Looking for recommendations in the ambient genre.

My favorites are (in no particular order):

  • Brian Eno - Mixing Colours
  • C418 - Minecraft Volume Alpha
  • Jon Hopkins - Music for Psychedelic Therapy
  • The KLF - Chill Out
  • Experialist - Excessive Refinement
  • Biosphere - Substrata

What are your favorite ambient albums?

Brian Eno - Thursday Afternoon

Laraaji & Brian Eno - Ambient 3: Days of Radiance

Tim Hecker - Haunt Me, Haunt Me, Do It Again

Blood Incantation - Timewave Zero

Christian Fennesz and Jim O'Rourke - It's Hard For Me To Say I'm Sorry

PBK and Jim O'Rourke - Unidentified Again

Oreb Ambarchi - Grapes Of The Estate

Golden Retriever - Light Cones

Kassel Jaeger - Swamps/Things

Growing - Color Wheel

Most of these are probably considered more "experimental" than ambient, but whatever, genres are weird

Edit: formatting

I listened to an album by Blood Incantation this year, great metal stuff and was ready to react, then I went and checked that out and Holy shit its straight up Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze type shit. Have to give this a listen
