Free, Tender, Contemplating Jazz
    How about Finch - Mad world (cover) (very nice song, or the original would do.

    Edited because I forgot to suggest Aphex twin - Flim or Fuck (both are nice chillout)
