Weightless

According to unidentified studies (apparently from the British Academy of Sound Therapy), Weightless, by the band Marconi Union, is said to be the most relaxing song ever made, capable of reducing anxiety and heart rate.

On the listener's side, it's a cross between early Eno and old-school Pink Floyd. However, it appears the Manchester band worked with therapists to produce it. Details in this Daily Mail article.

In the meantime, listen to it (but I recommend getting the original, rather than relying on the compressed 10-hour version on YouTube).
