jordanrooben Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 I'm just wondering if there are any ambient tracks on the site. By synth I mean, with synth instruments, as opposed to samples, or a live performance. I'm hoping I can find a vgm remix that sounds similar to "God Is An Astronaut" Here is one of thier songs: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwuazUXiE1o&feature=related Quote
ectogemia Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 Theophany's "Avien" is a recently posted one that is VERY good. It isn't at all like God Is An Astronaut. It's much more somber and abstract. And dude... doesn't God Is An Astronaut have a lot of instruments besides synths going on? Quote

I wouldn't call them entirely ambient either, but i'm looking for actual ambient, and stuff like them. Quote
ectogemia Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 Ah, well, they really aren't all that ambient in my opinion. They're definitely chill-out ish, though. Ambient? Try Treasure (AKA David Helpling & John Jenkins). Each of those guys also has solo work that's pretty badass. That's my go-to ambient project. Actually, now that I think about it, you should check out Hammock if you're looking for something like God Is An Astronaut. Hammock is ambient + some guitars & the occasional washed out, unintelligible vocals. Beautiful stuff. Quote
OutSpoken Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 If you want atmosphere, I would recommend anything by Children of the Monkey Machine. Quote
Guest Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 Oh yeah, I forgot about his Secret of Mana remix. Go get that. Now. Quote

Guest Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 I almost went that route myself, but I think I've been really pushing the self-promotion thing too hard lately... Quote
Liontamer ⚖️ Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 This fits the bill on some level: http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR00468/ Quote
