Favourite ambient records ?
KLF Chill Out always takes me elsewhere.
Isle of Jura reissued Ingleton Falls a couple of years ago. That’s pretty special after hours tackle too.
Basinski - Selva Oscura and Everything by Stars of the Lid
Only thing that is listenable when you are in the worst possible place imaginable.
Greetings from Tankesmedjan Borgen!
Leon Vynehall’s ‘Midnight On Rainbow Rd’.
Mike Slott - Vignettes

Top quality…
Picked mine up today, great first listen!
The first edition was quite the package with 11 hours of audio split between vinyl and CD. All of it beautiful.

Chi factory, really great
Raymond Richards - The Lost Art of Wandering LP on ESP Institute - blew me away last year!
Eno Moebius Roedelius Plank - Begegungen
Ambient 1 by STRFKR made a good impression late last year.
Sounds great listening to it in a hot bath, just loud enough through a small speaker to blend in with sounds from around the house.
Not sure whether they’d be classed as true ambient but the Warp ‘AI’ albums from around 92/93 by Speedy J (Ginger), B12 (Electro-Soma) and Black Dog (Bytes) were ground breaking for me. And still listen to them now.
Just picked up the latest Richard Norris. Lovely stuff.
All time fave would have to be Music for Airports.
