Comment:

It'd be nice if that phone of yours stopped ringing, wouldn't it? Hey, we've got an idea: how about yanking it out of the wall and tuning into nothing but the following nightcap cuts, all of which are guaranteed to numb your nerves and wash your worries away. Not just the big-time balladry of Coldplay or Feist, either; if anything, our [i]Indie Chillout[/i] Essentials leans to the left with such stars and buzzed-about next-big-things as Bon Iver, Modest Mouse, Iron & Wine, Bright Eyes, Sufjan Stevens, Yo La Tengo, and Belle & Sebastian. All and all, we've covered enough subgenres and scenes to fill the racks of any taste-making record store, leaving you feeling as if you've just been worked over with warm stones and tea tree oil. Night-y night.
