It's about an hour long and I'll listen to it on repeat a lot c: I find it's always difficult to find really good anti-stress music but this works for me at least

This song does it for me.

I relax on the few last Leonard Cohen albums.
My spouse says, they are too depressing.
But they calm me down.

Emancipator: Minor Cause

Reset by mutemath and almost anything John Mayer works for me. Gravity by John Mayer is my favorite though. I can listen to it for hours on end lol.

most people wouldn't recognize this as music, but the sound of the surf. life, up close and personal.

Mainly when I was younger, I found death metal to be quite soothing. The reason being that it actually helped me "release" stress. I find much so called "relaxing" music to be a contrivance, but hey, that's just me.

Nowadays, I prefer silence over most music to relax to. After awhile, it all gets to be a bit contrived. I think this is why older people (often) lose interest in it.

if one can't go to the beach, a good sub for me at least is to go inside a large building into an empty large conference room, therein one can be surrounded by ambient large facility air handler noise [aka "brown" noise] which is very soothing and masking of other sounds.

1950s Rock and Roll does it for me.

The Kinks have a very calming effect on me.

And You And I - Yes.
as well as Thick As A Brick and Suppers Ready.

Personally, I find screamo music calming.

Most generic 'calming' music really annoys me for some reason.
Especially if it's that tinkly piano music.
Blech.

Listen to this and paint your house - it de-stressed me
