Great idea. Aphex Twin's "Ventolin" or something by Merzbow would be even more effective!

Which thing? "Ventolin" is way worse than most Merzbow.

however, if i'm allowed the luxury of sleeping in and waking up on my own and puttering around for a few hours, certain artists/albums are very morning to me. joni mitchell. patrick wolf. electrelane. sufjan stevens. "pet sounds", for some reason, has always been a morning album to me. so has the dismemberment plan's "emergency and i", though now that can be a night time album for me as well. yo la tengo's "and then nothing turned itself inside out". bowie's "hunky dory", elliott smith's earlier albums are very winter mornings to me. and so on.

I love how sleaze is distinguished from the merely sleazy, i.e. The Skatt Bros. magisterial "Walk The Night" (and, one presumes, The Village People's Live and Sleazy).
I made myself a morning music/sleaze CD. Here's the tracklisting:
Bucks Fizz - I Hear Talk 4:37Chris Rea - I Can Hear (Your Heartbeat) 5:26Detroit Emeralds - Feel The Need In Me 3:43 Patti Jo - Make Me Believe In You 6:16 Buddy Miles - Pull Yourself Together 4:21 Bionic Boogie - Hot Butterfly 5:21Lamont Dozier - Take Off Your Make Up 4:48 Johnny Bristol - Take Me Down 5:08Stevie B - Midnight Music 6:47Miquel Brown - Close to Perfection 3:55Novecento - Movin' On 3:44 Gazebo - I Like Chopin 4:05RAF - Self Control 2:50 Savage - Don't Cry Tonight 6:43 Any Trouble - Touch and Go 4:36 Rose Laurens - American Love 6:48

ten years ago or so a friend told me Keith Jarrett was great morning music and that's been true for me - played some very early Bill Evans this morning and that worked nicely, too, I feel like piano music is great in the morning, and so's a lot of late 70s soul - Rufus, for example. But today Nurse With Wound's Man With the Woman Face is kinda perfect too. This thread has been asleep for ten years; what do people like in the morning these days?

I've always felt the title track of Astral Weeks sounds best in the morning, when you're alone and everyone else is still asleep.

I still think a lot of the music that most people think of as morning music is like having chloroform held over one's face. I need encouragement to wake up, not something that will put me back under or keep me suspended in an in-between state.

my default appearance is somewhere between awake and half asleep
state of mind is kind of a dreamy state, like watching everything go by fast and just zeroing in on the details every so often
