A downward progression towards sleep states.

We are proud to present to you the first chapter of a collection of soft, soothing, sleep-friendly tracks from IooN Cosmic Downtempo overnight ambient performance Trip While You Sleep.

Since the beginning of Trip While You Sleep, we are making our best to subtract the blues from our playing, slowing down chord progression or removing them entirely, to achieve the sensation of a deep, suspended continuous tone which lays a solid foundation for decorative elements, sometimes resembling detailed natural ambiences,
sometimes synthesized and deliberately out of focus.

We wanted to get rid of the traditional new-age instrumentation as well, by replacing what would have been pianos, windchimes and guitars with decontextualized sound elements used with the same purpose.

The sound is soft and quite dull on purpose as more high frequencies content and more loudness would prevent the onset of the hypnagogic states this release is all about.
You can easily adjust your favorite volume level with the first track, also with headphones.


"The idea behind Trip While You Sleep is to tailor a unique fine aural thread between different states of mind.
This music helps to intensify the inner focus, by acting as a lens on the audience subtle mental pre-sleep imagery;
On one hand active meditative states such as the commonly referred “trance induction” which is one of the most significant effects of modern, electronic music and more ancient, tribal gatherings.
On the other hand more quiet, introspective meditative states, which often occur spontaneously in moments that see the conscious part of the mind drifting off, be it a guided meditation or a state where the mind and the body are about to rest, referred as hypnagogic states."
