Product Description

CD Description
The legendary dance music producer Nick Bracegirdle (betterknown as Chicane) has enjoyed a fruitful career since the success of the single 'Offshore' in 1996. After this initial success, Chicane worked with such notable and disparate figures as Natasha Bedingfield ('Bruised Water'), Tom Jones ('Stoned In Love') and even indie softies Keane ('Wake Up'), allincluded on this best of collection. Always at the centre of these works is a sense of abandon and sunshine directly lifted from Ibiza, and this release will delight anyone looking to relive Chicane's heyday.

5.0 out of 5 stars Show your support for the best ambient / dance music out there !!!!!!!!!!, 30 Sep 2008
By S. mcgovern "scifigamer32" (uk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Chicane ( Nick Bracegirdle ) has been with us for 11 years ( as Chicane anyway! )His music has the ability to move your head, your heart and your soul, while foot tapping !!! With this, his 1st compilation, you get the classics, never before released tracks ( easy to assemble !!! ) and remixes, plus a new track with keane on vocals.
Nick's music has been a part of my life for so long, he has a way to lift you up, inspire, dust you off and send you on your way anew.
Sometimes subline, sometimes full pelt - but always beautifully crafted !
Please know that you are going to be listening to songs that never fade, will become part of your journey, as it has become a part of mine, for so long.
( I recommend chicane, as well as faithless, enigma, schiller, deep forest, atb - Its your life, just find the right soundtrack to it !!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellence, 7 Oct 2008
By Stevieboy (Surrey, England) - See all my reviews
I saw this advertised on TV and having loved a couple of songs like "Don't Give Up" and "Saltwater" I thought I would buy this.
I was not disappointed.
The versions of the songs are ever so slightly different from the ones I already own as I think they may have been remastered on this CD.
If you like this style/genre of music this is the CD to get.
Classic ambient chillout.
A few mentions (apart from the two above) - "Halcyon", "Bruised Water" & "Spirit".

4.0 out of 5 stars Great...but would have worked better as a mixed CD, 8 Oct 2008
Have no doubt that this a great release and has all of Nick's best tracks on it.

But it does feel like such a missed opportunity not being mixed as a continuous mix CD; it would have worked so much better and crafted a better journey for the listener; some of the songs just feel like they're only just getting started and then all of a sudden they finish abruptly.

Add to that an bizarre track order; Offshore into Bruised Water is a jarring song change if ever there was one, and it adds to the (mild) frustration...for me at least.

There are a couple of tracks I wouldn't class as "Best Of". U R Always and Wake Up definitely go into that category, and the combined 10 minutes that those two tracks take up could have been better used by extending a couple of the better tracks like Saltwater or Sunstroke.

But nit-picking aside, this is a great release with so many different musical genres on one CD.

In an age when many artists are releasing "Best Of" collections containing second rate tracks almost on a whim, it is nice to have one that actually contains classic tracks and isn't something that was released just for the fun of it.

Recommended.
