First of all – welcome to our site!

We hope you will enjoy your stay, and find music that is both relaxing and refreshing.

NewAgeMusic.nu is a link between dedicated artists, both major and independent, and loyal new age music fans. Our passion and understanding for the genre bring artists and fans closer together through reviews, interviews and the popular web radio station New Age Stars and NewAgeMusic.nu music streaming service. We pride ourselves in being an independent and trustworthy source for news about new age music.

NewAgeMusic.nu was launched in May 2008 by BT Fasmer, and has since day one been a welcome addition to the new age music scene. New Age Stars Radio, through our partner Live365, came online in December 2008. The NewAgeMusic.nu streaming service was launched in February 2012.  The blog and web radio have been acknowledged as a part of the new music media by leading labels both in US and Europe.  The site is known to be visited regularly by the genre’s finest artists, top music business executives and hardcore new age fans alike.

With daily news updates, artist interviews and a CD quality web radio station, the site grows steadily. In October 2008 NewAgeMusic.nu was asked to join MOG Music Network, giving even more readers.

John P. Olsen joined the site in February 2009 as a contributing member. Now NewAgeMusic.nu proudly delivers contents to NewAgeMusicNews.com and The New Age Music Circle. In January 2010 John P. Olsen launched the wonderful NewAgeMusicWorld.com - our affiliate website. The NewAgeMusic.nu logo and header is designed by bestselling new age music artist Medwyn Goodall.

In February 2011 NewAgeMusic.nu / NewAgeMusicWorld.com were given the chance to be the first sites to review superstar Yanni‘s new album Truth of Touch. We got the album 3 weeks before its release. This is a statement of the site’s success, and the position as world’s no. 1 new age music blogs.

New Age Music is a very interesting genre. It is much larger than people think.

Suzanne Doucet – What is New Age Music

A recurring question when you work with this music genre is what to call it. Is new age really the right word? Or are progressive electronic, contemporary instrumental, world fusion, nu ambient, electronic pop or simply chill better words to describe it? It is hard to say. The “problem” with new age is the quasi-religious aspects, since there is no obvious connection between the music and the spiritual new age movement.

Nevertheless, the use of the term “new age music” is now so widespread that there is no way back. The important thing is that the term is distinctive; as long as one can understand the difference between jazz, blues, classical and new age, the term is OK. But it is not perfect, we’ll agree to that.

The world of new age music is a divided one. It is a question about labels, either major or independent, and about geography – the US scene being the biggest, but Europe and Asia are also important markets. Time is also a factor. Most of today’s major artists debuted in the late 70s and early 80s. There are few new major stars in this genre, but a large number of independent artists – and the number is growing every month thanks to the Internet. For a sub genre like new age music, we believe the internet has only been positive. A lot of today’s artist would not have been published by the big music business, since it doesn’t have mass appeal. At the same time the music industry has given opportunities to some trully great artists – and it is a fact that new age artists can sell 70-80 million+ albums (Enya and Jean Michel Jarre)…

NewAgeMusic.nu is a two way system. It is a page where new age fans can discover music and even blog about it if they want (send us an email if you want to join our friendly crew). It is also a free promotion tool for new age musicians and independent labels. So if you create or publish great music, we want to know about it – and we’ll tell the world!

This page is our quest for simply great new age music. If you want to join us, you are more than welcome

Please note that we get a lot of mail. Questions regarding the genre and new age music fan related enquiries have priority.
