So what couldn't you find?
Looks like these Global Patterns / Fireflower Foundation releases may not be on Spotify:
- From Tokyo to Honolulu: 自然の音楽 / 生まれ変わり- ll nøthing ll: Artificial Nature- 六月花 (June Flower): 緑の丘 (Green Hills), 赤い夏 (Red Summer)- 地球 (Earth): ジャングル (Jungle)
But besides them any others?

Not sure offhand, might have to go back and look.

Well, not surprisingly, none of the Aficionado releases are available on streaming, as they seem/seemed to be physical media only. No Bandcamp downloads either. A damn shame for those of us who've moved away from physical formats.

(since any or all of their EPs would fit the bill perfectly)

yeah re aficionado gotta try to get this eleventeen eston cut on there:

That cut is actually included on Music For Dreams' Sunset Sessions 3, which does appear on Spotify

bit of a cheat, but Mark Barrott compiled this sunset playlist that I find myself playing when i'm in this zone:
https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7M1Puo8vKPJoiSHYgTXcNa?si=ydeRUTlAQRSLB4eyOSBN5w
and a playlist I made for this same purpose a couple years back called, appropriately enough, Summer Nights. It features a lot of the same songs (Lissvik/Air France) that are already in the playlist, but it's a tidy little listen.

By the way, my original list had a pretty heavy lean into the experimental ambient/new age side. The recommendations totally delivered in regards to the thread theme, but wondering if any of you had thoughts on that category as well.
From what I had already, these are really nice if you have any interest (the rest of the applicable inclusions I haven't spent enough time with; still diving in):
- Aokigahara Online: Mori- Deepchord: Immersions, Lanterns- Heavenly Music Corporation: In a Garden of Eden, Lunar Phase- Iguana Moonlight: Wild Palms- Les Halles: Zephyr- M. Geddes Gengras: Hawaiki Tapes- Magnétophonique: Une Cartographie Idéale- UNKNOWN ME: Subtropics- Wave Temples: Isle Enchanted- 六月花 (June Flower): 緑の丘 (Green Hills), 赤い夏 (Red Summer)- 地球 (Earth): ジャングル (Jungle)
― Evan, Wednesday, 12 February 2020 15:57 (four years ago) link
That 80s Japanese ambient/new age comp that placed in the year end rollout has some lovely stuff on it
― groovypanda, Wednesday, 12 February 2020 17:56 (four years ago) link
Been meaning to dive into that one! On it.
Open to more in that ambient-experimental/"naturewave" and/or ambient (+ semi field recording) + tasteful new age if anyone has any more thoughts?
Best in class imo on that front:- Magnétophonique: Une Cartographie Idéale- Iguana Moonlight: Wild Palms- G.E.N.E.: Rain Forest- Wave Temples: Isle Enchanted
And can't sing enough praise for Deepchord's Immersions II, specifically
Also glaring overall omissions on my part... need to add:- Air France: GBG Belongs To Us, Afraid You Told Someone About Us, Hold On To Me Baby

I feel like my mega playlist is going to be a go to while self isolating. Any time anxiety starts to creep in, I reach for those soothing vibes.

I think this is the closest thread to put this cool/strange Italian synth-drama album I just bumped into via this blog post from 2017: http://www.listentothis.info/2017/06/francesco-messina-medio-occidente-1983/
"Slinky, smart instrumental pop with pristine drum programming that hints at balearic as much as Berlin school. Thick with candy-toned new age synth pads, nods to Latin percussion, and rotary melodic motifs suggesting (duh) Italian minimalism, though this is definitely not minimalist. If this hadn’t come out a year before Echoes, I might guess Messina had been listening to Badarou. Tinged with mysticism in ways that are much harder to define than the album cover would suggest, and with a few tracks that remind me of Lena Platonos or even Vangelis in that they manage to simultaneously be operatic, melancholic, synthetic, and evocative of patriotism."
