Techno to sleep to

[beagle171717]

So when I fall asleep I feel the need to listen to music. So I just put on random rock. Well my g/f would perfer something mellower. She loves Paul Oakenfold - Live in Olso (disc 1) I was wondering are there more songs like that album where it is just a mellow cd? If so please inform me.

try some IDM. artists like Black Dog, Plaid, Autechre, Aphex Twin, Squarepusher, Venetian Snares, BoarRAB of Canada...etc.

i also like Frou Frou/Imogen Heap, Future Sound of London, Zero 7, Dj Shadow and Smoke City.

 

[Fresh Princess of VanCity]

I don't know Live In Oslo, so I can't compare this to that, but I found myself having very pleasant sleep when I had tracks from Hybrid's Wide Angle stuck in my head.

Oh, and Steephenbock, I like Vegas, but definitely wouldn't classify it as "mellow". Good energy; good caffeine replacement.

Aphex Twin - Selected Ambient Works (albums)
Aphex Twin - Analord (album)
Aphex Twin - Windowlicker (song)

Chemical Brothers "Exit Planet Dust" Album

 

[Bart S]

I used to love being messed up on valium and having sex to that album. I guess the sleep would just follow...?

 

[Oxl]

There is a series of double compilations called Real Ibiza - great drify music. Soundcolours is a good series too.

 

[penguins87]

Yep, that explains it.

 

[volt55theband]

The Orb.

 

[your_name_here]

i've been a big fan of Blank & Jones - Relax while trying to sleep.

its very mellow... i rarely last thru the first 2 songs.

 

[wabi-sabi]

Future Sound of London is perfect for this
Shulman also
Carbon Based Lifeforms - Hydroponic Garden

[Stanis]

cosigning the FSOL and Aphex Twin.

i go to sleep to Om's mushroom jazz series a lot. the 5th volume is amazing.

 

[That Bald Guy again]

I love Hybrid's - Wide Angle cd

 

[jarrettdooty]

I know this isnt electronic but it is really good to sleep to:

Enya
Tori Amos
Enigma
Deep Forest

But some EDM to listen to falling asleep:

You can try some Minimal like Matthew Dear
Trance Trippin'- I dont really care for Trance but that is a damn good CD
This is hard for me because I really cant fall asleep to any EDM

Try some Deep House, that shit always bores the hell out of me.

I wouldnt listen to Oakenfold, you will wake up retarded.
