I gotta say...I'm in my 30's and I have always felt detached from most music. Never had a favorite genre. but I was always drawn to the mellow ambiance of deep soothing bass and instrumental type music. I came across chill/trip,etc type music through my hunt of mellow ambiance music and I have not been disappointed !! Such an amazing creature we humans are. To be able to compose such moving music through electronics. I am also just as impressed with how well everyone is getting along in the chat :) most youtube chat is full of vitriol and hate. But every time I read through the chats to this genre I see absolute pleasantry, and complete content, as well as people with hurt, and pain in the search for comfort. looking for a release . Which form comes in the sound of these vibes. This music heals the souls!! Be happy and safe everyone. The world is tough, but so are we!!

[@TwiistCryptic]

I did the same for my mother. I also picked a lime from our tree and scratched it hard. We both drew its scent deep into our nose and looked into each other eyes while this play for us. She passes 6 years ago from cancer, but even to today I still have the lime from our tree. And it still has scent. And I can play this mix, scratch the lime once again, and with its smell I can go back to that day and look into my mother's eyes one again. It is a gift like none other.

I put this mix on and keep talking how beautiful the heaven she was going is, she was going to walk on the streets made of gold, and how much we love her, then I went to sleep and when I woke up she was gone. Guys, tell the people around you how much you love them and how important they're to you while you still can, you may not have the opportunity to say it later. Thank you for this beautiful mix, it was the last song she heard and it will always remember me that precious moment that I had.

I just wanted to come back and seriously thank the creator of the mix. I found this years ago back when I was still in middle school, still curious about the genre. Since then I've graduated from highschool. During that duration chillstep has opened my eyes to not only life but myself. I feel as if I am more in tuned with my emotions but as well as the people around me. As I listen to more melodies and the unique softness of chillstep I feel as if it makes me more sensitive to my own thoughts. Any thoughts I've hidden deep within seems to find it's path through the melody. Opening my eyes to the growth of not only my character but my loved ones as well. This genre has done nothing but shape me into the man that I am becoming. And I can't wait to see where this all takes us as we find ourselves lost yet guided in the melodies of chillstep.Thank you Artic Empire! 😌✌🏿

I visit here religiously since this was uploaded. this stuff got me through something, from memories made with my exchange buddy studying in a different country, to countless solo travels on literally the other side of the world, on the road with all the flights and layovers being tired, from getting through an university, writing a thesis to studying for a job, from getting over a heart wrenching break up to just working excruciating late night overtimes. I can't help but smile at it all. Thank you and all the artists for it. its like spending a week in some mountain welness with saunas and spa far away from troubles of your mind. it makes you content with life and what comes after it. truly a soul soothing genre.

I used to listen to this selection sitting in my tiny bedroom before going to University, grinding my Mathematics exercises, learning Japanese kanji (rote learning!), and looking forward to the future. 6 years later and my entire life has changed. I've graduated from University twice, I have loved hard, lost hard, nearly died once, been in fights, learned to party, been drunk, been depressed, got a good job, got made redundant, got a better job, worked when everything seemed hopeless and succeeded beyond what I even thought possible, losing a few things but gaining more. Hearing this pulls me straight back to those innocent days where I didn't know what life could be like outside of my sheltered bubble. I'm 25 now, but part of me is still that 18-year-old lad, who listens to Chillstep whilst studying and who only cares about the gym, video games, and studying.

[@xninja2369]

Thanks for sharing your story with us

[@Adam-yj9jj]

Lost Brothers. I resonate with your story.

[@Martin-ye6dg]

Seems like 👍 u should rite a book 📖

[@jaredtambala3429]

Hey! 27 years old now! I'm back at University for the third time now on the programme I always dreamed of, part-time whilst I still continue my job. That young lad who I was at 18 is receding further into my memories as time goes by and nostalgia is steadily glossing over the struggles and uncertainties of my youth. I've gained many things since my last comment - knowledge, respect, salary, position, weight(xD), and most importantly, the love of my life. I married my true love, partner, and equal in every way in September this year, and that is something I could never have planned for at 25. My growth has come at the cost of some very old relationships which have not survived my growth out of poverty and into a middle-class position. There are long ways left for me to go and many things left I wish to achieve, but I am finally able to say, and believe when I say, that I know who I am when I look in the mirror.

[@IRest.MyCase]

Whenever I feel Like I need to relax at night when I can't sleep I come to this. Because everything that happens in my life does take a toll on me during the day. Whether if it's me trying to forget about my old friend, or trying to put through my head that the person I like won't like me back, or even telling myself that my Best friends now are gonna be better off without me. I drop that all at night and turn this on and I stare at the ceiling in the dark. All I can think about then is how I want my life to be, and how I want to live it. The things I'll do and the places I'll go. All of that while listening to this? That makes everything better in my book. So thank you for throwing this together, it's been helping me out lately. I'll be sure to come to this whenever I feel the need to let myself go at night. Thank you. :,)

I know this probably wont affect you in the least but hopefully you will remember it. I once had a bunch of friends and best friends and would hang out with them all the time , suddenly they were all going to a different school being only 12 this was heart breaking for me as i had to change schools a lot in the past and had lost a ton of close friends. But then i met some amazing people i clicked with them and now have great times and i wouldn't trade them for my old friends. The motto of this is friends come and go but there is always somebody out there waiting to click with you.

So I am taking a Intro into Humanities Class and the question came up as to what we think or perceive is "beautiful". I could not find a specific visual image nor sound to describe it. Until now. The combination of the piece of art and the melodic sounds that it creates make something "beautiful." This truly puts me in a tranquil state. Thank you for creating this beauty!

[@makniflheim8959]

Just keep your chin up and keep trucking brother. I come from a fairly dark childhood myself, of course though.. I can't say much because I know others have and have had it much worse. Just give yourself some time to yourself, for yourself. Know what I mean? Take some time to kick back and really get to know yourself, because then you'll find your real self worth. Don't think you're only worth as much as your parents treat you, because I can honestly tell you you're worth more than words could express. What I'm about to say is easier said than done, trust me I know. But push out the negativity, let it slide off your shoulders. Find music that speaks to you, or anything else you like.. And focus on your future, listen to your heart, understand your skills & gifts.. Look for ways you can apply them in order to climb the latter into a better situation. I did it, it took time, but I did it. I went from being stuck living with an emotionally/verbally/mentally and occasional physically abusive mother at 20 years old(and much worse other stuff all throughout my childhood).. To now living in my own nice little apartment with an amazing girlfriend at 21. I'm not seeking praise, I only want you to understand that if I can do it, you can too. There's so much negativity in the world and I just want to spread the love. I specifically sympathize with you because I've been there, and I know how dark of a place it can be at times. One of the most important things I can tell you, is to continue to love yourself even when it seems others don't. You can do it man, I hope you find ways to make your situation much better.. And live out a life of peace and love.

From the monster dubstep, came the beautiful child chillstep. I come back to this page from time to time in my years and it’s still the best. As other have said, chillstep opened my eyes to the melodic side of electric music in such deep ways. I hope this channel is still here 40 years from now so I may show my grandchildren what I listened to.

[@zambiefloosh]

Nearly 7 years later, currently having an emotional trip to the past of all the nights I stayed up as a kid figuring out what life was. The best way I can describe nostalgia for myself is the times as a kid when you’re alone and we start to think, advance our consciousness of reality and it’s not all fun and games the whole ride. The younger we think deep, the younger we grow up, the younger we mature. Never did I think that I’d lose my dad to cancer at 19 after separation from family from a young age, I’ve been practically physically and mentally independent my whole life ever since people stopped holding my hand. Many demons surrounded me, and many still do. Almost like the negative feeling of nothingness deep inside, but a spark of something. Could make sense, might not. But now it’s up to me to carry the last name of my father. My mental state, the thoughts I have, I need to figure out where my place is in life. Wanting a family of my own, I want nothing more than to be there for my future wife and kids at all times. I want to raise them to be respectful, responsible, and independent people. I am my best councilor, but I’m not my best warrior, demons still live with me. This mix means differently to many people, it has helped cope for me personally.

[@gopherloaf4042]

It's very relaxing and music is shown to improve concentration, and that's regardless of the genre of music for the most part, because it has to do with the tempo/BPM. A steady 60BPM, such as classical music peices generally are, is soothing. Music is magic.

[@animeshkalita9342]

Every time I listen to it, I'm transported to a place of tranquility and peace, where all of life's stresses seem to just melt away. I have listened to many chill step collections in the past, but none have been able to capture my attention and touch my soul in the way that this piece has. It is by far my favourite and I can honestly say that it never gets old. Each time I listen to it, it hits me differently

Watched this for the first time with all my roommates at uni back in 2015. We were/are best friends. We loved each other and had the most amazing time together.
