This 14-song collection features mellow pop tunes from Ian Brown, the Perishers, and others. One of the key contributors to THE ULTIMATE CHILLOUT is Sarah McLachlan, who lends a colorful remix of her tune "World on Fire" to this compilation. Containing rainstorm effects, washy electric guitars, and an entrancing drum and bass groove, this song brims with intrigue and portent.
The Postal Service's "Against All Odds" is another highlight on THE ULTIMATE CHILLOUT. Their cover of the 1984 Phil Collins hit begins with a fuzzy, monophonic vocal that abruptly shifts into stereo on the song's bridge; this contrast makes this romantic lyric resonate deeply. San Ilya's version of "Bellissimo" rounds out the release. One of the most beautiful tracks included here, this song features gorgeous orchestral swells, sparkling harp glissandos, and vibrant brass flourishes. All of this is set against the occasional distorted guitar riff and jazzy clarinet line. Unlike many relaxation albums, THE ULTIMATE CHILLOUT is not composed of ambient sounds or minimalist keyboard layers. In contrast, this compilation spotlights a number of creative pop artists whose music stimulates just as much as it relaxes.
