Afterlife became giants of the downtempo and Ibiza scenes as Steven Miller signed with Hed Kandi and released the album Simplicity in 2000. Miller had already established a name for himself at Ibiza with his Café Del Mar exploits, but Afterlife raised the bar, largely due to the glorious singing voice of partner Rachel Lloyd and guest vocalist Hermione. In October of 2000, Hed Kandi issued this package: a deluxe box containing the original album, a whole slew of remixes, and a few new tunes to boot. For Ibiza this would be perfect for a trip for the beach, but it serves the listener(s) better in the late-night hours where the breeze is right, the wine is chilled, and the lights are low. Sweet sugar vocals and a deep, throbbing bass with pervasive jazzy overtones define the overall sound of the two discs put together. The effect is very smooth, sensual, and funky…

Featuring collaborations with the likes of Sharon Musgrave (lead vocalist on the classic Bassomatic track "Fascinating Rhythm") on "Fantasy", Juanita Grande on the Parisian dubby tune "Far Away", and fellow chill out DJ and producer Chris Coco on the bluegrass tech house "National Dobro", all in all this is a perfect eclectic album by Afterlife. Electrosensitive is an album that you would be as happy to play at home to ease you into your day, or play in the intimacy of an exclusive hilltop villa as the accompaniment to that perfect poolside moment. Steve Miller does provide the warm chill and deep beats that peppered his efforts on the Café del Mar compilations. Bits of soul, diva vocals, disco, house, and dub inform these 15 tracks that aim to keep genre fans feeling groovy and cool.
