This is less ambient music but space music, indeed. Very driving yet sober and clean like a deep space/sea trip. The filter work is fantastic and comes to real life on a good speaker system (I own a pair of Tannoy 638 guided by a straight-ahead NAD amp). I have no idea whether the guys used analogue machines but this sounds fresh as a new production and is so comfortably wise in a synchronous way. Very good album.

Limited to 5000. This is one of my favourite ambient albums of all time, I love the fact that they've taken sounds from their natural surroundings to make a lot of the tracks. An incredible album.
