Ulrich Schnauss fits that bill imo, get your hands on A Strangely Isolated Place, unreal album.
Aye, I'll try out the album.
Old and just one track (rest of the album is great, but less ambient) but the first thing I thought of when I read your post:
This from the same lot:
The one song did sound amazing, but I'm looking for albums.
But thanks guys. Appreciate it!
Anyways, winter's comming and what's better than some ambient when walking outside in the cold?
First recommendation is Pysage d'Hiver (french and translates to Landscape of Winter). An ambient black metal band with a couple of pure ambient releases. While not being massive, the band is perfect for winter.
The second is Trist, another black metal band that released an ambient album, and what a monster of an album that is. One 36 minute long song. Lovely!
This we've got Forest Silence. Started out as an ambient band, and added black metal later. Amazing stuff!
Perfect winter music IMO.
And fi you'e into black metal then I'll recommend their black metal releases as well. Especially Paysage d'Hiver and Trist. Lo-fi as f***, but that's the way I like it.
