Jean Michel Jarre is pretty cool older stuff.

I appreciate all the recomendations everybody. I'll definately be doing my homework. I haven't heard the new Eno and Byrne yet. I was feeling My Life in the Bush of Ghosts so I'm sure I'll make my way around to the new one sooner or later.

This isn't helpful to you at all, but I saw The Orb live when I was really high on shrooms. The lights for that performance was amazing.

That's cool. It'll probably never happen to me so I'll have to live vicariously through your experience.

µ-Ziq, Boy Robot, Autechre and Square Pusher have excellent tunes the IDM Scene is rich in Ambient works.

Did that once for a Laurie Anderson concert film. It was awesome.
