I highly recommend Posford's "The Herb Garden" from Mystery of the Yeti Part 2 (released as a Hallucinogen track before he seemingly switched to doing all of his chiller music with Raja) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Nce44osPpE

Celtic Cross, Ott, and Entheogenic are phenomenal as well.

I'd recommend Third Ear Audio, Carbon Based Lifeforms, Kuba (specifically the album Through a Lens), Phutureprimitive, Saafi Brothers

If you're ever looking to put on a few hours of something and want an epic thematic journey spanning 2 albums, try "When the silence is..." by Koan - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBksiW_3dCY

edit: I'm not sure what genre this fits under, but the album "Deliverance" by Culprate reminds me a lot of Shpongle in ways that it has no right to, since... I'm pretty sure it's not psychill/psytrance

Ah man, his early stuff still holds up; but when he started to get into 140 (Dubstep) I just couldn't get into it; I had been in that sound since 2006 and while I appreciate him expanding as an artist, it was just off-putting.

Mark Pritchard on the other hand (1/2 of Global Communication) had a much better go of it and even got a release(s) on Deep Medi for example.

Thanks for the link to Mystery of the Yeti, I hadn't heard that- and it sounds almost exactly like Shpongle (I think even some of the samples are the same).
