I have a set up in my room, where my record player is hooked into my surround sound and I have 2 speakers right near my bed, so before I go to sleep I lay back, and play a soft jazz tune before I fall asleep. Anyone else have similar room set up or sleeping methods.

Heh. Well since it's summer time i use my A/C and turn it on high cool (this is when I actually sleep). Anyways I normally need some kind of background noise so I always use a fan, even in winter time. Just couldn't get used to lyrics in the background cuz if it was on a song I'd like I wouldn't wanna sleep, I'd wanna listen to it or if it was on music i couldn't stand i'd go insane... So yeah a fan pretty much works for me ;)

The music I play before i go to sleep usually has no lyrics, otherwise it would be too hard too fall asleep.

i used to go to bed with NIN closer. My, how the times have changed...
EDIT:i almost forgot, thats only when my GF isnt right next to me, otherwise we leave the tv on sleep timer with adult swim or (ugh) law and order.

I listen to an entire cd sometimes. Just put headphones on and set the player to not repeat. I have listened to Both Coheed cd's and the Avenged cd's and The Mars Volta. I haven't done this in a long time though (about a month).

Sometimes I can leave my TV on and fall asleep, that's actually no problem for me.
Oh, and if that's the case then non-lyrical music might work, as long as it wasn't something I loved (Like beethoven).

Anything by Bela Fleck. Sometimes, when I'm in a nostalgic mood, Temple of the Dog, Mad Season, London Suede's Dog Man Star album. . . occasionally Vivaldi or other classical. Once in a great while, something by Tori Amos.

Now that is some serious sleeping music!

I try to stay awake until I start to hallucinate. Then I leave the music choices up to my new found friends.

I'm with you on that. Records have such a warm sound. CDs are too perfect.
