music to get into state

[mccordia]

Anyone know of any waterproof (just for swimming) cases for the cheaper MP3 players (the clunky ones, shaped like a big USB stick). I used to own an Ipod shuffle, but it turned out to have issues with my washingmachine. Now I have a cheaper MP3 player that only costs me 7 euros to replace if it dies again

That aside.. Some other music in the same Genre/mood you might want to check out

Sigur Rós Nice slow moody music. The combined use of an electrical Guitar and bo (normaly used to play string instruments like violins etc) and (sometimes made up) lyrics is haunting. Really liking them (and seeing them live in November)

For a sample, check: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWR-jJ3v1pk"]YouTube - Sigur Rós - Svefn g englar[/ame]

Amon Tobin Wonderfull relaxed music. A bit like CBL, but much more melodic. I used his music as a soundtrack for the beginning of this video Team Fly Like Brick - Wingsuit Flight, Coaching and Instruction (minus the Reagon Speech, thats my own little thing I mixed in).

Solaris - Cliff Martinez (sountrack) A bit repetitive in its used theme, but also wonderfull relaxed music without sudden shouts/noises etc. to clear your mind, relax and get your heartrate down.

General Midi Check out tracks like 'The Eastoner'

Jose Gonzales Great relaxed music. Mostly known through the track Heartbeats used in a Sony Brave commercial, but the whole album rocks. Elliott Smith is also worth checking out (Same genre singer/songwriter..)

UNKLE Some great tracks. A bit heavy. More suitable for driving. Check here for a sample track (Reign) I used for a video
(again..different sport..sorry about that one) Team Fly Like Brick - Wingsuit Flight, Coaching and Instruction

On the H2OAudio sight they have the arm bands that can be extended to a belt. They are non specific cases that any mp3 player can go into. From what I can tell, the hard plastic door hold the connection for the headphones and there is probably a pigtail inside the case to plug the mp3 player into.

This one really gets me thinking before a dive - good ol Campfire song.
