Er, the title pretty much explains. My wife listens to podcasts and falls asleep to them but I can’t not listen to a human voice so I listen to (ideally instrumental) music.
Anyone else? If so, what do you put on to drift away to?
blue moon take 9/m by elvis presley is an insane experience listening to while teetering between sleeping and awake
Nothing in the general case.
If I’m having issues getting to sleep because of stress, I turn on a Mighty Jingles World of Warships video. I usually don’t make it past the intro and I’m out.
Melodic death metal 🫣
i had a phase where any type of death metal would make me sleepy. not sure why
Soma FM - Dronezone It’s pretty much perfect: free, no commercials, rain, ocean, droney. I actually listen to it most of the day, if I can.
Sometimes there are higher pitched drone tunes that aren’t as dreamy (for me)
Hammock, psychedelic trance music, or there is a lucid dreaming playlist on YouTube Music I like.
ETA “Psybient”, there used to be a perfect playlist called psybient, that may work well as a search term to find that downbeat psychedelic trance music.
No way could I fall asleep to a podcast, but my husband plays Alan Watts explaining meditation, and that I sure can. Maybe it would be a middle ground for y’all - a guided meditation?
I prefer silence, but had to get a white noise machine to help drown out the neighbors. Nothing crazy, I’m just sensitive and grumpy.
Nothing. No music. No white noise (I absolutely hate white noise). Just silence
It’s true, no music is indeed music and this is a perfect answer.
The album These Winter Dreams by All India Radio
Try Brian Enos Music for Airports. Good luck trying to make it through the end without sleeping.
I only listen to something if I’m having trouble turning off my thoughts. In those cases, I listen to the Let’s Read YouTube channel.
Same. I listen to the Sleep With Me Podcast. Something so soothing about that man’s droning voice.
Rain white noise
Usually nothing. But if I need to it’s either Dead Can Dance or Ludovico Einundi.
My go-to is streaming playlists by Northernlion. Something about his voice is incredibly soothing. I think I’ve probably gone through his Rimworld playlists (both of them) at least 10 times over the years.
formula 1 onboard sounds. I’m not kidding, it’s SO relaxing
https://youtu.be/_5Lr6fDIZG8edit: I forgot to mention that I also hear the team radios and can hear them say stuff, so sometimes I’ll be dreaming and my brain will just add in lewis Hamilton or some shit lmao
You wouldn’t have been able to do that during the V10 years.

Let me guess,he’s complaining about his tyres?
