What music do you do your cooking to?

[daveamkrayoguy]

Or in my case can’t get out of my head?

It looks like or sounds like all seven of these songs…

Do you have any particular favorites you play or hear when you’re busy in the kitchen?

cooking

I've been doing cooking to a lot of chill indie rock as of late. Same with eating.

 

[joeekaitis]

TV with the volume turned up a little

 

History Channel, Science Channel, Modern Marvels streaming channel, The Red Green Show streaming channel.

 

I think they call it "teleradio" when you're listening while doing something else.

 

Wish they had a MythBusters and Outrageous Acts of Science streaming channel.

We have a 24” flat screen TV on the kitchen counter and I watch/listen to various programs while I’m cooking depending upon my mood.

While I’m finishing getting dinner ready I usually watch KPIX news, which is the CBS station out of San Francisco. Lots of times I’m watching an old movie on TCM or a cooking show on PBS or the Food Network. We can also watch the TV from the dining room which is directly adjacent to the kitchen.

I’m spoiled having had a TV in the kitchen since we moved here over 30 years ago. Before I retired I always came home from work and began making dinner and having a TV in the kitchen allowed me to watch the news while I was making dinner and our lunches for the next work day.

My TV and stereo is on the opposite end of my house, but being wide open, you can see thru the kitchen ,the dining area to the living room TV that is always on. But mostly when cooking I just put Spotify 70's or 80' mix and crank my big Bose speakers.

I have a mix of my Pandora stations playing on my main computer.  I feed that through the whole house, I put a ceiling mounted recessed speaker in the kitchen. I change the mix seasonally if not sooner. Mostly a mix of vocals and instrumentals, modern takes on classics - I hate listening to oldies.  I call that "dinosaur rock" most of my family listens to stuff from the '70s & '80s.  I lived through that period, I have no desire to relisten to it.

I have a couple stations* set up on Pandora that I sometimes stream via Roku on the family room hifi, or many hours of downloaded material played via USB flash/thumb drive on the LG DVD (saves Internet bandwidth). But, not audible during (stovetop) cooking, the OTR micro-hood drowns out anything.

I have a Spotify playlist that's now almost 800 tracks long that I play while driving, cooking, etc.

Basically my own little radio station, specifically catered to my likes.

My apologies

Thank you, Glenn.

I'll be sure to include that going forward.

When I cook...

I usually listen to something that’s period correct for the machine that I’m using (unless it’s newer than the early 90’s; can’t stand newer “music”). I can only think of a couple of machines in my collection that fall into that age range anyway. Most of what I enjoy most is 60’s thru very early 90’s vintage, so rock, soul, disco, and nu-wave (80’s) are my primary go-to’s. Occasionally, I’ll throw in some classic country or some (VERY early) rap, but that’s about it. Usually, though, it’s either nu-wave (80’s) or disco. Sometimes, I use one of my vintage FM radios, but lately, I’ve been using my portable 8 track player to get the sound.
