...is an awesome Swedish ambient duo. Very Boards of Canada-esque, I like it.

Any fans here?

I enjoy them, but I've been on a Bluetech/Solar Fields kick lately. Oh and Androcell, Easily Embarrassed, Entheogenic, and Ott. CBL is pretty cool, too.

I am not so much into electronic music but CBL are great that their electronic music has sound of nature.

Could you recommend some similar bands? I don't know so much about ambient, I just started to enjoy CBL and I think I should check more bands.

Try Stars Of The Lid although they are VERY minimalistic. Also try Mordant Music.

They're probably my favourite ambient band, and I've only just got back into them. Below is my favourite song. It's cathartic to listen to, like you're being lifted up to space and everything is forgotten.
