Who here listens to ambient music? I don't really know much about the genre. I have some old records from some of my Dad's collection and theyre really good, and the intro/outro tracks on 'Sententia' by Miika Kuisma. Any recommendations??

I like Enigma, if it counts. Not really ambient, but has elements of it.
