Try Deep Forest's "La Boheme" album, Orb's "UFOrb", and Orbital's "Why?" and "The Middle Of Nowhere" albums. Any one of them will do the trick.

Do your self a huge favour and look up Svend Vath on google - all his music is SOOOOO fucking ahead of any other ambient music you could find. I also like the early works of Brian Eno like 'the big ship' and 'becalmed' as well as the usual Amorphous Androgenous and all that stuff... Aphex Twin's stuff tends to be fairly hard in my experience except for 'selected ambiant works' - Industrial Strength and Digeridoo are all more ravy stuff imo

some quick suggestions: aphex twin - "selected ambient works II" = of the best ambient * "selected ambient works I", too orbital - in sides = amazing ambient techno album, you won't regret buying this for sure from a synonym of ambient, brian eno (the man who coined the term): "neroli" = very minimal ambient, great for thinking - reading plastikman - artifacts = of my favourite ambient techno (also minimal) pan sonic = very minimal - experimental be sure to check out --> the Artificial Intelligence II collection now, autechre is my personal favourite, can't recommend them enough, you should try the albums "incunabula" and "amber", be carefull with the latest releases though cause they tend to get edgy experimental. for a test maybe try to download some of these : "eggshell", "nil", "montreal", "further", "bike", "444", "maetl", "basscadet" boards of canada also good, haven't heard much though of course anything from the orb : i would suggest dr lx paterson's latest release: "journey to paradise" then you have to have "chill out" from the KLF ...fuck i would almost forget : Tangerine Dream !! oh, and from the art of noise, "the ambient collection" !

Pink Floyd's Atom heart mother isn't exactly ambient but whatever. These have already been suggested but Aphex twin SAW 1 and 2 are great albums. They are very different that most of his albums. His newest album Druqks has some very cool ambient tracks, but its not entirely ambient. Orbital is my all time favorite. Snivilisation and Insides are absolutely incredible. Nothing can entrance me quite the same way that these albums can. Boards of Canada's "Music has the Right to children" is great. It takes a few tracks to get going though IMO. Telefone Televiv's "Farenhieght(sp?) Fair Enough" is some of the most relaxing music I've run across in a while. Its not exactly ambient though but its close enough. I'm sure they're is plenty of stuff I'm forgeting. I'll post more suggestion if AI can think of any.

Do yourself a favour and check out Nodens Ictus (members of eat static/Ozric tentacles) download Pluringrium form audiogalaxy and tell me if it doesn't sum up the majesty of that mushroom high! After that go buy spacelines, the only album to have been released (Pluringrium was a single track on a complilation called feed your head) although a few tracks are floating around (from taped releases) they are difficult to find. Audiogalaxy also has Bouncing in the important countryside Somewhere indian (ohh deepanmoody) Long music To occur in a forest... Trust me this is ambient mushroom music, some ambient stuff can become boring on a trip if it's too sparse. I can't say i've ever had to take nodens ictus off because it was boring, damn one time (at band camp) I played that one cd throughout the entire trip! These guys really know how to work the boards Oh and if you haven't already checkout Eatstatic : So much more than trance, Ozric Tentacles can't define the sound really, System 7 more tranceyish good stuff. www.eatstatic.co.uk www.ozrics.com www.a-wave.com/system7

Oh and Spacetime continuum the early years. Albums: Sea biscuit Alien dreamtime with terence mckenna (not entirely ambient but good nontheless) Flurescence ep (the best of the bunch his first release in fact. Good luck finding this one I still haven't)

You would really like Future Sound of London. Ditto DJ Food, Amon Tobin, Afronaught, definitely Boards of Canada (they rock), Shpongle, Spacer, The Orb, William Orbit - Pieces in a Modern Style (album), and maybe Lamb and maybe look for the Mushroom Jazz collection by Mark Farina. Great music. I can send you stuff by any of these guys if you want. PM me and I'll give you my ICQ.
