I feel the same about re inventing a name for this music. I don't know who will decide but nobody seems to care! How do you get major labels to start the trend??? Music biz is going through major changes not to say crisis and now revolves a lot around each individual musicians and indie groups. Sometimes I think it's a false concern, that Mozart did not care about how his music was labeled, he did it, day in day out... The sole importance nowadays is for search engines. If you want to be found on the web as a music artist, you have to work with keywords and that's where you need to use those. Otherwise, honestly, when I sing, I don't question what genre it fits in! Tks for sharing! Have a good new day, Marcomé Tks Joel, I totally relate to your experience of music genre. I feel the same about re inventing a name for this music.

Brilliant music without words. I truly think that "New Age" was a good term to use in the late '70s through 2000. I believe it's time to re-evaluate the term to perhaps, what you spoke of..."New World", "New Generation", or something that will grab hold of another generation of writers, performers, and listeners. I can also remember the connotations that were held with the term "New Age" by those that could not comprehend the way the music could be uplifting without treading into the spiritual. Or maybe...that is the thing. I, like many, WERE moved to a higher level of thinking and feeling with the music. Music like Mason Williams "Classical Gas" retooled by artist Vanessa Mae, John Teshs early works, "Adiemus" fist breakout hit, conductors/composers like Murray Gold and Ben Foster, or works of Mannhiem Steamroller and David Arkenstone. Maybe "Higher Level" could be used in place of "New Age" to disscribe this music that brings together people to think, react, and enjoy the music at a "High Level".

Brian Eno had some instructions like those with the FripperTronics if I well recall. Even an explanation of how to hook up your speakers! Tks for sharing! Happy new year sweet Musical Soul!

Also appreciate 16 track analog tape to HDCD remastering with quirky album notes: "This stereo record cannot be played on old tin boxes no matter what they are fitted with. If you are in possession of such equipment please hand it into the nearest police station." Love the story of Tubular Bells originally being rejected by labels as “unmarketable”.
