The movie sound track "Gladiator" is terrific. The mysterious voice is Lisa Gerrard. If you love it, there is a nice collection by the group "Dead Can Dance" on the 4AD label. This represents her earlier work and all of it is absolutely wonderful.
While not spooky, Daniel Lanois brews a dark, strange and hypnotic sound into all of his work. The best example is "Acadia," which is his own album.
You can hear his strong influence on Emmylou Harris album, "Wrecking Ball" and on Bob Dylan, "Time Out of Mind."
I also like Phillip Glass "Liquid Days" with the Roches and Linda Rondstant, it is difficult to describe and certainly will not appeal to everyone. Still might be worth checking out.
