Let's Cook: Mental As Anything

All-time favorite cooking album is Miles Davis Pangea. When cooking is going well it feels just like that music.

Stereolab was once described to me as "music for hipsters to put on in the background while they cook."

So there's that.

And it's Agharta for my money.

Get your Northern Soul out, you get to groove around the kitchen and pretend to be a beautiful person in an advert for chicken curry.

Never occurred to me to do Agharta/Pangea but I think I'll try it! I love both of those albums.

Also, along these lines Ornette Coleman's Dancing in Your Head.

I usually listen to the news on NPR if it's the afternoon, but I also like something I can sing/howl along with like the Smiths' "Singles" or Buzzcocks "Operators Manual."

'60-'63 Trane. I pretty much always put this on when cooking.

In general:

late Trane = MDMA music
80s hip-hop/punk = drinking music
news/traffic radio = shower noise
indie pop & new-to-me tunes = driving to work music
ambient = coding music
All Things Considered = exhausted, driving home from work listening

ambient stuff is good for chopping and mashing. you don't want any bm or thrash or hip hop, the sped up beats could make you chop off your fingers due to unrestrained headbanging or bopping of your heads to the phat beats yo!
