Relaxed Bond Music Playlist

edited January 2012 in Music Posts: 15
Hello Bond fans! I've been reading these forums for a while now, and I figured I finally had something to post about. So here goes...

Lately, I've been trying to put together the most complete "Bond Relaxed" playlist I could. You know, the more "lounge" type music that's played through the series, and put it all on one playlist for me to drive to/read by/etc. I'm looking at my Bond CD's (I have at least 1 soundtrack release from every film in one form or another), and it's a LOT of music to sift through.

Does anyone have a good list of the best "chill out" Bond music from the series? Or at least a good starting point?

    Beautiful. The perfect relaxed Bond tone, isn't it? Thanks for the suggestion! Would this be called "lounge music" if it had to be labeled? Or something else?

    Agent009 - This is most definitely Lounge Music :)

    I know the feeling Agent, I have quite a few play lists with relaxing music, from Bond, my favorite Anime orchestral arrangements, and nice soft jazz, or Hawaiian steel guitar music. I think it's really important to have such a diverse collection to surround you. I call it "sounds for any type of mood", you gotta have music to surround you in what ever mood you are in, good or bad.

    Exactly. This playlist has been a long time coming. It's kinda tough when you're driving around with a Bond soundtrack playing and it's all relaxing, and the next thing you know you're doing 20 over the limit.....dammit, Bond....
