Fanboys Anonymous

Have you ever felt like you needed to relax and just couldn't find that song that would help you do it? Apparently, you don't need to look any further, as a group of scientists have figured out how to make the most relaxing musical tune ever.

Marconi Union, a band of "sound therapists" are responsible for creating the song, which supposedly is even more effective at relaxing humans than things like massages, tea, bubble baths, etc.

It makes use of a 60 BPM structure that puts your brainwaves and heart rate in sync with the rhythm which is supported by low, underlying bass tones to help you slip into a deep, calm state.

I listened to this after having a headache and I have to say, it actually did take it away. Granted, that might be more of a placebo effect than anything else...or, hell, maybe the two Motrin that I took a few hours ago actually kicked in, but one way or another, I did enjoy listening to it and I figured that this was pretty interesting, so I think you should give it a shot.

You can listen to it via SoundCloud below:



What do you think? Did the song calm you down, or are there other songs that do it better for you?
