I need some "ethereal" music recommendations

So I've been listening to a few of the SMT soundtracks lately, and stumbled upon this classic piece, which I hadn't heard in ages...


Any similar songs like it? Bonus points if we're talking about other videogame OST's as well, though not necessarily.
A few come to my mind:

-Break Silence (Ristar)
-Redshift Corridor/Empyreal Bridge (Etrian Odyssey V)
-Staff Roll (Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne)
-Deja Vu (Majin Tensei 2, remixed in SMT if)
-Police Station (PSX Persona 1)
-Da'at: Tennozu (Shin Megami Tensei V)
-Devil Forest (Megami Tensei Gaiden: Last Bible III)
-Akrillic (Plok)
-Stickerbrush Symphony (Donkey Kong Country 2)
-Dragonspiral Tower/Celestial Tower/Giant Chasm (Pokemon Black & White)
-Forest Temple (The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time)
-Iraiza (Baroque)
-Thrashard in the Cave~ Arrange (Castlevania Chronicles)
-Premonition (Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow)
-1000 Clouds (Karous)
-really anything from the Elebits ost, mostly The Silent Kitchen, Puzzle Panic, Shopping in Style, Me and My Little War, etc
-Under The Ocean (Super Monkey Ball 2)
-The Big Wave: Inside the Whale (Nekketsu Oyako)
-Neo Avatar (Va11-Hall-A)
-wasteland (Terraria Calamity)
-anything from the Ace Combat 3 ost, take your pick!
-Armored Green (Ketsui)
-Crystal Teardrops (Castlevania: Symphony of the Night)
-Maze of Death (Mega Man 9)
-Deep in Space (Mega Man 10)
-Theme of Hash (Gravity Circuit)
-The Perishing Operetta (royalty free music by M-Art associated with Rosenkreuzstilette)
-Meteor Strike (royalty free music by Suketoudara's Hideout associated with Rosenkreuzstilette)
-Dear You~ Destructive (Higurashi)

I better cut it here before I think of more

My favorite band of all time:
This album doesn't get out of my head since i heard it:
For the bonus points:
NICE, Boards of Canada, that was long ago... I was thinking of that too, but I wanted the epic game bonus points
Also great pick with Ico.
 
This beattape here has such a unique and strange vibe. Helped by the fact that I cannot find any information about the artist or its background anywhere! Hell, this tape isn't even on YT!

Have you heard of Ichiko Aoba? A lot of her older albums are just her and her guitar, whereas her newer stuff is very atmospheric

love this, thanks for the rec :D
 
When you say "ethereal" it makes me think "dream pop" like this song.
 
one that i'm surprised i haven't seen mentioned, Selected Ambient Works Vol II, or just anything in Aphex Twin's discography
and one of my personal favourite songs of all time
