Though it doesn’t get as much play as the dance floor, gym or car, the kitchen—that laidback, generative heart of all homes—is easily one of the best places to listen to music. Crossing styles and eras but keeping the mood steady and upbeat, here’s a playlist of fun-for-all tracks to keep you company while cooking, whether on a Tuesday or a holiday, alone or with family and friends. Pour a glass, tie on the apron and get at it. We update picks here regularly, so if you hear something you like, add it to your library.

LA-based duo Magdalena Bay’s kaleidoscopic sound—a mix of soft-focus pop hooks and sleek electronic production from all across the musical map—looks as much to the future as it does the warm nostalgia of the past. Formed by high school friends and now life partners Mica Tenenbaum and Matthew Lewin, the group weaves elements of ’70s disco, ’80s pop rock and synth-pop, ’90s dance, a little new jack swing, and modern house and techno with lyrics that are playful, personal and introspective. On the chill “Image”, Tenenbaum considers a life deeply altered by tech, and over a low-slung beat on “Chaeri”, she pleads with a struggling friend. Yet it’s on the more romantic tracks (“Fear, Sex”, “Death & Romance” “Killshot”) where the pair find their sweet spot, allowing the highs and lows of relationships to play out on the dance floor in splendidly stylish fashion.
