Songs to relax and tune out to

Bollocks_to_Pop · 05.27.2007, 03:05 AM

Today was a long day and I just wanted something to listen to that I didn't have to give that much attention to but just could kind of relax with. I listened to Let's Talk About Cars by the Butthole Surfers (off the horrible Electriclarryland. It was good just because it was just relaxing and because the people in the song are talking in French and so I didn't pay attention to what they were saying. Anyway, long story short does anyone have any recommendations of songs like that?

sure. that reeeeeeeeally long stereolab song off of dots and loops. or jenny iodine or whatever it's called by stereolab that's like 20 minutes.

i chill out to squarepusher and stars of the lid usually.

I still ain't got any Butthole Surfers records. I saw an album of theirs on vinyl a few weeks ago but I think it was like $20Aus secondhand. So I declined the purchase for now.

the first song on that tortoise cd is so good. damn.

_slavo_ · 05.27.2007, 04:19 AM

exactly, "Djed".

atsonicpark · 05.27.2007, 04:22 AM

yes.

easily one of the best songs of all time.

Yeah, Tortoise is a good choice to relax, there's no lyrics. I'd choose TNT, the 1st track is awsome. Maybe the whole albums would be too much, a little bit boring.

if you want good french music try Serge Gainsbourg, this for instance: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_lis...8B2550A208EE23

Thanks a lot. I've been meaning to get some Tortise, but I just haven't found time/money to get any of their stuff. I'll check that other stuff too once I get enough money.
