  • Brian Eno - Mixing Colours
  • C418 - Minecraft Volume Alpha
  • Jon Hopkins - Music for Psychedelic Therapy
  • The KLF - Chill Out
  • Experialist - Excessive Refinement
  • Biosphere - Substrata

What are your favorite ambient albums?

Haven't heard those, I'll give them a try. I liked Ravedeath and No Highs by Tim Hecker a lot.

Can't go wrong with Tim Hecker. That album in particular just stuck with me.

The Roly Porter one is super interesting. Especially the song "Mass". It's like "POV you're inside of a basketball"

Yeah, "Mass" stuck out for me, too. Overall a good album, a bit too harsh and noisy for listening while working, though. But that also applies to a lot of Heckers output.
