A Trip Back to 1990 - Chill Out (KLF)
An album which seems to have almost been forgotten but which was once almost ubiquitous at the after club smoke and come down. Ladies, gentlemen and other pronouns, may I invite you to sit back, enjoy and Chill Out...

One of the best chill out/ambient albums of all time. Also the KLF made ‘Space’ which is another ambient lp based around….the theme of space.
I’ve got both of them on OG vinyl. And if you like those then the Orb’s first release ‘a huge ever growing brain that rules from the centre of the ultraverse’ is in a very similar vein considering they all knew each other and worked together on different projects. There’s also the FFWD album which is Fripp, the Orb and Thomas Fehlman, that album is also along the lines of the above. Lastly the KLF ‘last train to trancentral’ remix twelve had a longer segment from ‘chill out’ that wasn’t on the original record, and same goes for ‘3am eternal’ which had a remix twelve with another ‘chill out’ outtake remix. Welcome to the rabbit hole :)………..

Used to have both on vinyl too back in the day, along with stuff from the eighties like Whitney Joins the Jamms etc which I sold when I needed the readies :-) Also was an 'early-adoptor' of the Orb, seeing them on their first UK tour when their backdrop was a sheet with Orb written on it. Lots of stuff on EG Editions which predated the 90s ambient dance is worth listening to. Eno, Penguin Cafe Orchestra etc. and nowadays there is almost too much choice!

EG was Eno’s label Alex Patterson was a talent scout for them before the Orb and a roadie for killing joke prior to that.
Plenty of great ambient and classical/minimal stuff on EG for sure. ‘The Pearl’ by Harold Budd and Eno being one of my faves.
First time I saw the Orb was in the chill out room at Paul Oakenfold’s The Trip or Labyrinth club/s one of those, I think it was at Heaven, London back in-the day and they were playing sheep noises over Doobie Brothers, Debussy and Steve Hillage 😄shame the clubs these days are so homogeneous that you’d not get anything like that now, House and Techno alongside Balearic stuff with a chill out room. Totally open minded dance floors.
Amazing times…

Beautiful selection! ⭐

Its obscurity can be partially explained by their decision to delete their entire back catalogue when they split up. Probably wise, due to the amount of uncleared samples / interpolations going on with some of those tunes.

Still sounds magical to these ears, and so much better than the official "cleared" versions on Spotify etc.

Thank you for sharing.

Definitely, these are the records I’d highly recommend that everyone should listen to if inclined to KLF/Orb axis, in no particular order-

Orbus Terrarum - The Orb - LP
FFWD - LP
Chill Out - KLF - LP
Space - KLF - LP
A Huge Evergrowing Pulsating Brain That Rules From The Centre Of The Ultraworld - The Orb - original Mix 12”
Little Fluffy Clouds - The Orb - original 12” mix
3AM Eternal - KLF - Remix 12” with extended ambient ‘Blue Danube’ mix
Kyle Said To Jason - KLF - 12” b side ‘Pure Trance’
Last Train To Trancentral (remix) - KLF - 12”
The Blue Room - The Orb - 45 minute mix - Ltd CD edition
Adventures Beyond The Ultraworld - The Orb - Ltd edition - 12” and LP

All of those loosely feed into each other sonically and have patchwork bits of audio and samples running through them from the start of both acts careers and are ambient/chill out/whatever you want to call it.
These are to me, the pinnacles of what those two acts achieved in that ambient genre and were as close as possible to what they played out when performing chill out rooms at various Acid House/ Balearic clubs at the very start.
Enjoy! 😀

I remember when KLF burned a million quid as some sort art piece.

Seemed like a good idea at the time I guess.... 💡👍 Cocaine is one hell of a drug!

No regerts 😉

(Good group though).

Cheers BB 🤣

As I understand it they really regretted it later :-) There is a movie about it and, I think, a book.

😀 I met Jimmy Cauty but not Bill Drummond decades ago when they were just going big it was around the time of the ‘chill out’ album.
Neither were into drugs at all surprisingly!
Jimmy now runs the K2 foundation and still makes loads of art which he flogs online.
Both of em are as antiestablishment as you like and used to just do things on ‘gut instinct’ and then think about it afterwards 😮
To be fair they generated a huge amount of press and made some number one hit records along the way, kerching.
There’s a book by Mick Houghton that details all of that era and I’d a great read, I can’t recall the title off the top of my head though….

This is one I still listen to quite frequently. Discovered mid nineties along with the orb and FSOL. I still don't know the individual tracks, it is to be enjoyed in full in one sitting, just tooting away I reckon. :)

Agreed, you have to listen to it all. Same with Space which is also a very enjoyable trip.

I just knew you would mention this !! There is also an Alex Paterson version out there with the Jimmy Cauty parts removed which makes it more ambient by the simple fact of having silent parts! There was also a huge limited remix of the KLF catalogue including Space (hour plus if I remember) a few years ago. This Is Not The KLF - I believe it was called. Martin somebody?

space released version is the version with the a.p parts removed. there is a version out there with the a.p bit in it, which is really how the album is supposed to sound, a much fuller production.
