Workout Mixtape 2015


Recommended Posts

Hey everyone. Now that the year is almost halfway through, I need an updated workout playlist of tunes from this year (or any time as long as I haven't heard it). Anything you can recommend?

 

I'm absolutely NOT a top 40 kind of guy, so if you heard it on the radio I probably won't like it (but I will give anything that comes recommended a fair shake). I also don't like commercial country, and have a general disdain for the genre as a whole, but again I'll give anything a shot. Most importantly, I just want something to pump me up and get me going. I'm also a big fan of listening to entire albums, so if you're the same way let me know which albums have been doing it for you.

 

Here are some of my mainstays from previous years (I hope spoiler tags work here):

Excellent cardio music. I listened to this track when I wanted to kick in at the end of a long exercise bike session.

 

Death Grips: https://youtu.be/HMVSQVn97es

I'd usually just listen to an entire album(s) when I was working out, but one track should get the point across.

This is an 'entering the gym' kind of track. The climax always has me jumping or fist pumping or moving somehow.

Some heavy metal for the workouts. I love this album but it's way too short for me. More like this would be awesome. Preferably instrumental, because metal vocals can be all over the place sometimes.

Flatbush Zombies: https://youtu.be/E4SpMx5R9JQ
I like my rap to be dark and intense (see Death Grips... it's kinda rap). Pissed off rappers tend to make better workout music, I've found.

Estradasphere: https://youtu.be/XVseOFDZBfU
Wildcard! Skip to about a minute in if you can't picture yourself getting pumped to this. I'm just throwing this in here to show you that nothing is too obtuse or ridiculous for me, so having some out there stuff is totally cool.
