Nightmares On Wax Smokers Delight

Smokers Delight is the landmark 1995 album from pioneering electronic artist Nightmares on Wax, widely regarded as one of the defining releases in downtempo and trip-hop. Crafted by George Evelyn, the album blends hip-hop rhythms, dub textures and soulful atmospheres into a laid-back, immersive listening experience.

Flowing seamlessly across its tracks, Smokers Delight captures a warm, late-night mood built on deep basslines, hazy samples and smooth grooves. From the drifting opener “Nights Introlude” through standout cuts like “Dreddoverboard,” “Pipes Honour,” and “Stars,” to the hypnotic pulse of “(Man) Tha Journey” and the uplifting closer “Rise,” the album unfolds as a cohesive journey rather than a collection of individual songs.

Celebrated for its timeless sound and influence, the record helped define the chillout and trip-hop landscape of the 1990s, and remains a staple for listeners seeking relaxed, atmospheric electronic music.

Presented as a 2LP vinyl set, this edition features the full album across four sides, offering a rich analogue listening experience of a genre-defining classic that continues to resonate decades on.
