Far from the Maddening Crowds is the debut album by Chicane, the pseudonym of electronic musician Nick Bracegirdle.

The album is now officially deleted and out of print, making it very difficult to get hold of.

"Offshore", the earliest song produced and released, is also among the best-known of Chicane's songs; aside from single sales and being a major dance club hit, resulting on its inclusion on what has been said to be over 130 compilation albums,[1] it has also been featured in the UK on TV programs ranging from travel reviews to the BBC's Gardener's World and Grandstand.[2]
