Woob is a neglected classic, and easily the best of the em:t series. I wish I had ripped it in higher quality, as like the rest of the em:t recordings, the spacial qualities were (and perhaps are) state of the art.

i love Ambient Otaku, along with most everything Tetsu Inoue does.

Voted Banco de Gaia because I didn't think that anyone else would. And I still have a lot of affection for that stuff. That said, I haven't heard about half this list.

Woob without question.

Was going to be annoyed that Woob wasn't on Spodiy but it does appear to be on bandcamp:

orange - atom heart

still love this.

for me, fax '94 was a golden year for ambient

going to have to probably go for ambient otaku out of this list .. gorgeous album.

is the woob album going to have this chanting all the way through? because i'll stop listening now if so.

no

too late

Has to be Ambiant Otaku, so timeless.

Oh man I have non of these :(

Another cheer for Ambiant Otaku. I'll take this one over SAWII any day.

What? No FFWD (the orb + robert fripp) on the list?

another vote for Woob from me. Woob and his Journeyman stuff all-time classic to me. new Woob stuff also great.

chanting is what's up

I'm just digging me some mystere de voix bulgare so chanting is fine by me, but the first track on that woob gave me a strong sense of ethnic musics cheaply appropriated for purposes of bog standard 90s new-age tosh. Perhaps it's better than that, but the damage has been done.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

Nice to see the votes spread out a bit... So the title of Best Ambient Album of 1994, according to the poll results (three rounds), shall remain a tie between 76:14 and Selected Ambient Works Vol II.
