93 'til Infinity by Souls of Mischief is usually my go to.
That's great yeah.
Hopeful Weeds is an incredible track that nobody has ever heard of. It's a track Yasunori Mitsuda wrote for his short-lived fan club, and to my knowledge it has never been re-released.
The track is so amazingly calming, and it's got a sound that makes you feel amazingly refreshed. It's an instant improvement on any kind of bad day.
Our Way to Fall by Yo La Tengo. Just a very dreamy ballad. The stress melts away.
Deep Peace by Devin Townsend is a song that no matter how terrible I feel, no matter how depressed or sad I'm feeling, I can listen to it and calm right back down.
For me, it'd probably be Real Estate - White Light. I find this band's music to really put me at ease
Goodnight Moon - Boogie Belgique
The whole album is solid for a variety of moods, but this is my goto chill out/reset track on a shit day.
I'm gonna cheat with a one-song album: Thick as a Brick by Jethro Tull. It goes back, I think, to when I couldn't sleep one night, my dad gave me his cd player with that on it. I didn't fall asleep in the 45 minutes it was playing, but it relaxed me, and always has.
On bad days I like to listen to Heavenly Day by Patty Griffin. It reminds me of all the good things in world.
I've got a few, in no particular order
Down in the Valley — The Head and the Heart
Motion Sickness — Phoebe Bridgers
Concerning the UFO Sighting Near Highland, Illinois — Sufjan Stevens
Miserere Mei, Deus — performed by the Choir of New College, Oxford (the treble in this always gives me chills)
Falling Ashes — Slowdive
Taro — Alt-J (∆)
...and really a considerable amount of my entire spotify. Most of what I listen to is comforting in some way, but here are a few highlights.
Black by Danger Mouse & Daniele Luppi. Especially with Norah Jones's vocals, it just puts me in a great state of mind.
Lately it's been Lover by Emily C. Browning as i find it to be just a lovely smooth tune
Anything from Tycho's Dive album. It helps me relax just as much as it it helps me focus and crank out some work.
En Route sounds like you're sitting next to a campfire
