I should say I'm 6 months older than you! Those antiques and gardening programmes seem to get better as you get older

The antiques ones get a bit scary when you remember your parents buying the things that people have brought in.

Do Make Say Think - Goodbye Landlord......
A perfect album to just sit around and do nothing.

When I was little, I would watch this Sesame Street video called Bedtime Stories and Songs. It's a masterpiece.

loveless or siamese dream

Sonic Youth 37 06.17.2006 12:01 AM

Loveless...turned down really low or if you can fall asleep with noise turned way up. Either way, if I'm tired and its dark, I can hardly stay awake while listening to it. Or go with some Floyd or Miles Davis

I love Floyd, but I can't listen to them when I'm trying to chill out, the lyrics just keep drawing me in. I've always wished there was more instrumental Floyd.

Its usually either the Smashing Pumpkins' 'Siamese Dream' (although its more my getting up in the morning album) or 'Mellon Collie & The Infinite Sadness'. Although 'Daydream Nation' is usually quite relaxing (put some candles on, light some insense sticks and fall slowly to sleep). Don't ever put 'Bad Moon Rising', 'Goodbye 20th Century', 'Invito Al Cielo' or anything by John Cage on before you go to bed...The Nightmares man! The Nightmares! lol

I would say 'Dark Side of the moon' but its too depressing to fall asleep to!

While studying i found out rather quiet/monotonous (noise/drone) music works fine for me. Persian surgery dervishes by Terry Riley was an awesome listen too!

jon boy 06.17.2006 06:10 AM

at the moment if i am in a quiet mood i listen to JOMF, six organs of admitance, pelt or john coltrane. sometimes supersilent 6.

RdTv 06.17.2006 07:58 AM

Right now, I'm doing some Miles Davis - Silent Way....damn what a great album...

toxic johnny 06.17.2006 08:07 AM

Out of One, through One and to One - Double Leopards...

Although I hate the idea of chill out music...

SuchFriendsAreDangerous 06.18.2006 08:00 PM

the ultimate mellow out moment of the day for me, is to light a spliff, take a deep drag, and get into the groove and the let the good times roll to the perfect dead versions of the 12 minute scarlet begonias -> 15 minute fire on the mountain. nothing is more pacifying for me..

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 06.18.2006 08:04 PM
