What a crazy question.
There is this 33 volume thick series where last 20 volumes are spent on tea parties. In the series there is an instrument modeled after bandura called harspiel that is often played on those tea parties.
I have made a 2h+ bandura music compliation just to immerese myself more into the world of those tea parties.
The series is called Ascendance of a Bookworm and there is whole instance dedicated to it.
What a crazy coincidence haha. I’ll check her out
Flight of the Conchords. “There ain’t no party like Nana’s tea parties!”
Nujabe
When I have company I tend to play the Planet Coaster and Planet Zoo soundtracks or maybe Of Monsters And Men
I’m a big fan of Enya.
Some of the lower-tempo tracks from Stardew Valley, like ‘Cloud Country’ or ‘Wild Horseradish Jam’.
I don’t know what kind of tea parties you “throw”, so to say. But here is a suggestion: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eELH0ivexKA
If not this, some Erik Satie maybe?
Saties good for everything haha
Well, he wouldn’t be my first choice for stealing a car… but he is close.
You could try the classic Cat Stevens album Tea for the Tillerman
Muzak.
We were just talking about Satie (furniture muzak) :D
Have you tried death metal? 😅
Mark Sherman plays some great vibes charts. Interplay is great background music for a gathering.
