For more modern ambient you probably want to start with glitch

Jackson Ramirez
Yeah but most modern ambient has it's roots in glitch, ambient/minimal techno and noise. I'd say this is just as applicable

Ian Russell
>most modern ambient
not really no but I see where you're coming from
Daniel Gutierrez
Yeah babe. Don't tell me the main influence is new age and krautrock
David Evans
steve moore
Hunter Stewart
Fuck off retard.
Ayden Evans
Nice argument
David Turner
no, 'babe' it just happens that it isn't 'most modern ambient' that is abstract and glitchy
it's just that you're a /daily/ drone and only care about stuff like that
bet you act like you're allergic to modular sequencers and arpeggios and bass because you think groovy ambient is for plebs
you can like "minimal" stuff as much as you want, but don't pretend you actually know lots of modern artists just because you follow a couple of /daily/ approved bandcamps
Thomas Gomez
I've never even been on /daily/
Levi Carter
well nvm then
Jeremiah Martinez
>glitch is ambient
>ambient substantially influenced by glitch
>ikeda and noto representative of "most modern ambient
>most of their output isn't even ambient
I don't know how you got these stupid ideas but they're false. Glitch has basically nothing to do with ambient and isn't influential at all.
Jeremiah White
will there ever be a day when we can have an ambient thread on mu without these faggots start the retarded discussion on what is and isn't ambient?
don;t think so
William White
He's not just recommending ambient that I don't like or something. He's recommending music that no one other than him considers ambient music because he got confused somehow. If I went into a hip hop thread and recommended everyone listen to Spirogyra because folk prog is the main nexus of "modern hip hop", people would be correct to say I was wrong.
