Welcome to another #threetunetuesday created originally by 
I hope you are having a great start to the week. This week I have been sorting through my CD collection and came across the Chillout Session 2003 CD by The Ministry of Sound. Ironically, the story behind this CD is that most of my CD collection was stolen in a burgalary in 2002 and I lost a CD that had some tunes that helped me get through a difficult period in my life.
This CD isn't it! haha But, I bought it because it was the same franchise as the one that was and thought maybe I might enjoy it too. I do like a couple of tracks, but mostly I'm not so keen on it. However, today I will share some tunes from the actual album The Chillout Session 2001 which is much better and has some tunes that I enjoyed and helped me chillout whilst going through a lot of emotional pain.
The first tune is actually the first track on the album by Badly Drawn Boy, The Shining. Somehow the melody and lyrics helped when going through some emotional pain at the time.
I think this album was released at the epoch of the best chillout music at the time. Lots of original stuff and great for those more chilled out days. Some of the tunes could be abit depressive I think, so are not for all moods.
Badly Drawn Boy - The Shining
On the 2003 album, I quite like the first two tracks, Seal and Moby are pretty much awesome artists and were at the top of their game back then. Anyhow, back to 2001! Many of the tracks might not be so well known now.
The next track is by Thievery Corporation and is a classic chillout tune and perfect to drift away to. Something clean and crisp with the sound and non-disturbing.

The album has some of the big tunes that you may expect like Energy 52 and William Orbit. Moby again features on this album, but it is not so chillout as the great tune on the 2003 album In This World. The live Glastonbury performance looks amazing.
I'm really under two minds what to do with this 2003 album, on the one hand, do we still need CDs with MP3s and streaming services now? If the album doesn't have some deep emotional attachment?
The next tune is a great chillout tune from the 2001 album and I love having it on whilst trying to chill.
Amber - Sexual (Afterlife Chillout Remix)
The final bonus track for today is the little known track, which might seem abit hectic at first for a chillout tune. However, it can be relaxing once you get into it.
That wraps up my #ttt for this week. I hope you are having a great musical Tuesday. Whats your favorite chillout tune from any album? and what are you listening to this week?
