Slow Tunes is my first album in many years.
Its about minimalistic synthesis which is supposed to put you into an relaxing state. First i used it for my self to fall asleep at night, the tones and harmonics distracted me so i would loose interest in deeper thoughts. It worked for me so it might work for others aswell and thats the sole reason behind Slow Tunes.
Each track repeats certain tones in an random order so you never know what to expect coming next and thats what distracts you. In my bedroom i have a small speaker set with a subwoofer, i never listen to it at high volume but at very low volume, just enough so i can hear all harmonics, and low enough so i can shut it out.
The album can also be used for quiet passages in movies or other visual stuff which needs a calm background.
Been wondering what behavior it would have on babies, but it might be an idea to try out if one should need a helping hand keeping babies calm. Just remember, small speakers can only reproduce the high harmonics and hearing the high harmonics only will be annoying, it needs to be a speaker set which covers the low-middle and highs evenly.
My speaker system in the bedroom is very like this type of speaker set:
