5-9-78 and Echus too, they're always a great listen before sleeping!

Everytime, one of the most beautifully composed tracks I have ever heard. Soul food

For me it's definitely Amo Bishop Roden

Satellite Anthem Icarus and Peacock Tail, for me.

5-9-78
Tears From the Compound Eye

Incidentally all 3 are amongst my top BoC tracks ever.

EYDIAB, Kid for Today, Left Side Drive, Olson, Wildlife Analysis...those immediately come to mind.

Some others for me are definitely the middle of The Beach at Redpoint with all the ping ponging voices leading into Opening the Mouth.

One in particular, that might not be mentioned is from 1:45 to the end of Transmisiones Ferox. That's up there in my favorite moments from them.

Olson, In A Beautiful Place Out In The Country, Tears From The Compound Eye, Sattelite Anthem Icarus, Over The Horizon Radar, Echus.

I always listen to them in this exact order, so calm.

Polar opposite to "One Very Important Thought", which has this haunting, "impending doom" quality to it, especially at the chord change around "if you could be told..." in conjunction with its message.

2nd place would go to Julie and Candy (which happens to be my favorite BoC track ever), just because it feels like it comes from a place where everything makes sense and everything is alright...everything just comes together. It flows like a river and gives off a feeling like time has almost stopped and you're just there in the moment. OtM takes this to 11. It kinda reminds me of Zelda: Majora's Mask, when you play the song of time and go back to the dawn of the first day.

3rd place is maybe You Could Feel The Sky, because of the percussion mostly and the main drone-ish atmosphere, that or maybe Everything You Do is A Balloon, for its melody.

Opening the Mouth does quite the opposite to me. Indeed, I actually find it frightening. Some tracks that I do consider to be very relaxing are Muhkinabaht (which I once almost fell into a trance-like state with) and most of the tracks on TCH, especially Dayvan Cowboy (which I often use to fall asleep to).

The beginning of EYDIAB is very calming. Of course after a minute and a half or so it becomes terrifying (especially in tandem with that fan-made gorilla mask vid)...

MHTRTC's first two tracks. Then Over the Horizon Radar.
