Comments

Lots of groovy tracks, from the Enigma styled new age, to classical, to Lazy Sunday style chillout. Why are there a number of artists with more than one track? Surely there isn't a shortage of people making this sorta music...

Originally released in the UK with the same name, and also in Australia, inexplicably as "Open Spaces".

Cliches of chillout: Pretend vinyl noise, violins and synthsized strings, vocals which sound like they're from before 1950...
