Colma is great. I also would suggest The Dissociatives (which is only kinda relaxing I guess) but also Zog Bogbean, which was John Wozniak's project before he formed Marcy Playground. It's mostly mellow, folky stuff. Also, the first Marcy Playground cd.

I almost always listen to Jazz when I work. The Bad Plus is a good place to start.

Most of Mark Knopfler's solo albums are fairly relaxing (Sailing to Philidelphia probably being the exception). I'd recommend Golden Heart and Kill To Get Crimson.

To me Mezzanine is not a very relaxing album as it's quite dark and brooding. Great album though.

Looks like we're not going down after all, so nevermind.

What I really want are mp3's of those soothing nature sounds (ocean waves, docks, bubbling brook, etc). Surprisingly hard to find online, for free anyway.
