This track is just dripping with atmosphere. Ethiopian Jazz is a world unto itself.

I love how simultaneously subdued/atmospheric and intensely active this performance is:

Miles, Eric Dolphy, Coltrane, Ornette and all the other heavy hitters... so great.
I have a fondness for a lot of music from the ECM label. Some of their releases veer a little close to new-age cheese, but when the balance was right between austere beauty and earthy rhythm they were so good.
My favorite is the Gateway Trio featuring Jack DeJohnette on drums+piano, Dave Holland on bass and the late great John Abercrombie on guitar, whose use of delay and other effects seems almost proto-ambient or post-punk or something?

Art Ensemble of Chicago - Berlin 1976 Ah, that was great! And that Gateway 2, and the others! I like jazz but am very unfamiliar with it.

A few unsorted tracks :
That Sun Ra track somehow reminds me of Angelo Badalamenti.
I have been loving Glenn Miller since I was a teen and used to use it as an inspirational background for writing pseudo-Kingesque horror short stories, or play Call of Cthulhu TTRPG with friends.
Last but not least, that incredible Coleman album

I greatly like ECM and the ECM style as well. I happen to have an inordinate fondness for new age cheese so even those releases have something for me. The label frequently featured one of my favorite jazz musicians, Palle Mikkelborg frequently.
Here's a non-ECM release in the same vein, also feature Mikkelborg:
It's music that instantly puts me in a calm and contemplative mood, maybe a little wistful. As you say it is very forward-looking music in its use of effects and synthesizers. The first Rypdal and Entrance here are from '77.
