Anything by Primitive Technology!

He makes things using simple tools. No voiceover, just nature sounds and some scraping and banging, very relaxing stuff

I like scraping and banging.

Too much focus required to read the subtitles though.. Without them you miss so much

[–] Carnelian@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

100% of the content will be missed after falling asleep

I put on PBS Space Time mix and let it go all night. I want my YouTube ad money to go to a good place.

Purge reviewing dota2 patch notes. I'd usually sleep around letter B and wake up on K or so.

Arvo Pärt - Spiegel im Spiegel (full album) 47 min https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4RmJaP683A

My "fall asleep" list also includes

Arvo Pärt - Cantus in memoriam Benjamin Britten (8 min).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sp2oxWdRMuk

Philippe Gaubert - Madrigal (4 min).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xv-bcyezUpE
which would bring it to almost an hour.

Edit: Maybe Fauré - Pavane arranged for flute and piano (6 min) to tide it over.

Sean Carroll - Biggest Ideas in the Universe | 22. Cosmology

James May The Reassembler

The podcast version of "the why files."

Only 36 minutes, but it's what I'm listening to as I type this.

Don't know if you'll be able to fall asleep to it, but squeeze this in your watchlist.

Apparently anything with Super GT where he's playing in the video and talking over it (most of his videos) is very effective sleep material. From experience (not on purpose, I was actually watching but fell asleep; happened many times), but also I found out in a video that he said his viewers have commented that they use his videos as sleep aid.

Please enjoy. I have no affiliation with him, FYI.
