Available for 29 days

New age and ambient music pioneer Laraaji handpicks beautiful ethereal tracks to boost your mindfulness, including Brian Eno and Robert Fripp, Grand River, Scanner and Nala Sinephro. Born Edward Larry Gordon in Philadelphia in 1943, Laraaji primarily grew up in Perth Amboy, New Jersey, where music was a constant presence. He studied composition and piano on scholarship at Howard University where he collaborated with Larry Mizell and Marvin Gaye. By the mid-1960s, Laraaji was hosting shows at the legendary Apollo Theater in Harlem, and he was a fixture in the coffeehouse folk scene in the West Village. His first album, Celestial Vibrations, was released in 1978 and soon discovered by Brian Eno, who became one of the musician’s life-long collaborators.
