oops, I forgot, grab the whole EMIT series. pretty essential stuff if you like the sound
-Joe rav, SAW 1 and 2 are very different in the sense that 2 is more ambient. SAW 2 is one of the best albums I've ever heard however, its just ambient that cant be beat within its own vein. as for other ambient-ish stuff, check out some of the mid-late 90s stuff on instinct such as abe duque, human mesh dance (aka taylor deupreee of p-909 and founder of 12k, line, and happy) facil, woob, omicron, seti, etc. if you want to go deeper and more sparse, check out the stuff on staubgold, ritornell, and 12/line to some extent (sogar does some great textures that aren't TOO uber minimal.) I hope this helps! Also check out Robert Rich & B. Lustmord - Stalker Thomas Koner - Permafrost Autechre - Amber ...
