This thread can be used for general recommendations for everyone, so feel free to recommend anything that fits.
For me specifically, I'm looking for soundscape-style music that has the following properties:
- no lyrics
- very "low motion" (the music feels smooth, slow, and uneventful -- no fast or abrupt sounds, rhythms, or melodies)
- euphonic (the music has an overall pleasant sound and feel to it)
A lot of the ambient and drone music out there hits 1 and 2, but doesn't often hit 3. Much of what I've found tends to have a darker or more neutral tone than what I'm looking for, and some of it comes across as a bit grating. I instead want something that's sort of persistently, mildly pleasant, if that makes sense.
EDIT: Forgot to mention that I'm specifically looking for music that I can fall asleep to and read books to, which is why the fact that it should be almost completely unobtrusive is so important!

I was thinking about how much the quantity of election news is likely to increase as we get closer to Nov 3. And more specifically the likelihood that this election will not be clear cut, will be contested, lawsuits filed, etc in the days and weeks after Nov 3.
With that in mind, do we want to proactively put up a weekly (maybe daily for the actual week of) megathread to consolidate some of it?
