Michael Brook with Brian Eno and Daniel Lanois - Hybrid (1985)
As a massage therapist, this is one of my "go-to" albums when it comes to relaxing music for massage. It's also great for meditating, working on your computer or any number of things when you might want to enhance your environment with a mellow atmosphere. In my profession, I typically have a whole hour to concentrate on music while I'm working, so I'm very in tune with what a relaxing album has to offer. Often massage therapists use New Age-y kinds of music but this is something different. Some of the songs feature very hypnotic processed tribal rhythms, not typically heard in a massage studio, but it's actually quite relaxing and thus appropriate. Other songs are serene and almost still, much more ambient. Some of the pieces even sound more like environmental recordings than music. The only drawback is one track toward the end which sounds a bit like a siren and is thus vaguely unsettling. However, this is only a minor complaint and it's not likely to bother most people. A most enjoyable record, one I return to often and I've yet to get sick of it.
