Sleep - Fall Asleep Easily and Naturally
David Ison
2009

An acclaimed sound healing engineer and meditation teacher, David Ison's music consists of haunting chimes and drifting, breathing synth chords that always seem about to tumble over into some musical jam or waterfall, but they never quite do. That sense of hovering always on a magnificent precipice is important to the sound of Sleep and Ison has crafted a record that delivers just what it promises: a soothing 50-minute instrumental-ambient track that's ideal for infants, adult power naps, long-term hibernation, or ferrying your stressed-out soul across the valley of tossing and turning and into the quiet, majestic halls of deep, relaxing, calming sleep. The sense of anticipation in this case works magic, tricking the brain into falling into a profound state of relaxation.

Ison's music drifts along through a dreamlike landscape complete with cascading water and various moments of chanting, calling birds, and the warm salty spray of dreaming high above the clouds like a poet half-asleep in his brooding cave. Beautiful melodies come and go within the white noise-style mélange of soothing sounds. Nothing comes suddenly out of the blue to break the spell; it's all perfectly mixed and sequenced to unbuckle you from the seatbelt of consciousness's speeding car, and quietly lift you up, out, and over into the realms of deep surrender and finally into total quiet unconsciousness.

Tested at the National Institute of Health and with the US military in Iraq (to help troops sleep more soundly), Ison's method has proven itself in the field, and at 50 minutes it's just long enough that you're bound to never get to learn how it ends. Put it on at the end of the day while brushing your teeth and getting ready for bed, and allow Sleep to work its powerful magic as you sink into your covers and release the day. The warm, pleasant music gently blocks disrupting ambient noise like car horns, neighbors' stereos, conversations in the other room, and (if it's daytime) power mowers, so that you can surrender to the sandman. Sleep has a distinct goal in mind, and using an array of sound healing techniques inside its warm glowing rush of sound, Ison's CD realizes that goal beautifully, using its peaceful arsenal to soothe frazzled nerves and bring rest to tired brows.
