The blueprint for Ultra Chilled, Vol. 2 is the same as the solid first edition in Ultra's downbeat series -- which rose above the heap of substandard, commercialized chill-out compilations -- with compilers balancing a few downtempo tracks by a varying cast of vocal artists (Coldplay, the Specials, Black Box Recorder, Nelly Furtado, Bebel Gilberto, Radiohead) with electronica specialists (here, usual suspects like Boards of Canada, Groove Armada, Thievery Corporation, Tosca, Fila Brazillia, and Röyksopp). ~ John Bush, Rovi

I bought this double CD from a thrift shop. It was in an estate collection of hundreds of $1.00 CDs. Imagine my surprise when I started to play. It. This compilation of early 2000,s artists consists of easy listening electronic rock. Everything from Coldplayââ?¬â?¢s ââ?¬Å"Donââ?¬â?¢t Panicââ?¬Â? to radioheadââ?¬â?¢s ââ?¬Å"Pyramid Songââ?¬Â?. Not a bad cut on either CD.
