3. Wendy Carlos - Sonic Seasonings (1972)

This 1972 recording predated the categories of ambient or new age music, but using only her Moog Synthesizer and recorded environmental sounds, Carlos created the prototype for ambient recordings on the double LP Sonic Seasonings. In the format of Vivaldi's baroque classic "Four Seasons," Sonic Seasonings remains an aural experience unmatched musically and unsurpassed in originality. "Spring" provides a rainstorm; "Summer" conveys relentless heat; "Fall" visits an oceanside campfire; and "Winter" conveys the bitter coldness of that season's brutal wind. Carlos re-mastered the recent reissue that also contains a previously unreleased 40-minute two-part suite from 1986 titled "Land of the Midnight Sun."
