Five minutes…

Five stars please try sleepy wave!

As someone who requires relaxing music for focus and sleep, I appreciate this so much! Thank you! Highly recommend this!

I would really like to be able to listen to this podcast without commercials, if I have to pay for it as long as it is reasonable, I will do that.

Sooooo annoying I don't even want to listen.

Helps me get into a relaxed state for sleep…only wish there were 10 hour loops!

I use this podcast every night to calm me down & help fall asleep 😊

DEP makes the most beautiful music. You can tell so much thought goes into each release. Perfect for meditation, relaxation or catching some zzzs. Love it!

As an intermittent subscriber through Bandcamp, I have enjoyed Jim Butler's music and appreciate his effort to make diverse new work. Having these podcasts offers another way to listen whenever I need atmospheric assistance. Free access to this music is a generous gift.

So thankful for a lovely way to get to sleep

If I want to listen to a podcast such as this I would like to be able to only hear calm tones. These ads throw the whole thing off.

I tried using this podcast to help me relax and go to sleep when my insomnia kicks in. I do find it relaxing, but what I don’t find relaxing is the ads at the very end. Ruined it for me

… I haven’t left a review yet. I use a different pod catcher because duh but Mr Butler has been an integral part of my relaxation. During times of extreme stress his mellow tones are a comfort as well as mundane sleepiness purposes. Have bought a few tunes off of bandcamp to support. If you need meditation or relaxation give this podcast a try. It’s free beautiful and mellow music you won’t find elsewhere.

Thank you for putting my racing mind to ease. I can now fall asleep quicker than ever, without all the noise in my head. Your creations are beautiful and soothing! 🥰

Thank you Jim for uninterrupted beauty, serene melodies and soothing sounds! Finally a perfect catalogue of great vibes to choose from...Kudos!!!💗🦋✌️

This podcast is really great for meditation. The length of the music is enough to get me through my daily session and there is a variety of episodes to choose from. However, my biggest gripe about the podcast is how LOUD the ads are! I also don’t care for the scary songs (Halloween, space). When I’m meditating or trying to sleep and the episode reaches the end, the next episode will start with a very loud ad and it literally scares me, my heart pounds out of my chest, wakes me up. Too many ads.

First of all, Jim is a genius. It has been since I was a freshman in high school when I started listening to Jim Butlers deep energy podcasts, so I couldn’t tell you exactly how I came across these, but I am so glad I did. I have used these podcasts for years to sleep and relax. My most favorite is a deep dark meditation, which I have been listening to from about the beginning for sleep and I will still listen to it now being a 24 year old mom if toddler who doesn’t sleep at all lol. A lot of the episodes bring me intense nostalgic feelings and take me to places of my past and of my dreams. I will listen nearly every night and will continue to listen nearly every night for as long as I can find these podcasts available❤️❤️ Jim, if you’re reading this I hope you know that your great work doesn’t go unnoticed, and means so much to a lot of folks.

How many commercials do you like in your meditation?

Hi my name is shreya l am 8.l love your music. But l wake up because of adds.

Some of them I don’t like but It helps me sleep its more of a 5 in a half

So many ads. I am 10 ( And yes, I meditate sounds weird right ) So because of pandemic I have to wake up earlier so I need more 💤 so I tried this🧘🏻‍♀️ to help, and was woken up every time. If you If you’re reading this (which you are) Try blissful meditation it works awesomely

I get having ads, but when they’re at the end (and the beginning), they will wake you up!!

You guys went nuts with the ads! Thanks for the music anyway.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I love the music! It puts me in a relaxed state and helps me fall asleep fast!!! It’s the ads I have a problem with... I’ve heard 5 loops of the same ad over, and over again. It sounds like a broken record and it’s very annoying!!!!!! You might as well play “the song that doesn’t end...”

It’s beautiful music, and I go to sleep fats because of it. But the greeting (many ads) and the end ( a ad that wakes you up) is bad! Getting greeted with a ad is not a good start. It’s a 2 stars! Have a good day! 🤗 (If you play Roblox follow me please, my account is NoodlezForLifez. 😅)

This podcast is the best by far to fall in deep sleep but it’s all for not when the ads Blast at the end, wakes me up from a deep sleep every time...

Love the music, super calming. It feels deep, serene , and beautiful. Like looking at the northern lights. But these super loud ads are awful! Loud! Annoying! Jarring! In your face! I don’t mind ads in general but this is so opposite to the feel of the music that it makes the experience unpleasant. Five star music, one star presentation

Works for me and I usually have trouble falling and staying asleep. Unfortunately the long and loud commercials at the beginning of the podcast wake me up if I've qued up a few of them. The first one I can handle because I just FFWD though it.

So many ads recently

Helps me unwind and have a relaxing sleep

Can you like make them longer so I can sleep though it all make it... 10 hours I’M SERIOUS

S

Love the podcast!

Love it! Relaxes me so I am able to fall asleep! Replaced sleep meds and no side effects! Listen to nightly for last couple of years !

I love this podcast! I’ve been listening 3-4x a week for about a year now. Congratulations on your retirement, and thank you for such great music!

I am smitten with this music. I especially love Cloudy Day. It is soothing and peaceful. Thank you so much. Glad I found this podcast.

Even if you did use this mediocre ambient music to fall asleep, you will be rudely awakened at the end by a car commercial!! Please!! Front load your obnoxious ads on a sleep app! Aaaargghh!!

i like listening to it to help me fall asleep, and it really works! Love it😍😍😍

LOVE how relaxed this music helps me feel after a long day at work. Thank you!

Love this podcast. Really enjoyed the bedtime story episode as well. Keep it up!

I love this podcast; it helps so much with sleeping! The music is really relaxing and good. New episodes also come out quickly and I love it. I set a sleep timer every night to listen to it. The only problem I have with this podcast are the ads!!! 😫 They drive me crazy and just when in about to fall asleep, the ads come on!!! Other than that, it’s a really good podcast

A great way to close my day with a warm mug of tea, scented candles, cozy blanket, and book

Thank you!

Thank you Jim Butler, your music is amazing and therapeutic. I set my sleep timer if I want to drift off into a peaceful sleep. Sometimes I listen at work to help me focus. Great for yoga too! So glad I found you :)

Why would they do this ? I know one thing, I’ll never buy Decoy wine again. Their ads are getting ridiculous. I hear them on almost every podcast. It’s almost like a cheesy personal injury lawyer ad. I was almost sound asleep and then had to listen to some jerk drone on about buying wine. Thanks ... not.

Good music for meditation but when I’m meditating with my kids they get distracted during the ads.

Would prefer if ads were located at end of pod etc as making this part of my sleep routine is impossible w ads at the end...could you guys do a non-ad version on patreon possibly?

He really has a great mix of different music to choose from. It’s not the same “raindrops” music played a hundred different ways. He does a good job of mixing it up. Some are going to be better for different activities than others, yoga, sleep, etc. I have listened to over a years worth of music and some are going to connect more with you than others. Don’t just listen to one to form an opinion.

I really love this podcast and the music but the ads just pop up out of nowhere. I wish you can just put in the end or lower the volume.
