Meditative Music Playlist: Slow Down A Little

I have felt a lot of mental ups and downs recently in myself and people around me. Fluctuations in mood and demeanor effect yourself and others. I often resort to confrontation and while talking can solve things, sometimes you need to check yourself and allow things to roll off your shoulders.  Here is some music I have collected that I often turn to in an effort to escape mindsets that are detrimental to my day to day happiness...Maybe these can help someone else too. 

DJ Krush was a producer I came across a year or so ago when I was trying to learn more about Japan's production scene. The first few tracks in this always calm me and then Black Thought comes in and kills a verse but there is something still incredibly soothing about the project. 

Some of you might have heard of the Sea Organ someone made in Croatia. Its more or less a harmonica someone made on the coast that utilizes the waves to play music. Listening to music nature created on accident makes me slow down and appreciate more things. 

I use this so much. I have certainly posted this on the site before but never the less I feel like its so crucial to who I am today. This track is a reminder to not rush through life...I don't want to go over the top in how much this song means to me but John Williams is a genius. 

This track is both calming and daunting. William Basinski uses a disintegrating loop to translate the aspect of  life that is inevitable. When I first listened to this I felt an overwhelming sense of not being in this anxiety ridden path of life alone. Not being alone is a really nice thing. Don't feel like that.
