Researchers have shown that relaxing music before bedtime can make for a restful night. As a parent, I am so disappointed with what passes to be supposed baby sleep music. The sounds are usually cheap and sharp, loud and aggressive. Not to mention that it is grounded and cliche and I seriously can no longer listen to Twinkle Twinkle, Baby Einstein or any other standard, annoying noise.
I am a modern parent and I like listening to chill out music. Interestingly, so does my baby. Balearic and downtempo, gentle and soothing sounds work for all our family.
