7. Jonn Serrie - And the Stars Go With You (1987)

Jonn Serrie's name is synonymous with spacemusic. The composer is renowned for his numerous works commissioned by planetariums around the world, and Serrie's 1987 debut album And the Stars Go With You reshaped and redefined ambient spacemusic. Serrie was working on the Teacher in Space Project for NASA in '86, and composed musical material for the event. The Challenger disaster affected him deeply, and Serrie expressed his feelings musically-the results becoming his first album. In '88, the album was used in the opening production ceremony of the Christa McAulliffe Planetarium in Concord, New Hampshire, and the music is dedicated to her memory. Although Stars is more often associated with "spacemusic" as opposed to "ambient," the line separating the two subcategories is a blurry one, and many listeners use this album as an atmospheric backdrop, rather than a soundtrack for their own space journeys.
