music to fall asleep to
 

hey just like almost everyday i´m looking for some new music. maybe you got any tips for me. i searching for music that i can fall asleep to. shouldn´t be to dramatic or drone styled (excuse my bad englisch).
this is what i like
can-future days
ash ra tempel - 77slightly delayed and sunrain (album:blackouts, new age of earth)
faust-disconnected
ulrich schnauss-a strangely isolated place
my bloody valentine - loveless
and of course
sonic youth - f.e sympathy for the strawberry and many more


any tips:confused:

Try this. The whole album seems to have been recorded in the space between consciousness and unconsciousness.

a real good tip but i alreay know it and i´m also already "using" it :-)

João Gilberto's 1973 s/t.

Dolphins into the Future, Oneohtrix Point Never, Emeralds, Ducktails, Evan Miller, John Fahey, Mark McGuire, Steve Hauschildt, all get played often when I'm going to sleep

thanx. i´ll check it and i´ve sent you a friend request on last.fm

For me, Shuttle 358 and Aidan Baker are never a bad option.

yeah..aidan baker
radiohead's 'kid a' works for me as well.
or any binaural recording

i just can´t stand the voice of thom yorke. it´s too dramatic for me. going to check out aidan baker now. dolphins into the future are great. they are connected to skaters right?

hahaha x)

mark mcguire's guitar meditations is all i sleep to

Dead Man soundtrack.

Try THIS :D
oh and welcome on board!

Slowdive - "souvlaki" or any other release
Hash Jar Tempo - "under glass"
Caribou - "andorra"
The Clean - "getaway"
Lilys - "eccsame the photon band"
The Sea & Cake - "nassau"
Swirlies "what to do about them" & "blonder tongue audiobaton"

These have been doing it for me lately.

natural snow buildings, stars of the lid, and robedoor is usually what I fall asleep to.

Anything by Hammock should do the trick.

I've seen you mention them before, so I decided to listen. Holy shit. I Love them! It's amazing. I can't get over it. Haha

Yeah they're un fucking believable.

Obvious of course, but 90% of Eno's catalog works very well.

Dreamweapon by the Spacemen 3
Palace Brothers fist l.p.
The Moon and the Melodies by Cocteau Twins with Harold Budd
Leonard Cohen's Greatest Hits
anything by John Fahey

Fairuz. It's in Arabic so, unless you can understand Arabic, you'll just listen to her voice without getting all caught up in the lyrics.

Pygmalion by Slowdive

Performance art
I'm the king
So grab a hammer
Nail me to something
Let's go
To the park and maybe eat a fur coat.
Spray me with blood
And write
The word "guilt" all over my face
Hurry up
I'm the King of Performance Art!

Let's go to the park
Saturday
I'll eat one hundred apples
While you burn
My feet
Until I scream and people gather around!

Performance art
Is my gig
I'll stab myself while you
squeal like a pig
Jessica
Can work the crowd and pass out literature.
The critics won't
Understand
No one will, they're programmed
by the Man
So lets, take these manekin parts down to the park.
Performance art...
Oh we're so f**ing dark!
Performance art...
Oh, we're so f***ing dark!

Performance art... performance art!
