low marimba
with bass boost/treble reduction is even better
Crashing waves at the beach. Seagulls are little assholes but they add to the effect for me
Even assholes have their place and used
Locally, indoors? Silence.
I like to be able to hear whatever is going on outside. Ideally, that would also be silence, but if something is going on outside, I like to be alert and aware of it.
I’ll also take a little rain and occasional thunder outside, as usually people aren’t acting a fool outside during rainy weather.

Was so happy they brought those back for BoBF
I can’t decide, there are too many:
Mongolian throat singing with little to no instruments.
The sound of a plane cabin (I think its brown or pink noise)
The fire crackling of a fire place or furnace.
Ocean waves or waterfall or river noise.
Slowly and softly played piano.
A stew slowly cooking.
Sound of gentle brushing your head hair.
You win
I feel like the plane cabin one is more green noise
Stew cooking one is great, check out magma too
Train whistle in the distance. Light rain and thunder.
The sound of rain on a tent mixed with a crackling fire, very relaxing.
Train whistle and the sound of the train rumbling by in the distance is deeply relaxing, doubly so if after nightfall or if I’m drifting off to sleep.
I don’t know about most, but generally those “background sound” sort of ambient things are pretty relaxing.
goes looking on YouTube for some examples

I think that the shakuhachi, a Japanese bamboo flute, is relaxing to listen to.

White noise of a fan. I always have one on when sleeping so hearing that sound reminds me of a cozy nap.
Rain outside my window in the garden. Maybe not the MOST, but it’s up there.
Moderate rain and distant thunder.
The sound of snow.
The save room music in resident evil 4.
Jokes aside my most relaxing sound is heavy rain on a tin roof. Followed by cats purring.
thats hard but my top three is a light rain storm so just a bit of far away thunder, waves, and campfire. I have found some recordings of a compfire on a beach in a rainstorm and its just the best.
