Music effective for meditation. Recommended BGM to calm the mind.

Do you know about meditation?

Basically, you close your eyes and either think quietly or, conversely, empty your mind.

By calming the mind through meditation, it is said to help reduce stress and improve your overall condition.

In this article, I’ll introduce music that is effective for meditation.

With meditation and music, please take some time to relax your mind and body, which may be accumulating daily fatigue.

Music effective for meditation: Recommended calming BGM (31–40)

Space Ambient MusicCryo Chamber

This is an ambient piece that evokes the vastness of outer space.

Ambient music is a type of environmental music that you can listen to without focusing on it.

It’s often used for falling asleep or relaxing.

Since it’s over 40 minutes long, it might be nice to put it on before bed.

Sweet LullabyDeep Forest

Deep Forest – Sweet Lullaby (Original Completo)
Sweet LullabyDeep Forest

Deep Forest successfully fused ethnic music and its vocal tones with European chillout and ambient.

Nostalgic tribal resonances, flutes, gentle beats, and an ethnic vibe.

Perfect for relaxing at bedtime.

Orinoco FlowEnya

This is “Orinoco Flow” by the hit artist Enya.

With this soothing chorus, you can adjust the reverb-like resonance yourself, and not only the beautiful melody but also your mind and body will be enveloped in a dreamy sound.

It might be perfect to listen to on a quiet night.

Gymnopédie No. 1Erik Satie

Nobuyuki Tsujii – Erik Satie: Gymnopedies
Gymnopédie No. 1Erik Satie

Erik Satie’s masterpiece Gymnopédie No.

1 is a gentle, beautiful piano work that feels like a soothing spell.

Within its unhurried flow, a wistful yet warm melody cuts through the silence and resonates deeply with the listener.

The slightly melancholic harmonies spin out a relaxed sense of time, as if making you forget the bustle of everyday life.

It’s perfect for calming the mind on a quiet, long night—why not indulge in a brief escape from reality while listening to this piece?

V.A.IN YA MELLOW TONE

A pioneering work that laid the foundation for modern jazzy, mellow hip-hop.

This album series launched a variety of artists, each gaining their own fans.

If you’re looking to relax, this is the album.

I recommend playing it softly in the background as BGM.

Music effective for meditation. Recommended calming BGM (41–50)

Brain ImagingNeural Oscillations

Neural Oscillation’s “Brain Imaging.” As the band’s name—literally “vibrations of the mind”—suggests, it’s a track where sounds overlap, resonate, and sway in a pleasing way.

The long, sustained backing notes that embody the theme of this dreamy song feel very comfortable, making it a piece that could also work well for meditation or yoga.

Fjögur píanóSigur Rós

Sigur Rós – Fjögur píanó [Official Music Video]
Fjögur píanóSigur Rós

When it comes to post-rock, this band, Sigur Rós, comes to mind.

Like Björk, they’re from Iceland, and there’s something they share in common.

The gently flowing piano melody seems like it could calm the heart and melt away stress.
