I suppose if i think about it, I am a little vague as to what the definition of dark ambient is (as I am with most genre definitions). I think of it as being drone-based music that creates an unsettled feeling. More specifically i think of it as being music that sounds like a cold wet cave with water dripping from the ceiling and an unidentifiable animal sound somewhere deep inside, the producer of which you're pretty sure is going to come and eat you while you sleep.
