A call for sleep-inducing ideas, please : Laura, my 9-year old, is insomniac and walks about the house in the dead of night, waking us all up - then she has the habit of putting on story tapes with their intoning voices further keeping us all from falling asleep ... so I've decide to embark upon a little project of compiling her an ambient sleep tape. She likes BDP's Bytes, Aural Expansion, 76:14, Woob - that sort of thing (because, besides breastmilk, my two offspring were nursed on Decent Music!) - so she's been exposed to a variety of soundscapes in this vein and enjoys it. I'd really appreciate any recommendations - sounds you like to drift off to sleep to, or just stuff so boring it makes you pass out. No Atari Teenage Riot please << :-) >>. I *

My favourite somnambulistic(?!) listening for the last 10 years has been Talk Talk's Spirit of Eden. This is a uniquely beautiful album - so much space around the sounds, it drips with atmosphere. OK so it's not electronic and OK it's old, but hell... it does it for me. (for the more maturer listener I'd also recommend it for mood music, again... it does it for me.) As a great lover of ambient sounds I can't help but also recommend selected tracks from This Mortal Coil, David Sylvian, Harold Budd, Brian Eno. Simon Jeffries work with Penguin Cafe Orchestra is also pretty good - the repetitious phrasing is very soothing. regards, Nick (an old insomniac)

Just when you thought this thread was asleep :) (I'm catching up on old messages here). I'd suggest a CD literally made for the situation: Mark Mothersbaugh - _Musik for Insomniaks Vol. 1_ [Enigma] Most of you probably know him from his Devo days, but this CD from '88 is different and fits the title: hypnotic and melodic (and some boring) tracks composed on a Fairlight synth -- perfect for dozing off to. I believe this CD has been out of print for awhile, but scour the used racks and maybe you'll get lucky. __________________________________________ E r i c F r a n s :: efrans@earthlink.net [cellular] http://home.earthlink.net/~efrans [so-cal idm] http://home.earthlink.net/~efrans/scidm [si-{cut}.db] http://home.earthlink.net/~efrans/benford

To everybody who mailed me in response to my query, I appreciate your input very much! There have been some really helpful ideas, as well as pointers to music I shall have to seek out in the future. I've been too tired to make the compilation, but will draw on all your ideas to get a good one together. Thanks! <<<yawn>>> Also : one item more than one of you have mentioned in this regard is Biosphere's Substrata, which I have just received in the mail from //waving AND drowning// - beautifully packaged and sent to me all the way from America. It's a huge pleasure doing business with this IDM'er : he's currently advertising many F/S lists, and I can only say a big public Thank You to him. I *

Try Harold Budd, Simon Raymonde, Robin Guthrie, Elizabeth Fraser - "The Moon and the Melodies". Both this one and Talk Talk "Spirit of Eden", mentioned earlier, would always make me slide off my chair onto the floor in the middle of the day. Put it on repeat if you have nothing to do for the next 18 hours. Mr. Gil gil@L0PHT.COM (L-zero-P-H-T) No authority is self-justified. Resist.
