[70MB - 160kbps - 59:05] For our first podcast, we decided to veer immediately left of center (even for us) and present some of our favorite tracks from the astral plane. To answer the obvious question: Yes, we do actually like this stuff! "New Age" as a label has come to represent mostly generic "healing" music and "Pure Moods"-style compilations, but the best New Age stuff from back in the day deserves to be listened to as much as any other electronic music. You say Eno, we say Kitaro. Or better yet, just sit back and listen, and let the music critic in your head have a bubble bath for once. As you'll see, the lines between cool and uncool get very blurry when music is this pretty. |
