I got two kids and a wife in the house all day while I work. Here are a few albums/tunes that lower my blood pressure...what are yours?

I don't think any album is at its best on headphones but as far as calming music for your headphones here are the first albums that popped in my head:

Sade - Diamond Life, Love Deluxe

Any of the Mushroom Jazz compilations by Mark Farina

A lesser known gem I just found: Vick Lavender - Architect
Handsome debonair fella, Got the Mellow Yellow bezel, Black rims on the Phantom same color Dr. Pepper.

very little music calms me down but I put this on sometimes if I'm feeling overwhelmed, dunno why it helps

this album has its moments of intensity, i guess, but i always return to songs like these when i want to feel like i'm drifting through spacelessness...





edit: oh, and as far as the headphones go, have fun getting lost in the layers of sound

check out the Soft Sounds for Gentle People compilations.  I have vol 1 and 2 and I love them, unfortunately Youtube starts at vol 3 but still sounds really good, and calming.



these are my go to's when I just want something soft and mellow:

whole skyrim soundtrack is fire I love how it rotates semi-randomly (or randomly?)

That game's dungeons are a pain in the ass and kinda repetitive though. I like playing that one on PC so you can just pull up the cheats menu and walk through walls.

They made those dungeons so the way out is near the entrance so you can just clip through the exit bypassing the entire dungeon generally. Think there are a few exceptions.

Best/Most boring way to play that game is to

-cheat heavily
-get that headband that lets you use two of those stones (I take the plus 100 carry capacity and I forget what the other one was)
-get the firey soultrap enchantment
-max out sneak/archery
-snipe out the dragon priests while abusing the save feature (I just hide out of bounds and poke them with arrows)
-get the 10 dragon masks
-put them on that thing and go to the alternate dimension
-pat yourself on the back for cheating so damn much
