Ok I'm really getting into ambient/atmospheric stuff.

Can people recomend me stuff similar to

3) Very atmospheric stuff- to the degree where its not really music but more like pulsations (ie Tribes of Neurot- Adaptation and Survival)

4) Anything full of darkness or despair...

I'm not familiar with Tribes of Neurot but the most "Very atmospheric stuff- to the degree where its not really music but more like pulsations" stuff I got recently are
'Stalker' by Robert Rich & B-Lustmord
'The Magnificent Void' by Steve Roach
This is the stuff you'd hear if you began to hallucinate while lost in deep outerspace. Spooky.

If we're going to talk about ambient-ish Icelandic music, I believe Sigur Ros deserves a mention.
