Nocturne has some music that might almost be relaxing except at some point you know the heavily processed guitars and/or synth lines are going to destroy that moment of near relaxation anyway, so there's no point in getting too settled. But that's exactly why I like it, it gets me going. Not quite like the Dead Kennedys which I listen to when I want to stomp someone's face or whatnot.

I usually listen to some form of ambient or more mellow trip-hop when I really want to just lay back and relax, if I listen to anything at all. Silence is the best means to relax for me. Total and utter silence. But I don't get that very often around my house so ambient/trip-hop usually does it for me.

Right now I'm feeling a little more.... bored of my mind. To assuage that boredome I'm trying to lose myself in the world of the Les Claypool Frog Brigade. It's not working out real well.
