There are tons of ambient out there, but a lot of it is mediocre at best. So why not share your favorites? Susumu Yokota - Sakura Brian Eno - Music For Airports Windy & Carl - Depths SAWII Stars Of The Lid - Tired Sounds... |

None of those listed so far. Do you mean 'mood music' or 'Wallpaper music"? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
Either way it's a shit concept unless you only want to feel/not feel the music superficially. |
||||||||
|
|

music for the airports and substrata maybe. |

It's really difficult to sum up the energy to bloody write about any of the ones I like at all so I am not going to give a anywhere near a full list. SAW 2 (Obvious, but it is amazing) Susumu Yokota - The boy and the tree and magic thread. Milieu - Brother KLF - Chill out Dopplereffeckt - Linear accelerator There are loads more I just can't remember any. It seems to be a favourite style of mine. There is something about it when it's done well. It just haunts me to the very centre of my being. I am going to stop before I make more of an idiot of myself. |

I just downloaded some of those BBC Special Effects discs and they tend to get the job done. Was listening to British Birds the other day and forgot it was even on! Brian Eno - Discreet Music Tetsu Inoue - Ambiant Otaku Various - Kougezan Koukiji Live 11th |
||||||||

| |||||||||
|
|
good call on Ambiant Otaku=] |
||||||||
|
|

'Amibent' is a pretty vague description/genre, I agree. But when I think about ambient, I think of how Brian Eno defined it: "[It can be] actively listened to with attention or as easily ignored, depending on the choice of the listener." |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
throw in some old orb records as well |
||||||||
|
|

Eno - Ambient 1 & 2 (in addition Bang on a Cans version of ambient 1 is nice) Dead Voices on Air - Piss Frond disc 2 Good call on Rapoon - Fires of the Boderlands.

''Freescha - Kids Fill the Floor'' Oh yes. Too many beats for me to think of that album for this topic but whatever, they are magic. |

I'm starting to get into Steve Roach, but his discog is the most frightening thing I've ever seen. 60+ studio albums, and I have no idea what to start with. It seems like he's done quite a few tribal/world music/new age-ish albums. I'm not a big fan of this sound, so if I want beatless ambient stuff, which albums of him should I get? |

On Toytronic? No way man. That label got old VERY fast. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
who cares about the label...i'm on about thew release. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he has a few that sound more futuristic and spacey, rather than tribal.. although the tribal stuff isnt as bad as it may sound, he has a very deep and full sound all through. his newest album arc of passion is more futuristic, other than that on his website steveroach.com he has actually categorized into genres sio just get the atmospheric space ones and pure electronic.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
There are a few nice tracks (the beatless ones mainly), but most of it is boring idm nonsense, which goes nowhere in my opinion. I got sick of buying the records after they got obsessed with limited runs in every colour in the spectrum too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
all of the above plus everything that Harold Budd been involved with.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
must be The Orb's "live 93", my first ambient album that i really fell in love with, especially after listening to it on a morning at a jetty coming straight into sea sunrise, straight after an amazing underworld gig...aceness |
||||||||

Thomas Koner- Tiemo/Permafrost Lustmord- Heresy Steve Roach- Midnight Moon Brian Eno- Ambient 4 Alva Noto- Xerrox (not as much a "pure" ambient cd as the rest of these- kind of ambient + noise) Biosphere- Substrata SAW2 is way overrated. |
