ambient music recommendations?

[Tunnelvision]

can anyone recommend me some tunes? I'm looking for tunes that are in the same style of the following two video's from aphex twin

Aphex Twin - Flim

and

Aphex Twin - Iz us

Please let me know if you some tunes like this. I can find a lot of ambient music...thats not the problem, but i can never find any music that comes close to these 2 tunes

well, did you even see the related videos on the right? just there you can see several other songs from james that i'm sure you'll like...

like pancake lizard

also, i don't know what you mean by ambient because to me ambient does not have beats... to me this is downtempo... pure ambient to me is SAW2.

Lots of free ambient here.

Not sure if this will help but you can download a free Ambient podcast by Magnatune from iTunes weekly. The podcast is a compilation of various artists and there have been some outstanding episodes.
