KozmikTentacles 1 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Looking for more stuff in this superb genre. So far I have... Steve Roach (The Master!) Tetsu Inoue (atleast his album "Ambiant Otaku") Micro Cosmic & Daevid Allen (Rather obscure, but deserves to be mentioned) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
visine 3 Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Maybe try Space - Space That was a side project of Jim Couty of The KLF. Back in a day he and Alex Paterson teamed up to form this project, but according to some Alex was afraid this will overshadow The Orb which was the other project he was about to start so he left and Jim stripped all of his contribution and released it as a solo album.

Bahamut 0 Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 While a lot of Steve Roach music sounds 'spacy' and some of his tracks are the perfect 'floating through the stars' music, I don't think that much of his music is actually about space. There are often more earthly themes... it's spiritual, about the deeper meaning of life, being close to nature, in touch with our ancestors and stuff like that... or purely for meditation. Even the Magnificent Void is not necessarily about space, but it's definately very suitable for it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bahamut 0 Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 True. Those who like the amazing Michael Stearns - Planetary Unfolding, check out the artist Telomere (not as great but still nice). It's too bad Michael Stearns doesn't release much. He's more into soundtracks for documentaries and stuff. But I read that he'll be releasing music that was made for planetariums next year, so there could finally be more space music from him coming up. He's also going to do the soundtrack for the follow up of Baraka. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

psycHiLLeR 0 Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 I hate most of this space ambient. I would hesitate to call it music because most of it is just a bunch of random tinkering noises filling up time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yard Hippie 0 Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Don't forget Distant System - Spiral Empire. Personally the best space-infused album I've come across. Agree with Orbit Constructions as well, comes a close second Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Redington 4 Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 I'd say Benn Jordan's album, Pale Blue Dot - A Tribute To Carl Sagan is my #1... or at least in the top 3. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DreamWalker 1 Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Distant System's Spiral Empire is probably my favorite. http://www.discogs.com/Distant-System-Spiral-Empire/release/1252483 The Martian's LBH-6251876 compilation is awesome Detroit space techno http://www.discogs.com/Martian-LBH-6251876/release/12482 I like Delerium's Spheres 1 & 2 also. http://www.discogs.com/Delerium-Spheres/master/52030 http://www.discogs.com/Delerium-Spheres-II/master/52033 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hexfire 0 Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 There obviously is branching when you refer to space ambient. First one - a more or less traditional ambient (Steve Roach or Vir Unis, for example). Second - on the new age/melodic/atmospheric side - Proton Kinoun, Gulan, Telomere, Alpha Wave Movement, etc. Third - the Dark Ambient division - Ionosphere - The Stellar Winds and the likes. So, depending on what particularly you're looking for, the answer may vary. P.S. Listening to Mystical Sun - Primordial Atmospheres album right now. And it's pretty spacey, which would fit one's needs depending on the definition. Recent album from Cell might qualify as well, in certain sense. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
eLIZAbETHS 9 Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Machinefabriek - Bijeen, good space ambient Quote Link to post Share on other sites
