For my money, Keiji Haino/Nijiumu - Era Of Sad Wings is the ultimate sleep album. Can't count how many times I've drifted off to that. As a result, although I love it, I'm only actually really familiar with the first half of the album...

The Cure - Disintegration
Laura Veirs - Year of meteors

Somnium by Robert Rich is perfect.

Sundog Peacehouse - Brosound

A recent discovery. Nearly perfect for all fans of drone/ambient music

When I lie down at night with headphones, just about ANY music will put me to sleep. It's just that I wake up as it ends then have trouble falling back.

However, I'd suggest Music for Airports by Brian Eno.

Can't be arsed reading 6 pages, but surely someone has said Eno's Ambient 1 by now? That's actually the most-played album on my computer after I put it on just about every night for 6 months...

Tunnels.

They sent me to sleep, and rarely woke me up, last night.

Loveless usually puts me to sleep, generally the only reason I listen to it these days is when I can't sleep. Them playing a riff over and over and over and over makes me phase out.

I second the Galaxie 500 stuff. So relaxing and dreamy.

Faith by The Cure is a really moody album that is slow paced and builds up to things. If I'm even a little tired and I listen to it I slowly drift off.

sleeping to Loveless??? blasphemy! hahaha

i sleep to music everynight and i tend to use alot of Morcheeba, Brian Eno, Portishead, Tangerine Dream... even Joni Mitchell's album Mingus is really soothing

I've had serious problems with my sleep,

Listening to most of Porn Sword Tobaccos records helped a lot.
A good recomendation for those who wants to fall asleep..but we're all different so I can't promise anything.

hardfuckingcore sleeping music you got there.

I like listening to artists that focus around looping for sleep induction... William Basinski, and even some of Xenakis' works if you find the right tracks.

I have been listening to Fripp/Eno's ''Evening Star'' regularly before falling asleep, recently.

I recorded Papa M a couple weeks ago, they were supporting Dirty Three. Didn't like their performance much. But the recording is great music to put me to sleep. One tone looped, then another tone, etc etc etc
It's David Pajo, formerly in Slint.
