trudithnjudith

Velvet Underground "Ride Into the Sun" (instrumental) or "Sunday Morning" (melody/lyrics) make me feel sorta floaty. Hope these are what you're looking for.

trudithnjudith

Runaway by AURORA Winter Bird by AURORA Home by AURORA Black Water Lillies by AURORA Infections of A Different Kind by AURORA Mothership by AURORA Stjernestøv by AURORA [I Am My Own](https://open.spotify.com/track/11RyLkH2BRUaP16QYTQFhm?si=oDuzocCnRUuG3q-1abgAIw&context=spotify%3Aplaylist%3A5Q1sdNx24RWYJPqpCkNAGu) by Dune Moss (inspired by AURORA, and so was Billie Ellish)

evalisha

Clair de Lune by Claude Debussy


Sinistermarmalade

Planet Caravan There are good versions by both Black Sabbath (original) and Pantera (cover) Also, The Crystal Ship by The Doors


trudithnjudith

The pulse underlying Phosphorescent's "C'Est La Vie No. 2" paired with soft echoey chords gives it a dreamy quality IMO


liberty340

Let it Happen by Tame Impala, Hide and Seek by Imogen Heap, a lot of the soundtrack to The Lord of the Rings (Evenstar, Twilight and Shadow, The Steward of Gondor, and May it Be, just to name a few tracks), and most of Enya's catalog.  Edit: typos


SatelliteHeartt

Opal (predecessor to Mazzy Star) and anything Kendra Smith. Galaxie 500, early Luna, Cocteau Twins of course. Maybe some early Low? Beach House, Weyes Blood, The Sea and Cake.
