Music for Spinning: My recommendations

Music for Spinning: My recommendations

During Winter we usually have to do spinning or spend some time on our Tacx to be able to maintain our condition during cold times. Of course you can always use some mixes that you can find on internet but what about making your own playlist? I give you some songs that you could include.

1. Alexis Jordan - Hapiness

It's always good to start your training with some feel good music to start with good motivating. I guess there are not many better examples then this one. Optimistic lyrics and an upbeat tempo should give you a good start.

 

2. Duke Dumont ft. A*M*E - Need U (100 %)

Now that we started our session with a good mood, we continue on a higher tempo with Duke Dumont. He's an artist that I can recommend you in general for spinning sessions. 

3. Evanescence - Bring me to live

Time to include some guitars. This song should definitly make you pushing harder. In The End by Linkin Park could also be an alternative. 

4. Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Heads will rol (A-Trak remix)

Problably this is the song with the highest Beats per Minute that I can find and that is still pleasable to listen. This should also make your cadans rise one more time

5. Stardust - Music sounds better

It's time to slow down a bit now after the intensive build up you had. But not too much yet. This song has a slower tempo but not too slow yet. An alternative could be 'Lady, hear me tonight' by Modjo.

6. Triggerfinger - I follow rivers

 

It's time to switch to the guitars again, but this time we're not using the electric guitars of Evanescence anymore. We're going acoustic right now. This song could remind you of a nice ride on sunny day in Spring.

7. Lily Allen - Smile

Now, we're going for a complete cool down with 'Smile' by Lily Allen. It's a song that everyone likes to hear on a calm Sunday morning, problably the moment that most people make a bike ride. 

The end

This is a list of songs that you can listen for a session of about 30 mins. I've builded it up according to BMP, the tone of the music and the lyrics of the song. You can also replace some songs by alternatives that I wrote down or by other songs that you like with a similar BPM. Enjoy!
