Sunsets in Mykonos
We’re thrilled to bring you the 10th volume of our Chilled not Frozen series—Sunsets in Mykonos, compiled and mixed by our resident DJ, AWOL. Inspired by his many visits to Mykonos, this mix captures the tranquil beauty and vibrant energy of those unforgettable island sunsets.
As the journey begins, Craig Armstrong’s “Weather Storm” sets a calming, cinematic tone, evoking the early evening breeze that sweeps across the Mykonos coastline. You can almost feel the sun dipping lower as Amanaska’s “Sleep”gently ushers you into the deeper rhythms of the night, where the waves meet the shore and time seems to stand still.
The mood gradually intensifies with Moby’s “The Whispering Wind”, capturing the moment when the last light of the sun mingles with the island’s growing nightlife. You’ll soon find yourself carried away by the dreamy, ethereal soundscapes of Morcheeba’s “Blue Chair” (feat. Judie Tzuke), perfectly paired with a cocktail in hand as the island lights begin to twinkle.
As the evening unfolds, AWOL seamlessly weaves in tracks like Bliss’s “Calling (feat. Sophie Barker)”, pulling you into the heart of the Mykonos night, where the energy shifts, but the chill vibes remain. The iconic "Teardrop" by Massive Attack, remastered for the perfect sunset moment, brings the journey to its peak, a nod to both nostalgia and the island’s timeless allure.
Whether you’re reminiscing about past adventures or dreaming of future ones, this mix is your soundtrack to those unforgettable sunsets in Mykonos. So, press play, pour yourself a Mykonos Sunset, and let the music carry you through the evening.
Here’s to the perfect blend of chilled beats and sun-soaked memories. Enjoy!
Mykonian Sunset

Inspired by the warm, golden hues of a Mykonos sunset, we’ve crafted a cocktail that perfectly captures those moments when day turns to night. The Mykonian Sunset blends gin, pink grapefruit, and thyme, creating a refreshing, vibrant drink with a hint of bitterness from Aperol. It’s a unique twist on a classic that’s sure to impress at your next gathering.

A sprig of fresh thyme for garnish
A slice of pink grapefruit for garnish
How to do it
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice and pour in the gin, lemon juice, honey syrup, and pink grapefruit juice.
