This is just a mixtape to help you relax, maybe get some sleep. I tried to get the music to flow together well but it's difficult because so many of them are in major and only a few in minor keys and transition songs are hard to find but I think it turned out pretty well.

tracklist

1 Belle & Sebastian : If You're Feeling Sinister
I don't know if everyone would consider this song relaxing but it really makes me want to lay down and just listen. It's an acoustic song with sort of an uptempo beat but is still rather peacful.

2 The Beatles : Michelle
The Backgroud "ohhs" and the gentle acoustic guitar just scream... or erm, whistper relaxing. Slower acoustic song that goes well coming from Belle and Sebastion and is also semi-downbeat.

3 The Shins : Pink Bullets
This is a more downbeat song than michelle and reminds me of someone riding away on a horse in a desert, pretty relaxing images come to mind for me.

4 Margot & The Nuclear So And So's : A Sea Chanty Of Sorts

5 Interpol : Take You On A Cruise
This song is a bit less depressing, a bit more melonchollie (I like that word, though I think I've been spelling it wrong)and has a droning background as does A Sea Chanty... so it works out pretty well.

6 Pink Floyd : Comfortably Numb
I like this song going from Interpol for some reason. This song always relaxing even with the guitar solo at the end. Pink Floyd has that way of fucking with you.

7 Broken Social Scene : Lover's Spit
This song is starting on the super relaxed Mogwai-Sigur Ros Type stuff but isn't quite there, which is why I used it as a sort of transition song.

8 Radiohead : Kid A
I was tempted to put some other songs from Kid A on here but a lot of them scare me.
This sets up the coming super-relaxing songs.

9 The Album Leaf : Over The Pond
Most of the next few songs are very similar to eachother in that they all sound extremely drugged up. These guys sound a lot like Sigur Ros so I seperated the 2 via Mogwai, which still flows together very well.

11 Sigur Rós : ( 2 ) Fyrsta
What could be more relaxing than Sigur Ros? Not much that I can think of. 7 minutes of listening to what sleeping translated into music sounds like.

14 The Velvet Underground : Sunday Morning
I think this is a really good ending to a CD. Still relaxed, still happy, but different. The similar aspects keep it flowing with the CD but the fact that it's different makes it a good CD ender.

There are some great artists on this. I forgot how much I liked that Shins song and I don't care how cliché this sounds but I always love to see Belle & Sebastian on mixes.
