Chillout

I've been listening to the chillout channel on Digitally Imported for about a year now and I have to say that it has been a huge help while I've been programming at my current job. I know that a lot of companies frown upon employees listening to internet radio, but speaking for myself I have to say it helps me focus, drown out background noise (my group is located in the middle of a customer service call center if you can imagine) and be more productive. I would be curious if there has been any studies comparing bandwidth cost to improved productivity. Anyway, one of the artist that contributes to the chillout channel constantly with new mixes and original songs is an artist named Xerxes. He has never ceased to amaze me with all of the different textures and moods in his songs. His first album "The Mirror Formula" just came out on March 30. If you get a chance check him out!
