Two examples that come to me immediately are Enya and Smashing Pumpkins. If music starts feeling stale, I can put on Enya and music feels new again. It's such a pleasant departure from the standard pop/rock/RnB etc sounds that dominate (even if I like those artists).

Anybody have their own equivalents?

Yeah I can see that with Mogwai, I play guitar myself and am hearing it. I do always love to put them out and space out but I could get that with someone like ten east as well.

Godspeed is so damn great, glad I could rejuvenate them for you :).

Yeah beach house has some interesting stuff. Their first albums were real lofi and really based off hip hop beats with dream pop stuff going on. Always dug them for just getting stoned out and meandering through thoughts.

Have you fucked with bitches brew and that fusion jazz before it got too generic sounding? I’ve honestly listened to that stuff and it’s so mesmerizing and hard to even process some of it, I love how out there Miles was getting in the 70s

BB as in Miles Davis? No. I like modern Jazz that departs from the old-time stuff so I avoid names like that. Maybe I shouldn't though. I'm not sure if I've heard fusion jazz because I'm not so good with genres, but as I mentioned in another comment I enjoyed Glasper, Dave, Hodge, Bey: Live at North Sea Jazz Festival 2019 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5QVcYeT74I&list=RDs5QVcYeT74I&start_radio=1
