Meet John Watson, a.k.a. 'Sleep DJ'

Available for over a year

Most radio stations try to keep their listeners awake and interested but John Watson's online station in New Zealand has a totally different objective. Sleep Radio plays soothing ambient music 24 hours a day with the aim of helping listeners with insomnia to nod off. John Watson, also an insomniac, carefully selects all the tracks himself.
