I have this ambient playlist I quite like. It's a constant work in progress. I like to play it in the evenings as I'm winding down the day and while I sleep. I also enjoy it for reading because I can't process text if there's any vocals. I would love to hear any suggestions to add. The criteria are as follows:
>no drums or vocals with lyrics, patterned melodies kept to minimum
>songs must be under 15:00 as to not hog the playlist (this precludes a bunch of music from the Zeno ambient category)
>one song per artist is preferred (exceptions for if songs are sonically different between artists)
>generally, the rule of thumb is "Could I sleep to this?" An "ambient artist" is not a categorical requirement as an artist, and music will be examined on a track by track basis. For instance, I included a track by Nmesh (vaporwave) because it is an ambient track.

These are nice, wish it was on Spotify.

Aphex Twin's older library isn't Spotify-friendly.

Can't think of anything else off the top of my head right now. Literally just electronic artists doing ambient.

Anyone have a good source for download?
Nils Frahm - Them
Brian Eno - Signals
Boards of Canada - Open The Light
Tim Hecker - Currents of Electrostasy
Honestly, based on what's in this playlist, you might as well just throw in like half of Eno's discography

his Ambient series is too long, I don't want him hogging up too much space on the playlist. Plus, I've heard it all several times over.

I think top left is S U R V I V E's s/t, but I'm not sure. Don't know top right at all. Can you help me out here?
Also, if top left is their s/t, can you upload it to mega or something? Difficult as shit to find via various blogs because of their name.
