Little Fluffy Clouds is composed entirely of samples from other records...that makes it OK by me...

You should try Origami Galaktika's "Stjernevandring/Eesti Lilled Silma Süda". Great hypnotising and very organic sounding ambient. At Jester Records you will find some samples.

I would have to agree with Hearts of Space. I'm finally got the HOS with Aphex in it.

ENO!!!!!!!!!!!!

HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOO?!?!?!?
yes, most of these people arent listing things you actually requested. stuff like the orb and fsol has beats, so thats not what you asked.
ENO!!!!!!!!
no beats. good strong melodic content. created ambient music.

Hey man, ive been suggesting lots of ambient, different types too, a lot of what I told you is pure gold as far as ambient goes, if you want NO beats first and then move on, Check out Biospheres Substrata...... FIRST. Believe me. Take what I told you before and what some others said into heart.

Obviously you need to own Biosphere - Substrata. No two ways about it.
And you can't mention good ambient without everyone yelling at you to get Brain Eno... there is a reason for this obviously. Music for Airports, The Pearl, Thursday Afternoon, Apollo Atmospheres and Soundtracks...
Other ambient favs of mine:
Fennesz - Endless Summer Oval & Christophe Charles - Dok Microstoria - Model 3, Step 2 KLF - Chill Out

im with InvertedWhale...i think stars of the lid are amazing. for the longest time i didnt like a lot of ambient because it was either way too synthy or it was something like "space travel jupiter orbit moon base 9000". which is a bit picky, but i was looking for a certain type of sound. thats when i picked up the ballasted orchestra by sotl, completely slapped me across the face. and the fact that it was all done with guitars on a 4 track recorder.
you can order works from kranky records on amazon, as well.
i recently bought music for nitrious oxide (their first release) on ebay. top quality, though its a bit crude and dark, but still very excellent.
in any case, yeah. cant recommend SOTL enough.

Although I've already posted my picks, I can say with 94% complete certainty that the album you're looking for is Biosphere's Substrata. If I'm incorrect, then I'm an idiot.

Substrata is probobly a m u s t. But Tibbar, I already sayd in the first post that I own Music for airports, but that it´s almost too I don´t know not New Age but hmm... maybe it could be more dark or something. I like Music for airports but... Maybe other eno stuff is differrent. I once heard leeks hills and it sounded ok! maybe On Land is the thing to get... Thanks anyway!

i read an interview with brian mcbride of SOTL explaining the track names on the ballasted orchestra
i guess the song stemmed from a song adam wiltzie's grandmother used to hum to him when he a child.
which is really weird considering what taphead sounds like. if my grandmother started to hum "taphead" id get severly creeped

That would be off his 'Emit Ecaps' album.
Listening to the song once again..3 minutes and 36 seconds of bliss.

Check out the 'Flurescence EP' by Spacetime Continuum if you want some good ambience. It's damn good; some of the best infact, IMO.
The album can be seen here.

In the same vein of that release I also highly suggest you track down the songs Over and Out and Sunrise by Young American Primitive. Those two are unheard of gems.
