What music do you listen to while brewing?

Buddy, SRV, Muddy, any of the Kings, Copeland, Cray, Collins, etc...

In short, the blues.

I just saw Honeyboy Edwards last week. The dude is 94 years old but the man can still play and sing.

Rush Limbaugh, so I don't forget to sanitize ( use Oxy....get it?)
Music?
Locksley
Motley Crue
Beatles/Stones/Dave Clark 5
Rev Horton Heat
Various....on Grooveshark.com

A bunch of stuff. Mostly 80s. And it has to have a lot of AC/DC.

IF you jam while brewing?

I survive off Pandora.com and punch in Gov't Mule which makes for a real bluesy/jam band station that carries me through my brew day!

Well, I guess I'm just a stick-in-the-mud! On brew days I usually plug my iPhone into my computer speakers and open up my "Stitcher Radio" application and listen to the Rush Limbaugh podcast. He keeps me both pissed off and laughing for a solid three hours.

I like rocking some old soul/R&B while I brew. Not really sure why...although my brewing buddy, who doesn't even like soul, now requests stuff like Sam Cooke while the boil commences.

gotta give a +1 on that! Love my RnB. Generally though it's whatever im in the mood for at that day. I'm a professional musician, so sometimes it's "work" related listening (ie the score for the next musical im playing in, or a style im going to be working with for a while).

Alot of the time it's Funk, Afrobeat, reggae and jazz. I have a 1000GB hard drive full of music stuff. Generally gets a workout on brew days.

i alway put in a "OAR" dvd. it's a nice mellow tone great for brewing.
example

I'm with Chad: Dexter Gordon, John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Thelonius Monk...

Last brew day was The Mission by Ennio Morricone. Previous to that was The World's Greatest Classical Album - Ever, and previous to that was Pink Floyd's Pulse. I have no idea what I'll be listening to the next time, but it had better be good

Blues...BB King, Waterwelon Slim,Eric Clapton,Joe Beard,Albert, King.......

Hells Bells must have been on 4 times atleast. Damn good song.

German Schlager music.

Flogging Molly if I'm brewing anything Irish.

mid day weekend N.P.R. is always the fallback

While I've only made two batch's now, I've gone towards listening to dvd's of bands I've filmed. Melvins, Meat Puppets, big Business, Monotonix.....and on and on. A good heavy groove get's me through a few hot hours in the kitchen.

Smog, Bonnie Prince Billy, Songs:Ohia. Anything similar.

Just started brewing, as a matter of fact I just did my first batch yesterday, but I was listening to The Avett Brothers and plan to listen to them on all of my brew days.

I just pop Staind into pandora and let it go.

Definitely Flogging Molly!!! Nothing says beer like a bunch of drunk irishmen rockin out!!!

lol, must be a common theme. I hadn't even read this thread yet, but on my first batch I had pandora set to flogging molly and music like it.

I prefer some good ol Drum & Bass, but if my wife is helping we usually listen to Neal Young or the Dead.

Here is some more Warren Haynes! Watch from the about the 6:25 mark to about the 7:40 mark - this stuff makes my wort boil if you know what I mean - even Dave turns to his drummer in amazement at about 7:40

To top it off it's live in central park imagine that scene

I was at this show...great time.

I almost exclusively listen to the dead, or an off shoot from them. sometimes some phish, and on occasion some miles or trane.

I listen to Sirius Alt Nation, Jam On, The Joint as well as various Pandora stations. Been listening to Yeasayer, Hot Chip, Spoon, and Vampire Weekend a lot lately.

Pearl Jam, Smashing Punks., anything Chris Cornell, etc.

Next batch willl probably consist of mainly clutch.

Mozart so that my beer can join Mensa when it's aged.

Anything from Dave Matthews Band to Tool to Bullet For My Valentine, it's all good!

I prefer sublime or marley, but Im down with them southern blues too.
