Perhaps a difficult one, for me, so many great tunes to choose from, but what floats ya' boat when it comes to chillin'?

Massive Attack, Portishead or Zero 7 does it for me (just can't decide which one I prefer!!).

What tune & why does it for you?

was on a lads holiday in ibiza in 99 i think and a few of us had been on a 2 or 3 day bender :$ Anyways i bought this in san antonio before we headed back to the room for some rest and a smoke. Nobody was talkin durin the album and i just presumed were asleep until this track came on and i was just blown away by it. As it finished I heard a voice from one of the beds mutter " wot a fuckin tune" followed by the other lad agreein and shoutin me to replay it which i did around 3 times consecutive i think. To make it even more memorable, it was dropped the following evening at cafe del mar durin the sunset, since then everytime i hear it .. im in ibiza :cool:
