Listen to it with some good bass-resonant headphones, sit back, and enjoy! The best Vis's to watch with, imho, are the R4 and the Geiss 4.23.

If anybody else has any other stations to list, or any positive comments, then feel free to add!

Wow. This is the first time I have heard something like this. Sounds nice. Going to take a break from pop music and listen to these.

SomaFM Drone Zone is a bit scary. :O It's like walking in a dark temple.

It's very good music to listen to while playing fantasy rpgs (aside from Radeo Rivendell ). Also, try listening to it while playing other games like other MMOs (especially Soma Space Staion w/ Starcraft )

Yeah, the premise of "ambient" music is a darn good idea if you ask me

Can't check those out right now, don't have Winamp currently. However, i stumbled upon this site somehow and its some pretty good music. The whole cd is seamless, but there are tracks to it. You can listen to full cds and download them and everything. Theres a lot of music there. Check it out.

I've always liked ambient music, but never really knew it was that big, or really anything other than a few "songs" I had heard.

Thanks!
