Music that lulls you into a comfortable sleep. Songs to listen to when going to bed.
Many people find it very calming to play soft, soothing music and close their eyes when they go to sleep, right?
I do that sometimes too!
It’s perfect for a nap on a day off, but I’m sure there are also busy people who think, “I can’t seem to get much time to rest…” or “I want something to heal my tired body after work…”
Those are exactly the people I’d love to recommend this to.
I’ve picked out some gentle, sleep-inducing tracks.
Since a variety of people will be reading this, I intentionally chose songs from different genres.
Find the mood you like!
Good night.

There are many kinds of “sleep,” but I think this one is perfect for napping.
It’s a track by Yogee New Waves, a band known for their city pop sound, released digitally in 2021 and included on the album WINDORGAN.
Sunset Rollercoaster’s Kuo is featured on the track.
Give it a listen while picturing the sun slowly sinking into the horizon.

The Blue DanubeJohann Strauss II
It’s a waltz by Johann Strauss II that was used as part of the soundtrack in the film 2001: A Space Odyssey.
Since the piece flows expansively through the space scenes in the movie, watching it with the visuals might be nice before bed.
Its transparent, airy quality makes it a calming waltz.

Air on the G StringYohan Zebasuchian Bakkha
This piece, composed by Johann Sebastian Bach—often called the Father of Music—is known by this name because it can be performed using only the G string, the lowest string on the violin.
As you listen to the gentle shifts in its beautiful harmonies, formed by a slow-tempo main melody and a counter-melody, you too will likely drift into a deep sleep.
