Apparently so effective at inducing sleep, motorists warned not to listen to it.

It slows your breathing and reduces brain activity to such an extent that 'Weightless', written by Manchester band Marconi Union, is said to be the 'most relaxing song ever'.

The band worked with sound therapists to get advice on how to make the most effective use of harmonies, rhythms and bass lines. The result on listeners is a slowing of the heart rate, reduced blood pressure and lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol.

Well finally went to bed at 1am and listened to this. I was still awake by the end but I was completely unaware that I was listening to it until it suddenly stopped, if that makes sense.

I tried it too, I didn't get to the end!  Sleep 

It's very similar to an album by The American Dollar called, err, "Music for Sleep" which you can buy off Bandcamp for peanuts.

It sounds a little 'busy' to me compared to one of my favourite relaxation tracks - Eno's 1/1 from his Music For Airports album.

Mind you if i am tired enough i will go to sleep with Scentless Apprentice blasting through the headphones  Most relaxing song ever created - This song was created by scientists to help you fall asleep. 692773407
