Where Mother Goose meets Aphex Twin

Where Mother Goose meets Aphex Twin

If ever a CD was made to be played in a W Hotel guest room that requests a crib, Chill Baby, by Californian musician and producer Cordovan, is it. It's cool as the name suggests, mixing mellow electronica with both original and familiar children's melodies from Puff the Magic Dragon to Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.

What could have turned out cheesy is actually sophisticated and soothing. Check out samples on Amazon or CD Baby but we think you'll like it enough to get the whole album. This is the perfect music to lull your future ambient music lover off to dreamland and you into a state of "ahhhhh". Chill, baby, indeed. -Christina

Congratulations to Chill Baby CD winners Abbey M, Cathryn E, Grazi G, Patti S and Sarah B!
