RE: What else do you listen to these... (in reply to Arash)
Grondona plays old Spanish guitars. (The link is a playlist, not sure how the embedding will affect that, I tried to post as a link. Same with the next one.)
John Barry's score for On Her Majesty's Secret Service
Aloÿs Fornerod I like some of his piano music and it is refreshingly different. I found him because he wrote one piece for guitar.
RE: What else do you listen to these... (in reply to Arash)
It's funny you've mentioned the old synth rock as recently I've been listening to quite a bit of Krautrock from the 70s. My inspiration came from remembering how much I loved the music of Michael Rother back in the day. I went in Apple Music and downloaded a bunch of his stuff and now it's compiled a few different playlists of the genre that I play in the background. Very relaxing music and the playlists have led to the discovery of quite a few artists from the era that I hadn't known about.
Here's one of Michael Rother's pieces that I remember well. One memory I have of this song is of lying in bed on a hot summer's night in a high floor hotel room in a big city I was visiting. I had left the curtains open so I could look out at the city lights while this lulled me to sleep. For some reason, that memory has never left me.
