There's a phrase I use for the stuff I listen to during long journeys - it's simple, like me, and straight to the point...Journey music. (I KNOW I'm definitely not the only one who uses this term).
Journey music has played an integral part in my travels. It's standard - no one wants to be sitting on a train, tired and probably irritable, fiddling around with their playlist. You want to get on, find your seat, plonk your arse down and whack something on that's going to carry you through the long trek to your destination feeling content and relaxed - whether you're awake or sleeping.
Some of the best memories that I relate to journey music involve leaving London on a high-speed train, watching the grey buildings disappear and the green countryside pop up... knowing that you're on the way to the airport and off to somewhere hot and chilled.
I'd say my all-time favourite DJs for these special moments in life would be Fabio, Heny G and the Anti Social Entertainment crew... and probably loads more that I can't think of right now...

This pairing are definitely going to be another firm favourite of mine. I only discovered them recently thanks to a recommendation from an associate.
Ame & Dixon were mentioned to me as peeps I might like and, lo and behold, I do. (Because I'm a glutton for good music... call me a music whore).
This is a mix they did live at the Awakenings Festival in Holland last year.
It's right up my street, I can't wait to chuck it on for my next journey out of London.
