No one is super similar, but try out Shulman for something close.

 

The MOST Shponglelike stuff you can find is the track "The Receptive (jacuzzi mix)" by Younger Brother, since it's Simon and his GF. Still, it's only one track.

 

Now to save a lot of people time, good chill stuff that everyone always recommends usually includes:

The Orb

Future Sound of London

Makyo

Saafi Brothers

Banco de Gaia

Boards of Canada

Celtic Cross

Karsh Kale

Ooze

Solar Quest

and somebody always mentions Klaus Shulze - Crystal Lake.

 

Did I miss any?

 

Damn, I need to get work on the FAQ. I can already predict other people's answers to questions.

One of the things that makes Shpongle so special is that it they have a very individual sound, but there are many many chillout artists who make fantastic stuff that you should like if you enjoy Shpongle.

 

If you are looking for some Shpongley elements - dub beats, eastern influences etc, then I go along with all that bugbread has mentioned, but would add:

 

Dub Trees

Kumba Mela Experiment

Subsurfing / Alien Soap Opera

TIP - mystical experiences & mystery of the yeti 1&2

Angel Tears

Asura

Digital Mystery Tour

Ochi Brothers

Padmasana

Sounds from the Ground

Toires

It's amazing: nobody mentioned the Kumharas Compilation (on S.S.T.) ?!

Is it unknown or am I the one person who finds a link between them?

Doesn't your head feel like a frisbee when you listen "Jörg On Mushroom - The Messager" (track 5 on Kumharas comp.)

The Messenger is a frickin' awesome song, but I don't find it particularly Shpongle-like, nor do I find it to be psy-ambient.
