I went down a Traumprinz worm hole recently after listening to (realising I couldn’t buy because it’s so damn expensive) his DJ Healer album Nothing 2 Loose. It’s a really beautiful album, more ambient than house. I was thinking he had maybe influenced a lot of the big famous producers now like Fred Again because of the emotional ambient side. And maybe it had been influenced by tracks like Xtal by Aphex. What tracks do you like in this vein? Anyone like Traumprinz in here? ---

I’ve been playing a lot of ambient music lately some of which might fall into that category. There’s a couple of Ambient Dub Techno selections on my Mixcloud page. ---

I still listen to Richard H Kirk‘s Virtual State from time to time which fits the ambient techno bill [![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/djhistory/original/2X/e/ee709d4af89819120242625de9a0c73c72c63cc4.jpeg "Richard H.

One of my faves from Virgin’s ‘Brief History of Ambient’ series of comps, The Orb’s remix of The Grid. Those volumes turned my teenage brain on to so many things: Eno, Tangerine Dream, Fripp, Gong, Prince Far I (and dub in general).
