Jokque Posted December 31, 2007 Posted December 31, 2007 Heya I realised today that i dont have quite enough ambient music. I have been listening to this genre a lot lately but i keep having to listen to the same albums because i dont really have that many Im never been into being able to pinpoint exactly what style or sub-genre music fits into, so ill just describe what i am looking for with my own words. I absolutely love shpongle and entheogenic, which is mainly what im listening to. Wavey, spacey, dreamy music that takes you on a journey. Sounds from nature, animals, some tribal singing, etc. Are there any other artists like this ? My rotation mainly consists of -Entheogenics 4 albums -Shpongles albums -Mystery of the yeti 1 and 2 -The 13 skulls albums -Celtic cross' hicksville I did search, but i mainly found album referrals without a context of genre (other than it being ambient) to link it to, so a bit vague for me to start buying stuff that i have no idea if ill like or not.

Rotwang Posted December 31, 2007 Posted December 31, 2007 You should check out Androcell maybe, Efflorescence was one of the best albums of last year IMO. I also think that the Khooman album is very good. Quote
Symphoid Posted December 31, 2007 Posted December 31, 2007 For really dreamy, hazy ambient you should check out Stars of the Lid - And Their Refinement of the Decline. It's great "working on projects" music. Quote
fosku Posted December 31, 2007 Posted December 31, 2007 For really dreamy, hazy ambient you should check out Stars of the Lid - And Their Refinement of the Decline. It's great "working on projects" music.Though I usually like drony beatless ambient, I found that a little boring... Dunno why it's so popular. Quote
Symphoid Posted December 31, 2007 Posted December 31, 2007 Though I usually like drony beatless ambient, I found that a little boring... Dunno why it's so popular. Understandable, yet I find their music overwhelmingly nostalgic and bittersweet. It reminds me of a portion of my childhood Quote
RTP Posted December 31, 2007 Posted December 31, 2007 hey, Jok, try this: V/A - Chilling Goddess (Peak Rec.) You won't regret buying that one, I'm sure The other Peak Records chill compilations are probably equally good, but I don't own them... Quote

Bahamut Posted January 6, 2008 Posted January 6, 2008 and once you get over all the Carbon Entheogenic Based Shpongled Solar Shulmans, check this out: Robert Rich - Numena Tetsu Inoue - Organic Cloud Steve Roach - Fever Dreams 2 Quote
samuelh Posted January 7, 2008 Posted January 7, 2008 My rotation mainly consists of -Entheogenics 4 albums -Shpongles albums -Mystery of the yeti 1 and 2 -The 13 skulls albums -Celtic cross' hicksville Instantly thought of Shulman when I read what you listen to, and I see other people already have recommended it too. Get the albums in the order they were released imo or just get In Search of a Meaningful Moment, that's the best one Quote

He takes you on a mindtrip, i never get tired of shpongle. Especially that track that is used in that shockwave file where some guy is at a psychiatrist, wow (Never was one for remembering track names and such details) Quote
