DJ Shadow’s Endtroducing for me. One of the few multi format albums I own that I’ve had to replace several times cos I’ve worn it out. Freaks me out that it’s nearly 30 years old, it blew my mind then and it still does now. A masterpiece of a sonic journey.

I drove 400 miles to see him DJ. Got realy high then kinda drive home 400 miles. The good old days of 1996.

1. Air - Moon Safari

2. Spiritualized - Ladies and gentlemen we are floating in space

Echo's Pink Floyd.

I second both of these choices. I came here to say the 2nd as clearly the thread title leads anyone who knows the album to think of it. Saw them play it live about 20 years ago, and they were superb.

I third them both amazing albums, I will add any ozric tentacles early albums, cinematic orchestra ,

At one point Spiritualized were my most seen band. Overtaken by Morcheeba by the end of the 90s (i used to go on tour with them tho). Smoke Fairies are up there now too.

Moon Safari is one of my favourite summers day albums

On vinyl soo good 👍

If I was going to give a single suggestion it would be:

Aphex Twin - Selected Ambient Works '85-'92

Don't get Volume 2 if you like it and then expect anything like the same thing.

Spiritualized or anything by grouper

Tame Impala - Lonerism
Mogwai - Rave Tapes (almost anything by mogwai tbh)
Nick Drake - Pink Moon

Nightmares on wax, smokers delight. Boom!

Great shout

Gong flying teapot !

The whole Radio Gnome trilogy!

Here’s a few more albums that might fit your bill…..

The Verve - Storm in heaven
Move D - Solitaire
Mos Def/Talib Kweli - Black star
Lemon Jelly - lost horizons
XTC - Skylarking
Antonio Carlos Jobim - Tide/Wave
John Haycock - Dorian Portrait

Forgot the verve ! Early verve definately floaty

Weirdly was watching the Acid House the other night and it played out with On Your Own...what a tune...love that band

Elder - Reflections of a Floating World
Can - Future Days
John Martyn - Inside Out
KLF - Chill Out

Those are some epic tunes there bud! Lovin it

Miles Davis - In a silent way.
Big Bud - Late night blues

The Ozric Tentacles are the perfect example of spacey and floaty!

If you haven't already, check out both Noduns Ictus albums. Ozrics but with a focus on their floaty spacey sounds

Omfg the Ozrics! Lying in the dark on the floor two massive kef speakers , head in the sweetspot after buckets and hot knives

The original Dreamfish album was amazing back in the day. I remember getting a cassette tape copy from a guy at school and listening to it on headphones after a spliff which blew my mind. Got the CD off eBay years later and it's still good for an ambient chillout option.

I’ve got the vinyl of that! Quality Fax output. That label did loads of amazing CDs and they were all limited to between 200-500 copies only….

Sweet, I'll need to check my copy then. I might have bagged a rarity if it's the same label! 😂

I had quite a few but sold on sone years back highest I got was £300 for the second I.F. CD!

I prefer to lose myself in a movie or a game while high but this question feels like it was meant to be answered with ELO - Time.

Anything by LTJ Bukem

Anything by 4hero

Bit more mainstream but also love to chill to a bit of Zero 7😎 The live version of 'Destiny' (linked above) is just beautiful.

Cheers BB 😊👍🍻

Radiohead - Kid A

I often fall asleep listen to a playlist on Spotify called "Floating through space" but it is literally ambient drone 😂

Not an album but In Love Again by Red Rack'em is a great flip of y by Outkast; super deep house, floaty as you say.

Check out Haiku Salut - There is no elsewhere

Completely instrumental, so good to listen to while working, but also real nice to have on whilst having a smoke

Flow State by Tash Sultana
It's just her and a loop pedal, great album for a spaced out smoke
