Well I did one time slept due to Lamb of God, and I was playing their Ashes of the Wake album. To be honest that was the time that I need to stay awake for I was doing something important but ended falling asleep even with Lamb of God playing xD.
I usually fall asleep whenever I listen to the Spaceplan OST (Bandcamp) or the Quake OST (I promise the forum I linked is safe and the download host seems fine as well) at night. Spaceplan is a chill bassy electronic soundtrack which makes sense for sleep, but quake is a strange unsettling ambient soundtrack. I guess itâs the bass, repetition, and droning sounds that knock me out.
iirc so called Binaural beats and Isochronic tones are a thing, depending on the waves youâre using to induce yourself with. Binaural beats with Delta waves through listening, makes me sleep surprisingly well and I am not sure about it for the others but it works for me so far.
When I have a problem falling asleep I just put on some George Winston on my Amazon echo and set a 2 hr timer⌠Next thing I know it is time to get up and at itâŚ
I have a fan running in the background. Any kind of music would keep me awake. I have a hard enough time shutting my brain down without the added distraction of music. Itâs why I have thought I am slightly on the spectrum, ever since learning it exists. At times I donât think my brain operates like a ânormalâ persons does.
Its not supposed to⌠That is why you joined us, to be amongst the brain damaged !! LOL!!
May not be up to everyoneâs taste, but this is my knock out music for when I need to sleep fast

interesting choices there for sleeping
I avoid vocals and stick to instrumental.
Can recommend Marconi Union âweightlessâ as studies show it can reduce anxiety levels.
It was actually written in collaboration with sound therapists.
yeah kind of agree there, I find instrumentals only much effective to put you to sleep. If only Only Time by Enya has an instrumental version, that could help me put to sleep.
Should do itâŚ

This has been my favorite for a while now.
Here is my playlist. I also use generally relaxing music or ASMR.

Like you, I enjoy ambient sounds for sleep. When it comes to music, my top picks include Erik Satieâs âGymnopĂŠdie No.1â and Claude Debussyâs âClair de Luneâ. Their slow tempo and gentle soundscapes make them perfect for winding down. For something different, Brian Enoâs âMusic for Airportsâ creates a calming environment. I also have a personal favorite, much like your âChampagne Supernovaâ: âHoloceneâ by Bon Iver, which has the right tranquil melody to help me âlet goâ.

I tried all kinds of albums to fall asleep to. Couldnât get along with anything until I came across Chad Lawson.
He has a podcast called âCalm It Downâ. I havenât listened to it yet, but his albums sure work for me after trying everything else I came across that was recommended for bedtime.
