The perfect playlist for falling asleep
1. Mary by Alex G. This song has the perfect mix of quiet low-fi vocals and slow steady beat. Alex G's monotonous voice creates the perfect sound that is both soothing and loud enough to block out background noise. The lyrics are sort of disturbing but the sound is great for the occasion.  
2. I can't get no satisfaction by Cat Power. This rendition of the famous, upbeat and noisy song is the exact opposite of the original. Power's version is slow, soft and melodious without being dull or depressing, it is just slow enough to gently lead you into sleep. 
3. Catfish by Waxahatchee. Again a slow and melodious low-fi gem, Catfish is slightly sad but hopeful at the same time and creates an ideal dreamy and relaxed tone to set the mood for sleep. As soon as the first chord is strummed, I immediately begin to feel sleepy. 
4. I think I love you by Waxahatchee. This song is just like Catfish but even softer and  more melodies. 
5. Sunshine by Low. This is a great sad core rendition of a happy seeming song but the slow beat and quiet vocals are perfect for sleeping.
