the album leaf
daft punk's slower songs, like 'make love' or 'something about us'
andain - the singer has a pretty pretty voice.

[Johnny C]

British Sea Power - Fear of Drowning
Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Rockets Fall on Rocket Falls
Pink Floyd - Shine on You Crazy Diamond, Echoes, Astronomy Domine, etc.

As these are the only songs I've heard, I agree with them, Khar. Also I could see myself falling asleep to "North Hanging Rock," I think it's called.

Kid A can be slept to, and so can the last two Wilco studio records. Seriously, try sleeping to A Ghost Is Born and you'll probably be out at the end of "Muzzle Of Bees."

YHF yes, but Ghost Is Born is too loud to sleep to for me. At Least That's What You Said and Muzzle Of Bees have massive, rocky crescendoes that don't work for when I'm sleeping.

However, I agree on Kid A.

i'd have to say 'the american dollar'
or 'black dahlia murder' can metal me to sleep any day

Bohren und der Club of Gore; my favorite CD for sleeping or any activity at nighttime is "Black Earth".  Sunset Mission is good, but not quite as relaxing.

Orbital - Halcyon (and on and on)

Great song.  Very warm, ethereal feeling.

[Bunnyman]

Aphex Twin - SAW2.  Interesting dreams, that one generates.  Make sure you have an eye on the playlist - one time I awoke to the maniacal laughter in the opening track for Ventolin EP.  That gave me the fear(tm) but good.

Good one.  I love that song.

[CagedinSanity]

Enya is very soothing. No particular song, just her voice.

[TrueNeutral]

So is some Loreena McKennit. (I think I completely mispelled that)

EElS - Blinking Lights And Other Revelations is also nice for sleeping, although can cause some depressing dreaming.

A little off-topic, CagedinSanity, I love your avatar.

While I'm thinking about it, I'll add:
The Shins - Those to Come

[Mattie]

Sigur Ros as many have mentioned...

South
certain Explosions in the Sky songs
Grandaddy
Kinski
Jeff Buckley

[OllieA]

El Ten Eleven
The Six Parts Seven

[Maedros]

Sigur Ros, Mogwai, Enya, Loreena McKennitt, Dean Evenson and Sounds of Nature all work wonders for me. The songs "Solaris" and "Landing" by Juno Reactor are also really good for inducing sleep.

I actually have trouble sleeping to music, I don't really know why no matter how "sleepy" the music is I just can't seem to fall asleep. The only music I can really fall asleep to is music that I am VERY familiar with, it can't be anything at all new. Oh also hip-hop works well for me... I really don't know why but I fell asleep to the new kanye west album a lot when it came out.

Man that album rules.

[Lines]

i can't listen to music and sleep. my brain wants to concentrate on it and analyze it versus putting me to sleep. i think music theory ruined me.

however, what i can listen to is some classical and purely instramental stuff. like soundtracks and what not. if you like choral music, look up eric whitacre. that man is a fucking genius and the music is a-may-ZING. it's so beautiful.
