Good sleep music?

[slain]

Some nights I have trouble sleeping, so I listen to music on a fairly low volume. Our Lady Peace or Matthew Good Band usually does the trick, but I'd like to make a CD of different songs that can help me sleep. Preferably really slow rock and stuff(Genesis and Phil Collins does the trick too). So give me some suggestions, so I can make a great sleeping CD.

[Chris the Human]

I like atmospheric stuff, I guess. Stuff like Sigur Ros, Mogwai etc.

[Cactus Drags]

Explosions in the Sky or Band of Horses.

[Dan]

Anything Acoustic usually does it for me.

[Bushmeister]

Explosions in the Sky or Band of Horses.

[GoGo Yubari]

Miles Davis.

Miles Davis.

"He Loved Him Madly", despite the meaning behind it, somehow manages to relax me to no end. To further this, I suggest some of the lighter Coltrane works, alongside some Thelonious Monk.

[Skummy]

I've got a playlist set up specifically for this purpose, and it consists mostly of Explosions In The Sky, Mogwai, A Silver Mt. Zion and SunnO))) & Boris, with the odd track by Angelo Badalamenti (Twin Peaks theme will do the job), or someone like This Mortal Coil or Antony & The Johnsons.

[Cactus Drags]

Explosions in the Sky or Band of Horses.

Seconding these. I also have a whole lot of ambient albums that I usually play to help me get sleep. Boards Of Canada is a very good choice, as well as Global Communication and Steve Roach's ambient works like "Terraform" and "Space & Time".

[THEXTREMIST]

Mark Lanegan'll do the trick anytime

[Nerf]

Pink Floyd.

[Bloodbath]

Opeth's "Damnation" album is a great album to fall asleep to.

[GRIFT]

Good call on the OLP and Mathew Good. I suggest some of Pearl Jams softer stuff, maybe Raine Maida's solo stuff; also check out Team Sleep.

[Lowerdeck]

Enya? The soft Sarah McLaughlin shit?

[tomroe]

Shadow of the Day, Valentines Day, and The Little Things Give You Away by Linkin Park

[New Damage]

"Bring Me Down" by Puddle Of Mudd.

"Wake up, and fall back asleep, you're slowly fading".

Worked this morning with it's subliminal messages. Made me late for a riveting maths lecture at Uni. <_>

I'd suggest songs without words, as I find myself singing/following along with the words in my head.

[Rashid]

The albums "Wish You Were Here", "Animals", and "Meddle" by Floyd I'd imagine would be good albums to sleep to. I once tried sleeping to Dark Side, but the clocks woke me back up....

Also, just about anything by King Crimson.

[METALMAN]

Beirut is good.

[Boogey131]

Bright Eyes, some of the slower Modest Mouse songs and as previously mentioned Pink Floyd, Shine on you Crazy Diamond is my personal favorite sleepy song.

[probablyoliver]

Sigur Rós, Anthony and the Johnsons, Devendra Banhart, Team Sleep and DeFacto. That's a sleepy, sleepy album right there.
