All albums by Amethystium (the best in my opinion), Mythos, Deep Forest, Cusco, Mike Oldfield, some albums by Vangelis such as "Direct" and "Voices" etc., Delirium (also i used to like them less), Adiemus (for a more symphonic/choral less synth-driven account), Era (for a more medieval account!)

The closest I get these days is the Ultimae ambient/psy chill stuff that leans in that direction. Full-on new age is pretty sickening stuff.

Vangelis-Spiral is better.

I'd hardly call vangelis new age though.

Here's a nice new age trance sortof track

i writed a song.

the ultimate karaoke song is...


Enigma - Return to Innocence

I was visiting my Aunt and Uncle's and one of her New Age cd's had Saltwater on it. I lol-ed.

Enigma and Deep Forest is the closest I'll venture, on occasion. If you count Vangelis then him too.

I'll always put forth that Enya's first album -The Celts- is vastly underrated, though that's almost 4AD darkwave in tone than New Age.

4AD FTW! Legendary dark ethereal stuff Dead Can Dance, Cocteau Twins, This Mortal Coil, Clan Of Xymox etc. etc. I still listen to this stuff from time to time. More awesome (experimental and arty) than the majority of new age IMO.



And yes Vangelis is not New Age though some of his end-of-80s/90s albums like the ones i mentioned sound very new-agey. Listen to "Direct" and you will find a lot of similarities with Enigma's first albums and "Voices" coming out after the "Columbus" soundtrack is like a sweet spiritual version of that soundtrack. Vangelis was generally an electronic pioneer and some of his 70s and 80s works (like "Spiral" as one mentioned) were probably groundbreaking.
