Takuhiro - Blue Hand Chill Mix 2007 (MP3)

Take it down a notch with some North of the border chill-out vibes. Dj Takuhiro blends up a soothing tincture of ambient textures and IDM downbeats. With some classic cuts from Boards of Canada, David Last, Organic Grooves and others this mix will keep your wanting more. I've been kinda down on chill out music lately (too boring!) but this mix brings chill back to life by changing up the flow of the mix with some deft vocal additions interspersed with flowing sonic textures. Keep it chilled.

Genres: ambient, chill, downbeat, downtempo, idm

Hiroshi Watanabe - Untitled Mix 1 (MP3)

Sweeping and epic deep house music can best describe the vibe of a Hiroshi Watanabe mixset. After honing his skills in the NYC nightclub scene (Savetherobots, twilo, etc.) this Tokyo-born artist has found his way into the record box of such diverse DJs as Gilles Peterson to Sven Vath to Miss Kitten to Larry Heard. He gracefully bridges the gap between the stark minimalism of Kompakt and the lush grandeur of trance. Check this out FOR REAL!

Genres: ambient, deep house, epic techno, trance
