5 strains perfect for listening to house music (and a playlist, too).
Oontz, oontz, oontz, oontz.
Summer is in full swing and there is an electric feeling in the air. We look forward to letting loose and enjoying a good beach party or a sweaty night of dancing with our loved ones (or alone in the living room).
Recently we’ve noticed the resurgence of house music into the mainstream and we couldn’t be happier to hear it. The high-energy genre makes us want to smoke strains that help us lose ourselves in the music and connect with the artists creating those pounding beats.
House music and weed go together
Chicago born and raised house music was created and developed by the black gay community in the late 1970s through the 1980s and beyond.

With everything 70’s themed currently back in vogue, it’s no wonder house music is having a moment in 2022. But the genre has always had a strong, loyal community and has influenced other music genres since its inception.
Along with five luscious strain suggestions, we’ve created a playlist of tracks by house genre legends like the “Godfather of House” himself, Frankie Knuckles. And of course we had to add a few notable names that have dipped their toe into the genre, like Beyoncé with her new track “Break My Soul.”
Whether you’re a longtime lover of house or just getting familiar with it, here you’ll find new tracks to love and play again and again. So check out the suggested strains, head to the pharmacy and tune in for two hours of house jams.
- Green crack
Green Crack is a classic, popular strain that many people are already familiar with. Aptly named for its highly energizing effects, it’s also known for being great for focus, making it easy to get in the mood and hit the dance floor.
She is the perfect invigorating strain for a daytime vibe or a late night out with friends.
- Sherbet Cookies
This is a hybrid strain known for its uplifting, euphoric, and energetic effects—the perfect combination to vibrate with a good playlist of energetic tunes.
House music will give you energy, and together with this strain, you’ll feel ready to tackle anything from that laundry pile to that three-day party.
- Durban Poison
Another popular strain for good reason, Durban Poison is a sativa with energetic, uplifting effects. It pairs well with any creative endeavor, from producing your own music to dancing. In any case, it’s just the right strain to express yourself with good beats.

- Golden Tangie
Another sativa-dominant strain, Golden Tangie, isn’t quite as energetic as the others on this list, but is still known for being invigorating and scores well for inducing euphoric feelings.
It’s perfect for people who want a moderate kick but also like to get into sounds and vibing at a more exhilarating level that may not include all the moves off the dance floor.
- Sundae Driver
Known for its calming, happy effects, hybrid strain Sundae Driver mixes things up a bit.
While house music is obviously great for parties, it’s also great for playing in the background while you tidy your house or turn your mood when the world is upset you.
Sundae Driver is a classic that can help you tap back into a higher vibration that matches the euphoric frequency of house.
