New Age Music

One Hour With New Age Music Magazine 3 is a 1993 new age compilation disc of one hour of new age music made for a magazine released in the Netherlands titled New Age Music. Jan Ten Hoopen put this together for harmony and nature. Oreade Music is the Dutch label known for nothing but soothing bangers.

Japanese Ambient & New Age Music - 80's Synth, Relaxing Music is a compilation album. Released in 2020 on Winter Hill Records.

Though most new age music has rightfully been associated with the cynical postmodern business of sonic backdrop music of the 1980s, '90s, and early 21st century – it was originally an outgrowth of the spiritual adventurousness of the 20th, particularly during the late '60s and '70s. Light in the Attic presents the first overview of the genre from the private-press side; in other words, its most authentic expression, since the vast majority of the records surveyed here were released by artists who had no regard for economic remuneration.

Light In The Attic’s Japan Archival Series continues with Kankyō Ongaku: Japanese Ambient, Environmental & New Age Music 1980-1990, an unprecedented overview of the country’s vital minimal, ambient, avant-garde, and New Age music – what can collectively be described as kankyō ongaku, or environmental music. The collection features internationally acclaimed artists such as Haruomi Hosono, Ryuichi Sakamoto and Joe Hisaishi, as well as other pioneers like Hiroshi Yoshimura, Yoshio Ojima and Satoshi Ashikawa, who deserve a place alongside the indisputable giants of these genres.
