Top Ten Psychill Tracks Of 2017
For psychill fans, 2017 was a year in which the past came roaring back back to haunt our speakers. Crystal Moon – the lightning-in-a-bottle partnership of Matt Hillier (Ishq) and the late great Jake Stephenson of Alien Mutation – returned with a reissue of their classic album “Temple.”
Banco De Gaia revived his seminal 1997 album Big Men Cry with a 20th Anniversary Edition. Twin Peaks inspired Liquid Rainbow to compose The Blue Rose Sessions, and the legendary Silent Records label returned from a long period of dormancy. Memories of the 90s found their voice again in 2017.

Yet the future of psychill is bright and evolving, and 2017 proved that. New artists like COAM emerged, and psybass and swamp music flourished. New labels grew, and old labels like Ultimae diversified their sound, giving us more ambient, breaks, and techno than in past years.
