  1. Sparks - I Predict

    The English Beat - Mirror In The Bathroom

    Falco - Rock Me Amadeus

    New Order - *Pretty Much anything from these guys* Bizarre Love Triangle, Blue Monday, Confusion, World In Motion


  2. New age and new wave are two very different genres.

    New Age is a soothing, nature-based, calming and spiritual sort of music.

    New Wave can be energetic, dance music with a frenetic beat and quirky lyrics.

    I cannot give you an example of New Age, as I do not like it, but I am a  huge New Wave fan, and  a few great songs are:

    "Whip It" by DEVO

    "11:59" by BLONDIE

    "Telecommunication" by FLOCK OF SEAGULLS


  3. Try a band called monte cristo, album called voyage, theres a track on it called IOA which is my favourite, but the album is designed to use sounds which nurture all living things, and it is an electonicy dance track.

    Ambient 2 Plateaux of Mirror is a softer album by Harold Budd and Brian Eno, instrumental, I like a lot of tracks on it especially arc of doves which is really nurturing.

    Some New Age stuff can be really powerful, Vangelis has been round longer than New Age, but Soil Festivities is not to be missed. He also did the music for BladeRunner.

    And Constance Denby has done a few albums, they r really powerful.

    I also recommend an album called Calendula by John Beaulieu, I don't recommend his other stuff though. You have to buy it though his website. He designed these tuning forks based not on the usual musical notes but the natural ones found in nature called pythagorean tuning forks. Playing different combinations of the forks have different healing effects, but it's a nice album to chill to. A sonic massage he calls it. -

    He's also done tuning forks that make the sound of the planets - I've got some!
