[Closed] Ambient Music Collection

you can't really have one without the other...

You should check out Brian Eno's "Music for airports'.
In fact no. No you shouldn't.

There's YouTube videos of literally hours of stuff like rain, & passing traffic. 😯

I love the [url= http://somafm.com/ ]Soma[/url] ambient stations...

V much enjoying the album Mesoscaphe at the mo (and I like Music for Airports 😳 )...

Just for patriotpro:

Done on zee iPad 😉

Forgot how much I love that Aphex Twin tune, thanks.

This past week I've been pretty much obsessed with Jon Hopkin's Imunity album. The ambient stuff on it is beautiful.

This is a reworked version of an album track.

Title track:

Okay, would someone like to point out what I'm doing wrong in trying to embed video there?

I think you need the http:// in there, but it can't be https://

Countzero - tell a knuckle dragger how to do so 😛

This is rarely far from my playlist;

Oops double post

I've got this badger, apparently it's worth over a grAND Now

SASHA AND DIGWEED

Also the back to mine compilations are great.

I love Global Communication 76:14.

The fourth track 9:39 is the best

Biosphere - Substrata is a great album for relaxing.

Kobresia is one of my favourites and when I play this at home on the hifi it really makes the woofers move in and out in a strange way!

Biosphere - Substrata is a great album

Oh aye, it's superb - hugely atmospheric. Ace use of [i]Twin Peaks[/i] samples, too.

Global Communication's [i]76:14[/i] is one of my favourite albums - forever evocative (to me) of riding on the Wilts/Dorset border, in the summer before I went up to uni. Can hardly believe that was nearly twenty years ago... 😯

Hopefully posted on correct thread. I put this on a thread about the banking crisis by mistake.

Just in case you have not come across it before, Osmos (a game for iosandroid) is well worth ity for the music.

But its got to be chill out / klf, does it every time

Not listened to all yet but some lovely stuff so far. Keep em coming. 8)

try some Mirror System

Robin Guthrie ?– Drifting A.F.U - if you can track it down, ex Cocteau twins, this is special.
DJ food DJ shadow ambient mix [url= https://soundcloud.com/strictly/dj-shadow-trip-out-dj-food-mx1 ]https://soundcloud.com/strictly/dj-shadow-trip-out-dj-food-mx1[/url]

I cold find some real use for this thread. Insomnia nights are spent with my iPod Nano and ambient music drifting in and out of sleep.
Few of my faves

More chillout that proper ambient, however K+D sessions is a great album. Also try
Tosca
Aim
Darren Emerson Textures
St Germain
Smith and Mighty
Thievery Corporation
Boards of Canada
Photek
4 Hero

The KLF for their Chill Out LP...

Absolutely adore the Orb, a personal fave track is , Spanish Castles in Space...and whatever they played at Glasto 1993 🙂

Also Autechre and Sun Electric from around the same time...

This past week I've been pretty much obsessed with Jon Hopkin's Imunity album. The ambient stuff on it is beautiful

One of my records of the year. Truly excellent.

Yeah. Aphex Twin. Nuff said.

however K+D sessions is a great album.

Blew me away when I first heard them, I didn't know music like it existed.

Will be listening later to thread later. Lot of new music been posted already which is what I was after. Keep em coming.

An ambient thread with no mention of Pete Namlook (RIP) and his FAX label? Shocking!

I love a bit of carbon based Lifeforms, are they classed as ambient?

Dreamfish

The break at 4:30???
Sublime.

For DezB:

Ooh, is there a 10 minute version of that? 🙂

TWOS:

Something a bit more upbeat, but still horizontal 😉

This bloke is also in the Glitch Mob, some of his solo stuff as Of Porcelain is fab.

Alva Noto & Ryuichi Sakamoto

Richard Skelton. The sounds of Pennine moors.

One of my favourties from back in the day.

All ace.

Stone In Focus isn't available to buy, but can be found here : http://www.ilictronix.com/2010/09/very-warped-history-3-1994-2-of-2.html

Pushing the boundaries of you might call 'ambient' this one.

Def check Drum cell out if you like techno, especially minimal/dark...

Have we done Machinefabrik?

Ps that ilictronix is a good one. Cheers for that.

Had totally forgotten about Stone in Focus. I've got incredible memories of waiting an age for SAW2 to come out, and then it being totally different to what I expected. [b]And so much better[/b] 🙂 Here is a piece of Aphex Easy Listening.
