Hi guys, I could do with some suggestions for some cardio workout music, my current collection is getting a little stale for me.

Thanks,

Matt

One of my favorite albums to listen to while cycling is LCD Soundsystem's 45:33.

Just about anything by Paul Oakenfold.

I'm a fan of the LCD Soundsystem as well.
Depends on what you're looking for.
If you're into techno/house/trance, maybe check out Armin Van Buuren's podcast "A State of Trance".

Or possibly Thievery Corporation. Or DJ Shadow if you dig trip-hop.

Tokyo Police Club has a couple decent tracks. I'm a fan of "Box" off of the Smith EP

Anberlin has good stuff too. Adelaide and Godspeed off the newer album.

Kings of Leon - Taper Jean Girl or Aha Shake

Anything by Linkin Park if you like their stuff.

The new Coheed and Cambria album No World For Tomorrow has good tracks.

Vendetta Red's album Between The Never and The Now

Red Hot Chili Peppers are always appropriate. Always.

Or if you're into electronica, The Postal Service has one album out. And it's fantastic

It really depends on your taste in music. I could lay out tons more stuff for you to try. I see too much music as it is because I work at my school's radio station. I can barely say that I like one thing more than anything else.

Nice suggestions, I'm going to give those a try, any more are appreciated.

Cheers!

"Bombs Over Baghdad (B.O.B.)" - OutKast

Matt Taylor.
I just realized.

You have the same name as the bassist from Motion City Soundtrack.

Another good band to try. The new album is awesome, but if you want cardio tracks, listen to their album I Am The Movie.

jap pop, like shonen knife.
the breeders - 'last splash'
the wannadies - self-titled record
tribe called quest, outkast, the roots, n.e.r.d., common, gnarls barkley
spoon
james brown, al green, sly and the family stone, jackson 5

i have weird tastes.

Eclectic tastes Bean...I can relate

lol @ a tribe called quest.
Hello stuffwhitepeoplelike.com

And it's true.
I love me a little "a tribe called quest"

Oh and bean
speaking of jap pop.
Have you ever heard of Ellegarden?

I must be a freak but music just fades away after the first 5 minutes of cardio for me since, by then, I'm usually just praying for God to end the agony that is machine assisted cardio.

That being said if I actually bother with music, my first 5 minutes I like to listen to a lot of underground hip hop or break beats since I used to breakdance when I was younger, lighter and more flexible heh. Old school stuff though, Rocksteady Crew or whatever.

My last run that I actually brought my Zune on (yes I have a Zune, Zune Pass > all) I picked a random album without looking and hit play when the treadmill got up to speed and it turned out to be the Grease soundtrack. Running and broadway go together like rama lama lama ka ding a de ding a dong.

Also:


Not just white people like Tribe, some of us yellow folk like them too.

Anything 80's will do it for me.

never heard of ellegarden. i don't really seek out music anymore, just usually accidentally discover it because of my annoying scenester friends. there was this old compilation called Moshi Moshi, an international pop compilation, it has a bunch of jappop that really gets me into a sort of panic attack adrenaline mode (sort of like listening to techno or creepier radiohead songs).

speaking of, idioteque is a good workout song.

i question if ATCQ is limited to any race.

I love some of the faster paced Imogen Heap stuff

the Go! Team REAAAAALLY gets me going on an otherwise bitterly hated treadmill

I have a preference for techno, especaillt when it has a good beat and there's a lot of rhythm.
Dimrain47 is an artist I found on Newgrounds that has awesome techno:

I think "Surface" is his best

I think any music from New Order works.
On the indie rock side... The King Left album "New York Nothing" is always on when I am at the gym as of late and also Brandtson's album "Hello Control."
Justice
Andrew WK
Daft Punk
They all work!

CAKE - their beats are awesome for workouts (and driving hellaciously fast on interstates. )

I don't think tribe is limited.

But I do think white people can be.
A Tribe Called Quest is "branching out" for some white people.

Cake, absolutely, best cardio music ever

Matt Pond Pa - Several Arrows later is an awesome album.

Mastodon - Leviathan gets me pumped up when I'm digging some heavy music.

Infected Mushroom if I'm looking for electro/dance

m1dy is great for a pump up if you can tolerate gabber, which is the weirdest style of music to exist (I think)

finally a friend of mine got me listening to Pendulum which is really awesome drum and bass.

This may not be to everyone's taste, but try "Evil German Techno" by KMFDM. I think they worked with Rammstein on this.
If anything, it's probably a nice change from the other music you have.
It's intense. :P



Oh, and I agree that Cake is awesome too.

The best cardio music -
Go to itunes and download the PODRUNNER audio podcast. It's free!!!

System of a Down does it for me. Lupe Fiasco's "Go Baby" is okay, too.

Rocky soundtrack!!

Sometimes it is good to have some angry music too like Linkin Park, Slipknot, or system of a down (Good shout Tiffany). Gets the juices flowing!

Love BYOB!

I listen to R&B and hip hop mostly. Getting that dancehall mix


But....


Coldplay's new "viva la vida"

or

Nomak "Calm" - combination of melodies

I listen to bluegrass music when I run. I'm sure I am the only person who does this.

natasha bedingfield has some good uplifting songs=)

too girly?

idk

Nothing beats running to a good 80s power ballad.
