Just getting into "Chill Music"

well if you're interested in more classic rock/psychedelic type stuff I would recommend...

35007
Colour Haze
Yawning Man
Byla

I'm reviewing a bunch of albums for a contest coming up...so if I run into anything else, I can post it in here later.
 
if you are looking for chill electronica, look for downtempo or minimal house, "chillout" or ambient are other terms to describe this genre. A bunch of mixsets can be downloaded here if you are looking for electronica music
 
Minus the Bear - (check out) Pachuca Sunrise, El Torrente, Get Me Naked 2: Electric Boogaloo, Ice Monster, When we Escape, I Lost All My Money At The Cock Fights, Absinthe Party At The Fly Honey Warehouse, Lotus, ECT...

Pinback - Penelope, Soaked, Non Photo-Blue, Fortress, Loro, Syracuse, ECT...

The Appleseed Cast

The Album Leaf

Explosions In the Sky

???? Not sure if that's the kind of stuff you're looking for?
 
You could go with some of the older Moby stuff
Portishead

For some more jazzed stuff there is always

St. Germain
Saint-Germain-des-Pres Cafe
Hotel Costes / Stephane Pompougnac

But i dont really know what you are looking for
 
Good stuff man, haven't heard of them

I'm sure a lot of it has already been mentioned before, but, if you like GoRABpeed, then check out A Silver Mt. Zion as well.

Also give Husky Rescue a shot, I don't think I've seen anyone else mention this obscure Finnish band...ever...but I'll listen to their stuff at night before going to bed if I'm having trouble sleeping, it's very relaxing.

yo.
try looking for a compilation by Kruder and Dorfmeister called The K+D Sessions.
Aweswomely chiiled out dub, hiphop and downtempo tunes. Really bass heavy and groovy.

I also like Morcheeba, Supreme Beings of Leisure, the Panics, theivery corporation.
For rock style chilled music, i cant go past the flaming lips album "yoshimi battles the pink robots"
Favorite album in my collection.
