Super Schiller, January 31, 2003
I bought this record because of "Distance", which is on Ultra Chilled Vol. 3. The song haunts me (probably because I'm obsessed and listen to it every day), so I figured the entire album must be amazing. I was so right. The reviews are correct, their sound will remind you of Enigma, but still it is different. It's mellow, romantic, relaxing and haunting. Perfect if you are a down-tempo, chillout fanatic.

"Voyage" Definitely takes you on a wonderful voyage, November 7, 2002
I have been a fan of Schiller for a while now and always liked their style of music they play, but "Voyage" is definitely their best work yet...My favorite "Dream of You" is an awesome track that I could listen to over and over again and never get tired of with it's beautiful melody, actually the whole CD is that way which will take you into melodic bliss. Schiller is made up of two musicians from Hamburg, Germany...Christopher Von Deylen and Mirko Von Schlieffen and definitely know how to combine Ambient, Trance, Dance, Chillout, and New Age and not be boring like some of those other Chillout, or Ambient CD's out there. If you want a good Chillout CD than definitely pick up "Voyage"..I guarantee you will not be disappointed. This CD is best listened with headphones with the lights off and your eyes closed...just let the music take you away. Enigma fans will love this, but will like Schiller more...Don't get me wrong I like Enigma too, but Schiller is a little better in my opinion

Wow. What happened?, June 11, 2002
I bought the first Schiller album a while ago based on a recommendation, but was very disappointed. I thought it was unoriginal, kind've annoying, and every song sounded way too similar. I am very glad I decided to give them another shot, though, and buy "Voyage." It's great! There is way more variety, but all the songs come together into an ethereal cohesive whole. "Dream of You" is obviously the standout track, and really the most "mainstream." Most of the other tracks are a little closer to "new age" or "worldbeat," and only a couple others feature vocals. It's recorded in Dolby surround sound, which really adds to the ethereal quality. This is an amazing album to kick back and chill to. Highly recommended for fans of trance, techno, new age, worldbeat, and chillout electronica. One of the best albums of the year so far.
