Music to Fall Asleep to Mar 14, 2008 1:26:38 GMT -5

Post by generalstore on Mar 14, 2008 1:26:38 GMT -5

So after listening to the epic 2 hour Jacket NPR stream, I am finding it difficult to fall asleep. Any recommendations for an album to help take you off to dreamland?

I'm listening to my usual stand by, Through the Sparks' Lazurus Beach, but it's not cutting it tonight. Help me Inforoo! You're my only hope...

On second thought, maybe it's not such a good idea to ask a bunch of insomniacs advice on how to sleep Well maybe tomorrow someone will wake up, put up some good ideas, and I'll store it away for future reference.

My favorite to fall asleep to is 'You Are Free', mostly just her and the piano. Joanna Newsom is also another great one to put on that time of night.

I've got a bad habit of needing a tv on to fall asleep, and I never set a sleep timer...which I'm sure is no good for my tv, dvd player, or myself...so I usually put on a movie to fall asleep rather than music. and for this I recommend:

underworld
lord of the rings trilogy
any kind of anime, but especially something with dreamy dvd menu music...

"Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of Fuel. Sentimental people call it Inspiration, but what they really mean is Fuel. I have always needed fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio."

I lay in bed every night with my headphones on. I don't have an iPod or MP3 player because I've gone thru 2 that have broke but I listen to a CD every night and most times I don't want to fall asleep because I want to listen to some music and I've gotten in a routine of this. Here are some of them that have been more recent:

Bob Dylan
Neil Young
Grateful Dead
Jack Johnson
Plant and Krauss
Ryan Adams
Wilco
String Cheese Incident
My Morning Jacket
Bela Fleck
Sigur Ros
Arcade Fire
The Shins
Polyphonic Spree
Guster
David Ford
Ray Lamontagne
The National
Jose Gonzalez
Band of Horses

and I generally try to either stick with something newer to me or a band I might be going to see soon or as always, anyone who's playing the upcoming Bonnaroo

Yeah, Sigur Ros is great for winding down late at night, even though it definitely has its loud moments.
