What is your favorite music to listen to while homebrewing?

[ahaintern]

Hey homebrewers!
What kind of music inspires you to make a funky/tasty/interesting/delicious homebrew? 

[Slowbrew]

On my brew days I typically listen to Public Radio news shows.  Boring I know but it gives me the opportunity to find out what's going on in the world and get beer made at the same time.

I listen to brewing podcasts, Brewing Network, Beersmith, some local  podcasts like Seacoast Beverage Lab, etc.

I may have the TV on somedays depending on what's on, like sports or watching the Beerfest dvd...DASSSSSS BBBBOOOOOOOTTTTT!!!

i have a big mix playlist that continues to grow each brew day.

[In The Sand]

My brew partner makes us listen to 70s pop/rock. Usually something between Fleetwood Mac and Hall and Oates.

+1 but I always end out listening to some sort of jazz.

I listen to Pandora, usually set to singer/songwriter station and play along with my uke or guitar once everything is set during the mash, sparge and boil.

Same here.  I've spent most of my life playing and writing music.  Unfortunately, at this point when I listen to music is just reminds me of work....

Just what's in my head

[hoser]

Depends on how I feel/what I am brewing:

For IPAs and big aggressive beers:
Pantera, Pre-Black album Metallica, Alice In Chains, AC/DC, Danzig, etc.

If I am feeling more laid back and enjoying the process:
Jack Johnson, O.A.R, Pink Floyd, Pearl Jam, acoustic albums, Bob Marley

[Titanium Brewing]

Reggae

[erockrph]

I don't watch a heck of a lot of TV, so brewdays are frequently multitasking between brewing and cleaning out my DVR of stuff the wife won't watch with with me.

If I am listening to tunes, it's generally the less aggressive side of what I listen to. Either upbeat stoner rock (Fu Manchu, Kyuss, Clutch, etc.), southern sludge (Down, COC, BLS), or stuff like Witchcraft or the latest Opeth album. Basically bands from the last decade or two that sound like throwbacks to 70's hard rock.

All I listen too is the sound of my burners.  Actually they are so loud there's not much point in trying to listen to music.

[fmader]

Classic Rock....Pink Floyd, Led Zep, The Beatles, The Who......My classic rock has no boundaries...Pearl Jam, Metallica, Buddy Holly....It's all great!
