:: Café Ibiza Vol.2

Various Artists

Hairdressers of the world unite! Café owners too, for this is your music. Cascading beats, waterfall sounds, bossa-nova basslines – its all here. Inoffensive music, perfect for summer lunches, afternoon cocktails or having your hair shampooed before a cut’n’colour. Some of the more memorable tracks on this rather unmemorable unmixed collection are Utopia Airlines by Electro Mana and Come touch the Sun by Mo’Horizons. Otherwise, I’d suggest the latest Café Del Mar disc, where at least you’ll find some adventurous tracks amongst the regulation issue comedown beats. The chill-out genre is usually aligned with post-dance-party listening, where a continuous mix of ambient mood setting tracks is essential, making this collection rather unique in that it remains unmixed.
