No Ordinary Morning

 

Chicane - Behind The Sun [MOVLP3052 NLD 2023 24-Bit 176.4kHz FLAC]

Originally released on Xtravaganza Recordings in 2000.

Vinyl copies of the first few Chicane albums are as rare as hen's teeth these days, and any reissue editions disappear quickly from store shelves. Music On Vinyl ran a short series of limited edition represses earlier this year and this nicely package double album edition of Chicane's second album was an essential purchase.

The two singles, Don't Give Up with Canadian rocker Bryan Adams & Saltwater with Maire Brennan from Clannad should appeal to most, however I would recommend a playback from beginning to end as this album builds slowly from a gentle laid back start as the tracks blend seamlessly towards the more uptempo dance numbers. 

The extremely calming experience of the Thrillseekers remix of Saltwater is a personal highlight.

Enjoy.
