For the last six weeks I have suffered from pretty serious insomnia, I can never get to sleep before 3.30 or 4. Its starting to drive me nuts. I have tried alcohol, herbal tea, valerian root and medicinal "smoking mixtures" but nothing has worked for me. So I thought I would kill two birds with one stone make a mixtape and try to listen to some tunes that would help me drift off. Fingers Crossed!

Level 27
Insomnia mixes, like study time mixes, have to be instrumentals that have no "history" associated with them, or the wheels spin even worse and I get distracted from the task at hand.

Great mix. I still have KLF's The White Room on tape. Luv Goldfrapp.
