Rain sounds for sleeping
A forest roof, a still lake, a window beside your bed: rain brings a familiar rhythm to the night. Explore our rain sounds for sleeping and choose somewhere peaceful to settle.
Thunderstorm sounds
Soft, rolling thunder adds a little depth to steady rain. Find your favourite storm in our thunderstorm sounds guide, from Toronto windows to a quiet forest cabin.
White noise and brown noise for sleep
If a low, steady hum feels restful, board Cloud Nine Airways or slip beneath the sea aboard the Dreamdrift submarine. These deep soundscapes offer a softer alternative to a bright white-noise hiss.
Fireplace sounds
Let the gentle pop and hiss of a fire keep you company. Our Banff chalet fireplace pairs that cozy crackle with a soft mountain breeze, without music.
Relaxing spa music
Some evenings call for melody as well as water. The Moroccan hammam brings soft spa music and trickling water to a bath, a quiet stretch or your wind-down.
Baby sleep sounds
Pink noise is a soft, even “shhh” that many parents use for naps and bedtime. Keep the volume low and the speaker at least 2 metres (about 7 feet) from the crib, and always follow safe sleep guidelines.
How to use sleep sounds
Start low and choose a sound that feels comfortable, not distracting. Read our sleep tips for a calmer bedtime routine, and let Spotify play with your screen off.
Frequently asked questions
What are the best sleep sounds?
The best sleep sound is the one you find comfortable and calming. Try steady rain, a deep cabin hum, soft underwater sounds or a crackling fireplace, and keep the volume low.
Are sleep sounds free?
Yes. Zaytoon Sleep sounds are free to listen to on Spotify and YouTube. Optional paid plans and their features depend on the platform.
What's the difference between white noise and brown noise?
White noise is a bright, even hiss; brown noise is deeper and softer, like a low rumble. Choose whichever feels more restful to you.
What is pink noise?
Pink noise is a steady sound with more energy in the lower tones than white noise, so it sounds softer and deeper, a bit like steady rain or a gentle 'shhh'.
Can I listen to sleep sounds on Spotify?
Yes. Every episode is on the Zaytoon Sleep show on Spotify, so you can listen with your screen off.
