context_page_description: Deep & Chilled Euphoria is a DJ mix album digitally mixed by British DJ Red Jerry as part of the Telstar TV's Euphoria series of DJ mixed dance music compilations. Released as a sequel to Jerry's previous installment in the series, Chilled Euphoria, Deep & Chilled Euphoria features more of a "chill" sound than its predecessor, and features an array of ambient music from different artists. The album was described in its liner notes as "an attempt to enhance the experiences that exist in meditative states" where "rapidly produced states of deep relaxation increase suggestibility, receptivity to new information and enhance access to subconscious material," as was discovered in a 1950s study by neurologist William Grey Walter referred to in the liner notes.
  The album was released in January 2001 by Telstar TV and BMG, and was a commercial success, reaching number 5 on the UK Compilation Chart. It was also a critical success, many praising its eclectic array of artists and pure ambient sound. Some of the tracks were exclusive to the album and previously unreleased.
context_section_description: Izbac said that Deep & Chilled Euphoria was "specifically intended" to enhance the experiences that exist in meditative states where "rapidly produced states of deep relaxation increase suggestibility, receptivity to new information and enhance access to subconscious material." He asked listeners to "let the process happen, do not attempt to force it or control it. If distracting thoughts arise simply observe them, let them go and return to the process. Some of this may seem a little farfetched, especially if you do not have a flotation tank at your disposal." He also commented to listeners that "at least there is a substantial amount of post club waffle to indulge in or maybe you would just prefer to close your eyes and enjoy the swirling patterns that draw you down deeper and deeper into the music."
  The album contains two discs of material that Red Jerry has digitally mixed together. Spanning a total of twenty-nine tracks cross-licensed from different record labels, the album has been described as more "chill" than its predecessor. In the words of Matt Borghi of Allmusic, the album shows Jerry mixing together "a cornucopia of brilliant, free-flowing chill-out tracks into a two-disc trek through the darker side of the U.K. dance scene." It shares some artists in common with its predecessor, such as Moby, but also features new additions from eclectic artists such as IDM pioneers Autechre who appear twice on the album, progressive trance disc jockey Sasha, big beat musicians Groove Armada, iconic breakbeat group Coldcut, and "a small army of lesser-known ambient sound artists and producers." As with its predecessor, some of the tracks were previously unreleased and exclusive to the album. The album is often sparsely instrumental, with almost all of its tracks being played at full length, with exceptions being excerpts of Kinobe's "Bayou Barrataria", Autechre's "Chiastic Slide" and the "Pinned Mix" Origin's "Wide-Eyed Angel" which play as transitional interludes on the second disc. The album was mastered by Jay at Node.
