Robonaut 1 Report post Posted April 14, 2021 I've been in the mood lately for psybient which features lots of samples involving aliens, U.F.O.s, etc. Here are some examples: Cosmosis - "Roswell" Eat Static - "Abnormal Interference" Whole albums around this theme would be great, but I will accept track recommendations, too!

yiannis 201 Report post Posted April 15, 2021 Since you mentioned it, a very large chunk of Eat Static's work. But you probably already know that. 🙄 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But then they went into that drum 'n' bass period with Science of the Gods and I completely lost interest in them. Are any of their later albums good?

Depends what you're looking for. 2008's Back to Earth and their latest, 2017's Last Ship to Paradise, are downtempo and amazing imo. 2000's Crash & Burn! and 2001's In the Nude! are pretty eclectic, with all kinds of weird stuff, some loungy and accessible elements there, with ES's touch of course. 2007's De-Classified is a return to their techno roots with one of my favourite tracks of theirs, Tractor Beam, which is drum'n'bassy btw. Finally, 2016's double Dead Planet is split in half, uptempo and downtempo, and is simultaneously a kind of recap and an experiment. The downtempo side is very weird. YouTube is your friend. It's worth mentioning that SotG was the hardest album to get into for me too, and is still my least favourite. 1 Robonaut reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Salamantis 10 Report post Posted April 19, 2021 They are oldies, but I recc Pink Elln - Electronic Dreamplant, Spacetime Continuum - Sea Biscuit, and Bill Laswell - City Of Light (this last a collab with Tetsu Inoue and two members of Coil). All of them date to the 90's Golden Age of Ambient Electronica era. You might also like a later album: Mystical Sun - Volcanoes And U.F.O.'s 1 yiannis reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yiannis 201 Report post Posted April 20, 2021 Thanks for the heads up for the Mystical Sun album Salamantis, it's been a while since I heard from him. Sea Biscuit is a very good album too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Salamantis 10 Report post Posted April 26, 2021 I heartily recommend checking the Bandcamp pages of both Mystical Sun and Don Peyote. They have both continued to release music that's at a very high level. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yiannis 201 Report post Posted April 26, 2021 Yeah DP's Blue is great! I wasn't the biggest fan of MS's drone stuff, but I do enjoy his more uptempo albums. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Progressive Anarchists 1 Report post Posted December 15, 2021 My favourite source for the samples you look for are the sample CDs "Bizarre Planet" and "Science Fiction" which were available from Best Service more than 25 years ago. They're not available anymore but you find them sometimes at eBay for an affordable price. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
