How to classify this?

C'mon, c'mon, type it, type it, "new age music". There. I did it.
Not ambient, soothing, relaxing, mellow, muted, over-eq'd, mood or culturally ancient,
and that's not the brujedo Don Juan getting Yaqui with his desert flute.

To be real about it, I see it as one person doing it all with a synthesizer.
The difference here for me, as a genre, is whether it's a drum machine or real drummer.

Eric Satie's "Les Gymnopiedes" is a very meditative piece, Cmaj7 to Fmaj7,
right up there with the solo piano of Beethoven's C#m piece, known as "Moonlight Sonata".
If you want a deep and varied musical voyage, please, listen on studio headphones with
"Moon, turn the tides, gently, gently away, a merman I would be",
on "Electric Ladyland" by Jimi Hendrix, music that moves so much it still moves me.

First piece was very relaxing, I can listen to that sort of thing without any trouble. The rest was interesting, but not really my choice of music.
