    What music do you listen to when you want to chill? I'm talking about kicking back, sitting in a dark room, maybe sipping on a lovely adult beverage, kind of stuff. Lately, I'm all about:

    Death Cab for Cutie: Plans
    I'm loving this new album from Death Cab. If you've never heard of these guys, they're a local band (Bellingham) that has just made it to the big time. Their album We Have The Facts And We're Voting Yes is also awesome, but Plans feels a little more mature.

    Royksopp: Melody AM
    This Norwegian duo puts out an awesome electronica groove. This album demands a dark room and a thoroughly relaxed body. Chill. Enjoy.

    Beck: Sea Change
    Beck moves out of his normal party-monger scene into a slower, more reflective mood for this thoroughly enrapturing album. I love this one, start to finish.

    So what do you all listen to? Expand my mind!

    When I just wanna chill out and kick back I listen to Boards of Canada, Pink Floyd, LTJ Bukem, Explosions in the Sky, Sigur Ros, The Mars Volta,Godspeed you Black Emporer!, ect.. the list could go on all night. I really love that Beck cd too SNG, good call.

    Royksopp, great outfit, a permanant spot in my car stacker!

    Kings of Convenience are lo-fi good to chill out to as well.

    Plej do some decent stuff if you want to chill out with 'trendy' new tunes. Also, check out a tune called 'Universal Unfolding' by Gramma Funk, on undiscovered Ibiza vol II which in my opinion is king of all 'chill out' tunes.

    Steve Vai or Joe Satriani, mostly the G3 DVD`s

    I guess I like to listen to something acoustic based to chill out... I like downloading acoustic B-Sides, or Live performances by my favourite artists, it gives a nice mellow feeling to some of my favourite songs.

    seattleniceguy, I agree entirely with you on the Royksopp and Death Cab for Cutie ones, I loved their versiong of New Year. And Royksopp's new album was awesomely well crafted.
