A couple of things that relate to being out in the mountains:
[url= http://www.archive.org/details/apl036 ]Emil Klotzsch - Tiefe Berge[/url] a German sound designer for film who travelled through the Highlands making field recordings which he then processed in the studio to make this wonderful ambient album. Download it for free from that link. I've not looked him up for while but just seen that since that album was produced he's produced something similar from a forest in Germany.
The master of field recording is Chris Watson. He records sound for nature documentaries but also produces of field recordings which are structured into albums. [url= http://boomkat.com/cds/124981-chris-watson-cima-verde ]Cima Verde[/url] is made from sounds around a mountain, a progression from 3000m to the valley floor. Okay, it's stretching the definition of music beyond it's elasticity for many people. It's more audio art.
Do I win the award for champion of the obscure?

Seen the brilliant Wig a Wag at the Festival Interceltique de Lorient a couple of times now, great live band, especially helped by gorgeous girls walking around handing out free shots of Paddy's whiskey 😀
i think they are fairly unknown, i like Sucioperro.
I luv DCFC. Kath is one of my favourite songs of all time. There's some bizarro chord shapes in that song!!
I'll suggest Grouper for lushed out hypnotic loveliness. Also Warpaint are doing it for me at the minute
Quasimoto is a great shout.
Similarly MF DOOM, aka Madvillain, aka DangerDoom, aka King Geedorah, aka Viktor Vaughn. Great artist.
Curved Air.
I think this is what's known as Prog Rock. Whatever it's called,it's good stuff.
If you like primal, hard as nails sounding rock, these guys cannot be beaten
