New Running Music by Josh Kelley, Patti Smith, Kate Nash, and More

Hi BPM runners, cyclists, and other BPM exercisers!

Here's an update on the latest listings at JogTunes.com:

I'm grateful for Josh Kelley's new album, Special Company. It's got a bunch of BPM-walking and running tunes. I posted 4 great runnable tunes from the album. The BPM range is 142 to 175.

The iTunes Music Store is featuring an iTunes Originals album by Patti Smith. I found three songs from the collection for walking at 123 steps per minute and running at 160 and 175 BPM. The last two are actually two versions of "Midnight Rider."

Then there's the UK pop artist, Kate Nash. Great stuff! I posted three tunes, one at 169 and two at 181. They're fast and fun.

Rounding out the list are tunes by Taylor Swift, Bruce Springsteen, and Sparks. The Sparks' tune is "Progress" and it's Peter's Pick for this week. Peter reminds us that "Sparks were pioneers of the synth genre in the 70s and did albums at least through the 80s and 90s." See more of his commentary about Sparks on his website, It's #34 on his running tunes list.

I'm starting to collect tunes for The JogTunesIndie Podcast episode #17. Please look out for the show on 1/27.

Meanwhile, happy BPM running!

JogTunes Group Formed and Posts New Running Music and Podcast Episode

I'm happy to announce the formation of the The JogTunes Group, a DBA licensed by the State of Utah and operating under B & G Business Services LLC. The JTG is dedicated to providing resources for working out exactly to the tempos (BPMs) of great signed and indie artists' music. The flagship website is JogTunes.com which lists runnable songs and playlists by signed artists. Associated websites are JogTunesIndie.com, our primary site for our podcast, The JogTunesIndie Podcast, and our most recent JTG addition, BikeToTheBeat.com. The latter is designed for stationary cyclists who enjoy working out to music and pedaling to the beat.

I'm endeavoring to combine these sites into one site to allow more interaction and accessibility. I welcome your comments at comments@jogtunes.com.

I just added more tunes to our Tunes List. Jeff sent in a fine list of runnable songs, all BPM rated. From his list I picked Aerosmith's Pink and Some Unholy War by Amy Winehouse, both in the 170s BPM. Here's his personal website.

Susan's extensive BPM rated list provided me with 2 songs by Blues Traveler and 2 by John Mellencamp with BPMs ranging in the 150s to 180s. Susan's an active aquarunner. Here's her website.

I found KT Tunstall's new album Drastic Fantastic on the iTunes Music Store's new music list. You'll find 3 songs by her on our list. The BPMs are 122, 142, and 155.

Peter, our veteran contributor, pointed me to The Donnas' new album, Bitchin'. You can practically BPM-pace walk and run to the entire album. I selected 5 runnable songs ranging in BPMs from 143 to 170.

Another Peter's Pick on the list is *NSYNC's Bye, Bye, Bye. It runs at 173.

Thanks Jeff, Susan, and Peter, for your generous contributions.

I also just added the single, Radio Nowhere, from Bruce Springsteen's new album, Magic, coming out soon. The BPM is a leisurely 140.

I encourage you to go to Peter's great website for his fine list of running songs with BPM ratings and commentary.

My 13th episode of the JogTunesIndie Podcast is up for running. Please check it out at jogtunesindie.com.

Most of the songs are by artists who have been featured on the Association of Music Podcasting members' shows. Please see the above website for details.

It's my first 1 hour episode. It's divided into a 45 minute segment followed by a 15 minute segment.

It's also the first time that I invite stationary cyclists to try pedaling to the podcast songs. The more recent shows have walking tunes in addition to the running segments. This wider range of BPMs lends itself well to cycling. Please see more about cycling to the beat on BikeToTheBeat.com. Please note that I strongly discourage biking to music on the road. The risks are just too great. So please keep it "stationary."

I hope you enjoy the new additions, expanded podcast, and biking perspective. Meanwhile, happy music-paced running (and biking).

Dr. Bob

At jogtunes.com we posted new songs from a great article about running to music. It was published on line in Runner's World. Here's the article link. Almost all of the songs on the first page of the article are runnable. I haven't yet checked the BPMs of the songs on page 2. Thanks, Runner's World, for this great playlist. You can find our list of the songs on our home page. They're songs 2 through 11 in the preview list in the middle column.

JogTunes presents BikeToTheBeat.com and welcomes aquarunners

We just launched the beta version of BikeToTheBeat.com. Here's what Dr. Bob, our founder, has to say about our new site:

"Like running to the beat of my songs, I found that pedaling to the beat is also fun and motivating. I'm a big jazz fan so I started with some jazz tunes and then decided to use our entire signed artist, running music database as a resource for biking songs.

"I'm totally aware of the risk of wearing a headset and playing music while riding a bike in heavy traffic and even on country roads. That's why the new site addresses stationary cycling, kinetic training, and biking on rollers.

"The prepared playlists that we posted and will add in the future are sequenced for warm-up, full speed, and cool-down segments. The difference between the playlists for running and biking is the BPM range that are used for warming up and cooling down. I'm encouraging the playing of songs in the 90 to 100 BPM range to start and end the workout. This forces cyclists to set the gears (or resistance) higher and encourages more muscle toning. I expect visitors to the site will make there own varied playlists depending on their workout preferences. The possibilities are obviously limitless.

"Spinners will be looking for songs in with tempos equal to 180 to 200 pedal strokes (90 to 100 revolutions) per minute (equal to 180-200 BPMs). We have some songs on the site in the 180 to 190 range and will be adding up to 210 in the future."

We also would like to welcome aquarunners to jogtunes.com. We understand that they enjoy songs in the upper range of BPMs as well. So the addition of tunes in the 190-200 BPM range will address their needs as well.

New Running Music by Nirvana, Hedda Layne, Eminem, ZZ Top and More

Members of the Nike Forum thread called "What is your favorite POWER song?" consistently post great power songs. For runners who enjoy running to the exact tempos of their music we posted 2 runnable tunes from this thread that fit the running range of 140 to 190 BPM. Thanks, bribel, for Nirvana's Breed. It runs at 162 BPM. Thanks also to ready to rock for We're Not Gonna To Take It by Twisted Sister. It runs at 150. Our opinion is power-type songs don't have to be fast, just motivating. Apparently, these thread members agree.

Runner's World Discussion members also continue to post their favorite running songs and playlists. Here's the link for the latest entries. We posted 3 tunes that are in the BPM range for great running. One member, slammin, suggested the Nevermind album by Nirvana as a great source of running music. In addition to Breed (see above) we posted Stay Away from the same album. The BPM is 167. Member jwwade likes Lose Yourself from Eminem's 8 Mile soundtrack. It runs at an ideal 171. For flat out running at 182 BPM, run1119 offered Tusk by Fleetwood Mac. You've got to check that one out. A big thanks to the Runner's World members for their suggestions.

For fast walkers and runners who like warm-ups we added more tunes in the 120s BPM range. Hedda Layne and Troy Lee Warden are a husband and wife duo and label artists now living in Dallas. We present two of their latest, very impressive works that both walk at a vigorous 128 steps-per-minute.

Peter's Picks for this week are classics. How could you not enjoy running at 151 to Soul Doctor by Foreigner and at 158 to ZZ Top's Got Me Under Pressure. Please go to Peter's great website for more great BPM (and steps-per-minute) ratings and reviews of runnable tunes. Our thanks again go to Peter for his invaluable contributions.

We have two Peter's Picks for this week. They are Justin Timberlake's What Goes Around...Comes Around and Just Like Heaven by The Cure. They both run at 152 steps-per-minute. Please go to Peter's great website for more great BPM (and steps-per-minute) ratings and reviews of runnable tunes.

A New Playlist and New Running Music by N.E.R.D, Nirvana, T.I., The Smiths, and More

Music-paced runners are invitied to check out the new running music that we posted on our website jogTunes.com. Please go to the left column of home page - for more details about the sites and songs mentioned in this post.

Our newest contributor, Derek, from Charlottesville, VA, sent us his complete BPM-labeled list and pointed out some of his favorites. We include those favorites in our list this week. The artists are all new to JogTunes.com and include Mike Doughty, The B52s, The Smiths, and Johnny Cash. (Yes, Johnny Cash's song is our first country running tune but won't be our last).

For more runnable tunes we returned to the postings on the Nike Forum thread called "What is your favorite POWER song?" Some of the latest suggestions run within the JogTunes BPM range. We agree that they are indeed great power-type tunes. They include songs by Nirvana, N.E.R.D, and NOFX.

Peter's Pick of the Week is Will Smith's and DJ Jazzy Jeff's A Nightmare on My Street. Thanks again Peter and Derek for your continued, invaluable contributions to JogTunes.

Our new playlist is Born to Run and More. It's our first 1 hr runset. You can check it out here.

Those Canadian flag icons on our site are new and link to the songs in the Canadian iTunes Music Store. We have many Canadian visitors and welcome comments about our new links at comments@jogtunes.com.

We changed the search functionality so that visitors can search using multiple parameters. Just try searching on a genre and a BPM range and see what happens. Please tell us if you encounter any problems at comments@jogtunes.com.
