Ambient suggestions

[connect_icut]

Yes, all three Köner reissues on Type are great. Actually more, hmm, lonely than scary? Does anybody still use the term Isolationism for that type of music?

So lonely it's scary. Like finding yourself abandoned in the middle of a limitless tundra. The cover of Permafrost does a wonderful job of capturing this feeling. Like discovering a photograph taken by someone who'd suffered a similar fate decades before.

That's the problem innit ascoltare. The original poster wants blue room chill out classics. There's a world of difference between towers of dub and a close miked sloth toenail. Not that I'm saying its a bad suggestion, just that i've noticed that what you consider "ambient" (background, relaxing sounds) is such a personal thing. It crosses over with all kinds of minimal, avant garde, free form music and from there you get to the heavy shit that the unenlightened, Blunt-rinsing masses will tell you to turn off immediately, mentally marking you down as a complete antisocial freak in the process.

yeah good woops post that
