Title:Chiller Cabinet
Broadcaster: Classic FM
Time slot: Saturdays and Sundays -2am to 4am

If you are anything like me, then you are familiar with 2am. A couple of weeks ago i was sitting between the hours of 2am and 4am, scrolling through radio stations trying to find something to listen to. Which is when i first stumbled across the Chiller Cabinet, on Classic FM of all places. The Chiller Cabinet, as the name suggests is a chill out radio show, broadcast every Saturday and Sunday between the hours of 2 and 4am.

Like some "chill out" shows it plays some entirely bland and no dimensional chill out music, that you will probably barely even be aware of while listening. But the show on the whole seems to play an interesting mix. What could be described as "contemporary" classical music for that Classic FM audience, mixed in with some easy going electronica music and some of the more outstanding and memorable film sound track work of recent times.

So that the setlists tend to include stuff like Biosphere, Bjork, Sigur Ros, Mogwai, ISAN, Boards Of Canada, and Prefuse 73. Mixed with material from soundtracks like Code 46, Harry Potter, A Very Long Engagement, Crouching Tiger, Dead Man's Shoes, and Somersault.

The following is the playlist from tomorrow morning, which looks to be a particularly strong example of the kind of ball park the Chiller Cabinet is playing in:
