At the mobile sauna yesterday, we had good effect with an international/reggae/African play list.  Nothing Ragga and Rough, but more ambient dub (King Tubby, Thievery Corporation) with a mix of African (Amadou & Mariam, Fela Kuti).  When at the sauna controls, choosing instrumental music, and (or music where one doesn’t understand the lyrics) seems to resonate like a cold water splash on sauna rocks.

Thanks to my brother, I have a waiver/disclaimer prohibiting top 40.
