Steve Reich appreciation.

I suppose I have had a bit of an emotional rollercoaster through the last year. This last week has been particularly challenging.

So I turn to beautiful music for expansion and awe and cleansing.

The minimalism genre is good for me I think.

I'm sure there are many other Steve Reich fans here. Hello and best wishes for the new year.

Is it possible to have an ambient instrumental track that's also a Christmas song? And it doesn't have any sleigh bells in it?! Well, here's my attempt at one...

I’ve made this StudyList for the last decade, when I started to read for my thesis. It has 1000+ hours of relaxing ambient music. I would like suggestions to similar music if you have your own ambient playlist or some artists you would like to recommend:) Feel free to follow the playlist if you like

Terry Riley Essential Ten Tracks

Hi! I recently challenged myself to come up with a top ten essential track list of Terry Riley songs. I already had a lengthy best of playlist but figured I’d try out narrowing down the best to an “essential ten”. This list is both meant to capture the variety of sounds from his discography and also meant to ensure some of my favorite tracks are represented.

Here’s the “essential ten” playlist!

Which would you include on your own “essential ten” list?
