Do you mean _A Journey Into Ambient Groove_? What a fantastic series.
There are at least three that I know of. The first 'phase' was released this
time last year by Planet Earth. I'm not sure if the selected tracks had anything
to do with the Pork label. The tracks off of the first Ambient Groove are what
I think of when the phrase 'ambient dub' is mentioned to me. Very dark,
dubby, sometimes minimalistic stuff. But most of it is very "organic" sounding.
This recording is a favorite of mine.
The next two in the series were released by Jason Bentley's Quango
label. I've yet to purhcase phase three, but number 2 is also an impressive
work. There's less of a dub influence and more of a jazz influence to this
album. Highlights for me include the two Fila Brazilla tracks and stunning
piece from Heights of Abraham.
There's also a keen sampler, _A Taste of Pork_, released along the same
time Phase Two was. I think it's a good taste of where the Quango label is
heading with their music.
