Ambient Music Thread

[letterone 1,204]

Ambient music. Calming, pretty stuffs. It's awesome. Talk about some ambient music and post some ambient music! And I do count liquid d'n'b/dubstep/funk/whatever as ambient. Just post anything that's calming and at least partially electronic-based. It can even be post-rock or trip-hop for all I care!

 

Here's a little song I found a couple days ago:

Nice! A Boards of Canada fan. I myself love Ambient/IDM music.

 

Also, I made a similar topic in the past but no one seems to have noticed much. http://mlpforums.com...ad/#entry534357

 

Also, more BoC!

I'm not really a BoC fan per say, but I like 'em!

 

Or were you talking about Vexx? Meh, either way, I'm still not a "fan".

 

Also, post-rock.

Monster Rally. Amazing band and everything they make is up for free on their Bandcamp if you look 'em up. One of my favourites of all time <3

Liquid Drum 'n' Bass time.

 

If ya didn't read my original post, I count any "liquid" genre as ambient, too.

[Dusty Soul 2,611]

The lack of posts in this thread saddens me... Anyways have some more Buckethead,

[SonOfTheNorthe 412]

One of my favorite atmospheric songs. It's long as fuck though, at fourteen minutes. Also, it's metal.

Brian Eno's Music For Airports. I don't know about you, but I find this extremely calming. Puts me to sleep almost every time.

[Kazuki Fuse 534]

Some dark ambient to pull your mind into a bleak abyss.

Metal artist that decided to do ambient. Nice stuff. Probably one of my favorite albums of last year.

[Dr. Nefarious 195]

Aaah, this one is actually from one of my favorite games.

 

 

This was my favorite song in the entire game and I still listen to this.

 

It really reminds me of starry nights and actually makes me relax quite a bit.

[Shiki 5,855]

It's very rare for me to music that isn't crazy fast, hard, etc., but this one gets me.

I already have a bunch of Sigur Ros but I'd like more of that variety.

 

Sigur Ros is ambient, right?

Them's Post-rock.

 

Post-rock is derived from ambient, so Sigur Ros is, in my book, ambient.

 

If you like them, you'll probably like Explosions in the Sky.

[Dusty Soul 2,611]

The music behind the video is what I posted this for. It's just so awesome. Sadly I don't have a name.

[Treeboy 418]

Rejoice! Another music thread for me to take over! Here goes. Global Communication has always been one of my favorite ambient acts.

 

[A Blithering Div 247]

And now for your local weather on the eights.

 

But seriously, Emancipator is the most ambient stuff I have outside of some VGM and 2 or 3 Aphex Twin tracks. Be nice if I could find more like it but Pandora kinda sucks for finding new music.

 

One more because the local on the eights takes a bit:

Ambient 4: Isolationism is a terrific dark ambient album. if you like space-y ambient music, then Jaja's Ascend should be right up your alley, filling up to nearly 2 hours of free, high-quality space-y ambient music.

 

Tegiminis Insanity Enroaching is a dark, droney, ambient album based on the soundscapes of Quake III Arena. also check out his new album, Myth Of PROMeTHeUS, on the same page.

 

oh yeah! i can't forget the sound project uncertain. terrific dark soundscapes all around. this album especially is worth a listen.

 

other good stuff are In Serpents and Seas, where uncertain and another artist called esperik glare are on, and esperik glare's solo stuff is worth a listen, too.

I think it's about time I bump this thread.

I found this song the other day when I decided to look up some Jars Of Clay stuff. It's really ambient and chill and stuff.

[K3WRO 79]

We need more of this ambient, it's the best type of electronic music around. This is my personal favorite.

This makes me high

I might make ambient in the future, it seems fun

[letterone 1,204]

I'm feeling like punching this thread a bunch. Y'know, so it'll be more BUMPy.

 

So there. A nice little ambient electronic rock type song. Enjoy.
