Customer Reviews:

Buddha Bar Specilist,.......2007-04-08

A beautiful collection of smooth rythms
a must for lounge
Check out opera to relax in this collection they have great stuff on cd

Hypnotic and soaring.......2007-04-03

As with all the other Budda Lounge CDs, this is an awesome mix of hypnotic and relaxing music. Unlike some music that's relaxing because it is lifeless, this is relaxing because it allows the mind and spirit to soar and drift in and out of reality. Beautiful.

not really "lounge" per se.......2007-03-15

This is a great new age, instrumental music disc but not really "lounge" per se according to the popular definition set by such things as Hotel Costes, Paris Lounge or Buddha Bar series.

FYI.

what was I thinking?.......2005-12-27

With so much instrumentation in global music, why laaaaaaaaay on that synthesizer? Track 10 was the only cut worth anything.

Not the Buddha Bar Series.......2005-03-03

Nice background music, but definitely NOT the Buddha Bar experience.

"cinema's main stay themes prevail ~ City of Prague".......2004-08-15

What a crowning achievement to bring "Reel Chill:Cinematic Chillout Album", released by Silva America and featuring The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra and the Crouch End Festival Chorus ~ conductors are Mark Ayres, Paul Bateman, Rick Clark, James Fitzpatrick, Nic Raine and David Temple director of the chorus ~ one can only expect the highest quality of performances and quench the thirst of all "film-score-buffs".

Sit back and unleash the first disc with composers ~ Albinoni, Craig Armstrong, John Barry, Vladimir Cosma, Enya & Nicky Ryan, Handel, Francis Lai, Ennio Morricone, Sean O'Riorda, Nino Rota, Ryvichi Sakamoto and Vangelis ~ taking each film score cue "BILITIS", "CHARIOTS OF FIRE", "CINEMA PARADISO", "DIVA", "GALLIPOLI", "THE LORD OF THE RINGS:THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING", "BARRY LYNDON", "MERRY CHRISTMAS MR. LAWRENCE", "MIDNIGHT COWBOY", "THE MISSION", "ONCE UPON A TIME IN AMERICA", "ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST", "ROMEO & JULIET" and "ROMEO + JULIET", with arrangements that soar and then simmer into pure meditation of grandeur ~ classic film music prevails, as orchestration comes to the surface with pure originality ~ one masterpiece after another is long last presented as it should have been, is cause for celebration ~ each cue is a distinctive gift for striking modernism, touching on the transition of the period in this planets history.

Second disc is waiting in the wings are composers ~ Samuel Barber, John Barry, Patrick Cassidy, James Horner, Mahler, Mascagni, Stanley Myers, Thomas Newman, Michael Nyman, Howard Shore, John Williams and Hans Zimmer/Lisa Gerrard ~ take a musical ride with "AMERICAN BEAUTY", "A.I. ARTIFICAL INTELLIGENCE", "DEATH IN VENICE", "DEER HUNTER", "GLADIATOR", "HANNIBAL", "THE LORD OF THE RINGS:RETURN OF THE KING", "ON HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE", "OUT OF AFRICA", "PATRIOT GAMES", "THE PIANO", "PLATOON", "RAGING BULL", "SOMEWHERE IN TIME" and "YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE" ~ our composers with passion and skill for exploring human emotions, coupled with a unique gift for striking exotic orchestral colors, make this with all it's splendor unforgettable ~ themes that ring with familiarity as each film comes to mind through music.

Silva America gives the collector a treasure of thirty film cues that any "film-score-buff" would die for ~ in the past James Fitzpatrick (producer), Reynold da Silva (executive producer), mastered by Rick Clark and David Stoner (release co-ordinator) have given us compilation with such expertise and this one is no exception ~ keep up the outstanding limited editions and deluxe package releases, with your signature tidbits for all film music fans that's in all of us...gotta love it!

Excellent Compilation - Just Not Technically a Chill Out CD.......2006-01-15

'Chill' is a technically a dance track track that unwinds you as the sun is coming up and the DJ wants to ease you into the morning. It must have a beat - otherwise, it's not a chill out track.

The term has been lifted by others to mean anything meditative, new age, world, soft, etc ... so while this is a fine compilation, it is not really a chill out CD.

One disc is actually a fine collection of Trip Hop/near Gao Trance tracks and it's mostly Indian (hence the Gao) but that doesn't really matter, it's solid trip-hop but it's misleading to label anything with vocals in another language 'chill' but I guess it's easier to sell than New Age/World or Trip Hop.

The other disc is also fine (mostly) Indian tracks with some Spanish tracks that is a nice collection of solid tracks but it is most definitely not chill - but again, they didn't want to scare people by labeling it 'world' music which is what it really is.

So, if you're looking for true 'chill' dance tracks - these discs aren't it. If you want some pretty solid trip hop tracks performed by non-English artists, one of the disc will make you happy. If you like to broaden your music horizons, the other disc is fine collection of interesting 'world' tracks so really just minus some stars for trying to mislead you.

This is the worst Chill Out compilation I've heard.......2004-07-17

If this music is considered Chill Out, then apparently David Visan changed the definition of the genre and didn't tell the rest of the world. How french of him! I don't know WHAT this music is. It was either so dull, it bored me to tears, or it was so annoying that I just skipped right through the tracks. I MUCH MORE recommend Stephane Pompougnac's Hotel Costes series, which sounds like ambience meets Edith Piaf (awesome!) and any of the Cafe del Mar series mixed by Jose Padilla (volumes 1 -6). Chill Out in Paris 2 was a total bust and I regret even having bought it.

amaaazzzzinnnnggggg!!!!!!.......2004-04-24

could there ever be a better chill out collection? the answer is NO WAY!!! just lay down and close your eyes while listeniny to that great mix of Arabic and Spanish rythems. Let the music take you there. Enjoy.

Different but not good chill out.......2004-01-06

When I saw the CD first, I had great expectations. This cd is different than other chill out cd, i accept that. The cd has diversity in it and different tones and rthyms. If you want to listen to some strange music, this cd is good for you. but if we look at it as a chill out cd, i would not recommend it to you. Ministry of Sound's Chillout Sessions , Pompougnac's Hotel Costes cds are much better than this one. For archieve, it is a good cd to have anyways.

Five stars doesn't cover it........2002-12-25

David Visan's "Buddha Bar IV" and first "Chillout in Paris" compilation were, to my ear, uneven at best, displays of a wide range of material from the sublime to the uninspired to the downright horrible. But take it from a listener who's addicted to world/chillout music, and who is always seeking out my next, new "fix": "Chill Out in Paris 2" is without a question the ABSOLUTE BEST CD I own of this genre. It surpasses any of my favorites from the "Hotel Costes" and "Cafe del Mar" series. In fact, the only recording that stands up to "Chill Out in Paris 2" is the over-the-moon masterpiece, "Buddha Bar 1" by Claude Challe.

Put this CD in your system and you'll be on a vacation that Alice in Wonderland would envy. Buy it, you can't go wrong. Any of the reviewers who gave this aural gem less than five-stars is simply not a fan of this style of music. Superb, utterly original selections, recorded, mixed and blended beyond perfection.
