Haunting, atmospheric, sometimes-slightly trippy VGM?

Hey all,

I joined Gamingforce not more than a few days ago, and I'm wading cautiously, for the first time, into the ocean that's VGM.

Thankfully, this isn't going to be one of those "I'm not going to provide any of my musical interests, somehow give me music that I'd like" threads (assuming those exist). These are the VGM soundtracks that I've listened to, and liked enough to keep on my computer, not in any particular order of preference:
  • Halo: ODST
  • Machinarium
  • Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory (Amon Tobin)
  • SimCity 4
  • Robotech: Invasion (Jesper Kyd)
  • Wipeout: Pure

Any other suggestions for a complete VGM newbie who only knows what he likes, and not much else of the details of the "genre"?

When I'm dealing with non-VGM music, I'd normally plug a few favorite songs into Pandora and see what it spat out at me, but I don't have that ability with VGM.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Thanks for the suggestions so far, guys. I'm resolving some hard drive space issues i but I'll take a look as soon as I can.

In other news, I just listened to the Red Dead Redemption soundtrack in FLAC. Holy shit, when Jose Gonzalez's "So Far Away" came on...chills up and down my spine.

Perfect lonely blues for 3 in the morning with nothing but your computer screen for company.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
