Recommend me a band like Air (the French band) or Enigma
 
Title says it all. I'm looking for more atmospheric stuff, and these are two of my favorites.

Zero 7 (one of my favorite groups - I think Simple Things is one of the best albums of the past decade. They've been called "The British Air")
Tosca (very atmospheric... their new one, Dehli 9, is quite good.)
Balligomingo (very ethereal... when I saw Enigma I immediately thought of them)

Also there's (to a lesser extent) Waldeck, Mandalay, Royksopp, Kid Loco, Lamb, Laika, Moloko, and Mono.

That Zero 7 album is exactly like "Moon Safari." I mean exactly.

I wouldn't say exactly.

Simple Things is better. :)

Try E.S. Posthumus. You can only get the cd from cdstreet.com, I believe. They're like Enigma, but way better to me. Their music is also the songs you've heard in trailers like Unfaithful, Spiderman, Planet of the Apes, XXX, and Minority Report. One of my favorite cds.

I always enjoyed early Bel Canto and Dead Can Dance is phenomenal (though with a less modern slant).
