02.18.23 | anything black or power sounds even more epic in the mid-drift |

02.18.23 | When I was in high school I did, glad I stopped. |

02.18.23 | maudlin of the well bath commonly. I am strange.
I think it's a good way to get tinnitus and inferior sleep. |

02.18.23 | I do it a lot, honestly. A frequent choice of mine there seems to be the ambient side of David Bowie's Low, which always manages to mellow me out after a long day and can also help me when I'm having trouble sleeping.
I might actually put it on tonight, come to think of it... |

02.18.23 | back in highschool my alarm clock was broken soo i had hooked up my comp to my stereo and downloaded some alarm off download.com that let you select what audio file you wanted to play at what time. sooooooo, for a solid year my alarm clock was 'the red chord - nihilist' and id just wake up to it blasting at 6am lol, definitely tripped out of bed more than enough times trying to turn it off |

02.18.23 | my musical sleep aid consisted of nothing but the lofi hiphop anime girl doing her homework videos.
Mostly just sleep with a fan on nowadays. |

02.18.23 | I mean listening to Cannibal Corpse while you're trying to go to sleep is a lot different than putting on some ambient/drone shit or something |

02.18.23 | don't have a speaker setup in my bedroom at this place atm so I use various electronic fan units to produce the ambient noise I demand |
9Hammer
02.18.23 | Interesting seeing the various perspectives and practices. Good ol' white noise in a room helps too. |
SomeCallMeTim
02.18.23 | I have a massive Steve roach playlist for this purpose. Dudes discog is so huge I actually have three playlists with just his music. Since it sometimes is playing when I sleep it really messed up my Spotify end of year data ha |

BAT
02.19.23 | ^used to have avgn, aquateen, or spoony repeating everynight lol.
and yeah i've gotta have fans on to passout, if im somewhere without one i pull up fan noise on youtube. Other YouTube goto background noise is like rlm and vinesauce Vinny/joel |

02.19.23 | when i was in high school i'd fall asleep to dsbm like a fucking maniac but nowadays i ill sleep to some nice shoegaze assuming i didn't pass out watching bobs burgers |

02.19.23 | Anything that is super rhythmic just doesn't work for me, sadly - not even necessarily rhythmic, but percussive rhythm stuff is just a do-go. |

02.19.23 | i can see 5 being lulling... until the end, that is haha |
Demon of the Fall
02.19.23 | Used to do it loads when I was young, all sorts of (seemingly ill-fitting) music too.
So yeah, haven’t done it for well over a decade now, but Boards of Canada was a great choice, Aphex Twin’s ambient stuff and also Sigur Ros.
I could see trying Seefeel, Eno’s ambient works, Popol Vuh, or maybe even Labradford working to an extent. 🤷🏻 I have no personal experience of this group for sleeping. |

02.20.23 | I was on tripping absolute balls on shrooms last week and tried to use sigur ros to fall asleep and it was a hilariously bad idea. Was listening to untitled and it was super pretty but it gets really epic and also has some crazy vocal panning and filter-effects and it would catch me off guard and I'd get hyper-aware of everything lololol. Goooood times |
