What are some of your favorite albums or artists to listen to when you're laying in bed with headphones on feeling "meditative" and drifting off to sleep? Stuff that's down tempo but that has a lot of layers or complexity to it.

A few of mine:

Boards of Canada
James Blake
Fleet Foxes
Alcest (the newest album)
Laura Marling
Mutual Benefit
Julianna Barwick (her album "The Magic Place" is awesome).
DJ Cam


Lots more that I've used in the past, but those are some off the top of my head.

There is a playlist on Spotify that is called "Jazz for Sleep" that is perfect for this.

Personally, I listen to episodes of Trailer Park Boys while I fall asleep.

Wild Nothing- Nocturne

I use to get down with Portishead for sleep back in the day

I am weird in that I prefer to have the noise of a TV show when I fall asleep. Preferably something comedic. I think it is so I don't sit there trying to go to sleep with my shitty thoughts.

Agree with Morcheeba.

"Enjoy the Ride" I can listen to on repeat endlessly.

Old Peter Gabriel... Here Comes the Flood, Red Rain, Mercy Street, San Jacinto, etc..

It's a shame that Gilmour turned a great band into elevator music. It's decent as ambient music, but it's just not Pink Floyd and shouldn't be sold as such.
