I'm serious! Everyone always asks why our dinner parties are more festive and it's the music! I HATE jazz BTW, and am probably one of the older responders on here.

I called in to Martha Stewart's xm radio show once to ask this very question. She didn't answer with the specificity I was looking for, but she did tell me there was Jay-Z on her iPod.

I've always had luck with down-tempo electronic music.... Think of Thievery Corporation as old school inspiration.... Plenty of newer stuff that's good as well.

We got a lot of compliments when we had the Motown station on pandora playing at our last dinner party.

At your dinner parties, do you typically serve Pizza Hut and Flavor Blasted Extreme Doritos?

Doesn't Pandora time out after a while? I think IHeartRadio plays continously. If you have cable, there's always the music choice channels.

Prefer no or very low music. Bkgd music makes it harder to hear convo.
And please no radio. You really want your guests to have to listen to radio commercials?

It's top 40, but a little on the lighter side. I love the radio - so much easier than compiling a play list.
Except when they play a song you absolutely loathe, or annoying ads blare on for 10 minutes.
Personally, I loathe most of the suggestions made on here. Jazz especially.
Me too. Swing? Yikes.
Well then, why not suggest something else?

I'm the 94.7 poster.
If ads are just a nonstarter for you, then I would do the cable channel with top 40. that has no ads.

Pandora is much better than regular radio, with much less annoying ads. Or no ads, if you buy premium.
I have Pandora too, but prefer the radio personally or I Heart Radio on my Roku. Despite picking my artists on Pandora, it seems to play lots of songs I hate and have to skip.
