90 minutes of slow sarangi and bansuri (Indian flute) over a soft tanpura, for sleep. No drums, no vocals, no sharp sounds, only sustained notes and a soft drone.
In this video: 16 pieces in 6 ragas (Raga Kirwani, Raga Durga, Raga Jog, Raga Bageshri, Raga Todi and Raga Bhairav), about 43 minutes before they come round again.

About the music
Every piece is a slow alaap: the raga opens note by note, with no beat, over an unbroken tanpura drone. The pieces are matched in loudness and joined with slow crossfades, so the level stays even from the first minute to the last.
Best for
Falling asleep with the lights low
Winding down in the hour before bed
Quiet background for a bedroom
Slow evening stretching
Softening the sounds of a busy street at night
How to use
Set the volume just above silence and let it play through the night. The music stays level from start to end, so there is nothing to wake you.
New music every evening at 6 pm New York time. Find more in the playlist "Bansuri for Sleep".
