Best/Worst Music to Nap to

post #1 of 32
Thread Starter 

So, I have developed a habit of recharging my batteries with a nap and some music. Today, I fell asleep to Crystal Castles and dreamt I was living in my NES system. So, I am hoping some people can suggest some good music to REM with, and some albums to avoid.

I don't dream much but Joni Mitchell's Blue is my go-to nap album.  I also enjoy Belle & Sebastian's The Boy with the Arab Strap but the title track has massive bass for some reason.  Didn't notice it before but it woke me up the other day and I couldn't go back to sleep after.

I used to listen to DSOTM before bed at night (high school and college), but now I tend to listen to Bon Iver or Fleet Foxes.  The other day I fell asleep listening to Jerry Garcia and David Grisman-Been All Around This World, and it was quite relaxing.  I would imagine some sort of death metal would be the worst to nap to, at least I couldn't do it.

I'd avoid that one, Lemon Jelly is much safer.

Well Burial would probably be pretty chill to nap to.  Popular bass-dropping dubstep (wobblestep?), not so much.

Best for me is definitely jazz. Specifically something more a little laid-back and bluesy(like soul-jazz), and not something really upbeat and fast(like bebop). I fall asleep to jazz just about every night.

Can you suggest an album by Little Dragon? I haven't gotten into it yet, but I liked them on Empire Ants off the new Gorillaz album.
