Lullaby's: Songs for sleeping - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Sleepyjack · 11-17-2003, 07:27 AM

aggh, this might be a bit weird? but does anyone use music to get them going to sleep or really help relax themselves such that it's easy to go to sleep?

i remember i might've had some song when i was a kid or something, but know i've found my own thing :P

Sometimes if i have trouble sleeping, i can do other "things" to get to sleep

but sometimes music really helps as well.

Anyway, Aphex Twin Selected ambient works volume 2 has a really relaxing feel for me and sometimes helps me get to sleep, although i end up the stero on which is maybe a waste of electricity?

Anyone els euse any music for this kinda of stuff?

even for some kind of meditation which requires some kind of deep relaxation/escapism?

edit: sorry, i did use a search thing but nothing came up for me?

This week, Hilary Stagg's Dream Spiral is getting the most play.

If you're just looking for ambiance-type stuff, check out Lorna. They're what I listen to most nights to go to sleep.

There are also a couple of songs on here (MP3.com, so hurry before they shut down Dec. 2).

Hope ya like.

Since I wasn't hear a few months ago, I'll add my two cents:

Cocteau Twins, particularly their semi-album The Moon and the Melodies.
Violet Indiana - Roulette
Tricky - Maxinquaye
Massive Attack - Protection, Mezzanine
Sneaker Pimps - Becoming X
Sneakster - Pseudo-Nouveau
Goldie - Saternreturn, disc 1 "Mother", Timeless, disc 2
Elliott Smith - Either/OR
LTJ Bukem - Most anything by him
Various Jazz
Chopin, Mahler, Debussy, Ravel, Bach, Mozart, Gregorian chants, Prokofiev, and other classical music...

same track every night before bed...
the scientist - coldplay....

both me and my girly love it and it always gets us snuggling

Side 2 of <b>Dark Side of the Moon</b>.

Us..us..us..us...and Them..them..them....ZZZZZzzzzzz!

Don't get me wrong, it's one of my favorite albums. I went to sleep listening to this almost every night while in a college dorm. Just something very soothing about it.

ltj bukem mix sets are great. also ray lynch or chicane.

Mazzy Star -- Fade Into You
Telepopmusic --Breathe
Bryan Adams -- Don't Give It Up (Chicane Remix)
