anyone got any names of ambient bands like orb- fsol worth checkin out?
De-lurking... Wow, good recommendations everybody's been giving. Glad to see people reccing Sub Dub, Jan Jelinek (sp?) and of course Boards of Canada, and other good stuff. Check these out: Casino vs. Japan Circumjacence (www.circumjacence.com) Izcom a.k.a. Buug (www.izcom.com, although parts of his site don't seem to work lately, or maybe it's just my crappy dial-up) Donna Summer (no, not THAT Donna Summer) (www.cockrockdisco.com) Curve (well, they're more of a rock band but they have ambient-ish sounds and lots of electronic stuff going on in some of their songs) (www.curve.co.uk) And a really good online radio show is Clay's Pounding System on WFMU--lots of different electronic sounds, generally smart and interesting stuff, and more ambient included than the name would suggest. Most of the archives are in RealAudio but they just started also including 96K MP3 stream archives for those of you with broadband (lucky sods). Also you can listen live Wednesdays 11pm-2am EST. http://wfmu.org/playlists/PS Back to lurk mode. Ike __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful.
