and of course, you can always check out my Post-apocalyptic Wasteland set.

How about some new shit for like promo purposes.

Juan Paulino - Quantum Break (Original Mix) [Progressive Breaks]

Oh, wow, "Birth" by Henrik B is really one of my favourites.

My favourite artists these days are Thomas Köner, Biosphere (Geir Jenssen) and Tetsu Inoue. If I look at the tracks I choose to listen to, I'd have to say that "Ambient Otaku" by Inoue is my favourite album.

Biosphere worked with Namlook on Fires of Ork.

Inoue did a lot of collabs with Namlook (62 Eulengasse, Shades Of Orion, Time², 2350 Broadway) and Uwe Schmidt (datacide), Uwe and Bill Laswell (Second Nature), Jonah Sharp (Electro Harmonix), etc.

Ross154 also has "Mayflower."

I've also been listening to Boards of Canada (older stuff), Autechre (more techno-y), Harold Budd and Brian Eno...

I'm going to listen to that Ross154 track that you link to...thanks. What is it? "Apricot."

Often, I go digging through labels like FAX and Erased Tapes.

Carbon Based Lifeforms
Drexciya (or is this considered techno)
Robert Rich
Library Tapes
Solar Fields
Sync 24

Hmm, I have these playlists on my Spotify, "best of" artists, and most of the artists in there do ambient stuff. I'll look in there for some gems to recommend when I have a chance.

Klangkarussell - Sternenkinder

These tracks pull the heartstrings out of my chest. Try the first one on that morning train ride. Almost 50minutes long, a harsh beginning -- and very much worth anyone's time to zone out until its end.

beatless:
Maeror Tri - Myein http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ppMEQRfP6yE
Mountains - Hive http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QaZMWjS7rEs
Gas - Zauberberg 1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVxnbBkCIJA
Bonobo - Black Sands (Duke Dumont's "Grains of Sand" Reconstruction Edit) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jznUrVUzCIA

beaty:
Borealis - Minerva (Hecq Remix) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sDkhCJLKxmo
Shigeto - Evergreen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_q_IBVVFs90
Steve Roach & Vidna Obmana - InnerZone http://www.discogs.com/Steve-Roach-...e/release/90826 (not on youtube unfortunately)

This is a thread i can support. I got two ambient mixes in my sig if anyone's interested. Mid 90s sounds, they are.

I really haven't listened to new releases but am gad no one has posted chillout (i think).

Bohren & der Club of Gore (not necessarily Ambient, but definitely worth mentioning)

Absolutely. This album in particular: http://www.discogs.com/Bohren-Der-C...t/master/313410

Robert Rich & B. Lustmord - Stalker

One of my favorites, the movie is great as well.

Also, haven't seen anyone mention Biosphere yet. Shenzhou and Substrata are ear porn.

As for Steve Roach, I am unable to just pick a few albums. Here we go...

Structures from Silence (1984)
Dreamtime Return (1988)
The Magnificent Void (1996)
Mystic Chords & Sacred Spaces Part 1 (2003)
Immersion One (2006)
Dynamic Stillness (2009)
Back To Life (2011)

Robert Rich....

Trances / Drones (1982-1983)
Somnium (2004)
Nest (2012)

IMO their best collaboration together was Strata, a simply fantastic varied album.

Would also highly recommend the collaborations between Steve Roach & Erik Wollo (Stream of Thought, The Road Eternal).

Another newer producer I really like from the mid 2000's onwards is Between Interval. Secret Observatory, Autumn Continent, and Radio Silence are particularly strong albums.

Im leaving psybient out of here because its already discussed enough in other threads.

Recently, I bookmarked this list on Discogs:

http://www.discogs.com/lists/Best-A...All-Time/120454

I ordered and received Harold Budd / Brian Eno With Daniel Lanois - The Pearl CD (#1 on the list) which came with an mp3 pack.

I forgot to pack the CD for the trip that I'm on but I do have the mp3 pack so maybe I'll listen to it soon. It's on Spotify if anyone else is interested.

I have most of the top 20 listed, but not "Suso Sáiz - Hypnotics" which I'm totally interested in exploring. He says, "Some of the finest ambient guitar work recorded."
