Mo  McMorrow
Mo McMorrow

This month, serendipity reigns. While I was attending a Hedda Layne gig at the Belmont in Austin, Texas, Mo McMorrow was sitting at my table. It didn't take long to find out that she's a singer songwriter and well known on the Austin scene. I checked her tunes out on MySpace. They turned out to be great music by an impressive artist, and a perfect beat-matching runset. So here's a sequenced set of Mo's tunes with a taste of my other favorite Austin artists, Hedda Layne and Brett Low.

This is another interval running session. After some warming up and easy running, Mo's fast tune, "God Knows," will provide the interval 193 BPM, 90-second speed bursts. These will alternate with fast walks that can also be jogged slowly. A full length, uninterrupted version of "God Knows" appears at the end of the show. If you're not in shape for interval workouts, run these segments at a slower pace or shorten your stride. The most important thing is to run safe.

Check out the track details, purchase options, and more info on this episode on the episode page on JogTunes.com.

Also, please note that the workout session is approximately 40 minutes. The total episode time is 51 minutes due to the addition of full length versions of segmented and voiced-over tracks.

As always, I welcome your comments. Please send them to comments at jogtunes.com, post them on our JogTunes.com facebook fan page, or send me a tweet.

At JogTunes.com, you'll find purchase links to all of the tunes from all of our podcast episodes as well as over 1800 BPM rated workout music from label and indie artists.

Thanks for working out with me and enjoy the music!

New Episode of the JogTunes Indie Podcast - Great Music Projects


Alice  ProjectDouble6project


This episode breaks with my short and sweet midmonth format by presenting another classic JTIP 2 segment session. This is 28 minutes of sequenced BPM running followed by a 17 min sprint section. I've got 2 veteran JogTunes artists and 5 new groups. There's great rock, reggae, world, and loads of awesome electronica.

The sprint session maxes out at 182 BPM. If you're not used to beat-matching that tempo, slow your pace or shorten your stride. If you have a pulse monitor, this is a good time to use it. The main thing is to run safe.

Check out the track details, purchase options, and more info on the episode's JogTunes page.

You can always shorten your stride or run slower. The key is to run safe. Interval running is not for the faint of heart. Please be sure you're fit for this workout. If you have any doubts you still can enjoy this runset buy taking the intervals at a slower pace and/or by shortening your stride.

Maree McRae Featured on the Latest Episode of The JogTunes Indie Podcast

Maree  McRae
Maree McRae

I'm happy to present the impressive artistry of the Denver based singer/songwriter Maree McRae. Her music is not only great for listening but also perfect for beat-matched interval running. The short interval segments are from 2 of her tunes and run at 186 and 190. A longer, slower interval is full track and runs at 179. Don't fret. I've included the complete versions of the faster tunes at the end of the show.

Interval running is not for the feint of heart. Please be sure you're fit for this workout. If you have any doubts you still can enjoy this runset by taking the intervals at a slower pace and/or by shortening your stride.

It's All Megaphone on Episode #50 of the JogTunes Indie Podcast


Megaphone


Megaphone's Album Cryin' Out Loud


Megaphone's New Album Exit Silent Mode



I played a Megaphone track on my last Christmas show and vowed that I would bring this awesome rock band back for a solo engagement. All of their podsafe tunes are featured on this mid-month episode of the JTIP and sequenced for a really fun 30 minute run.

It's mostly easy going jogging and running with a long interval run at 172 BPM. If you're not used to that speed, run it for 30 seconds then slow your pace or shorten your stride. If you're comfortable with that pace, enjoy over 3 minutes of flat out running.

As always, I welcome your comments. Please send them to comments at jogtunes.com, post them on our JogTunes.com facebook fan page, or send me a tweet.

New Tunes and Podcast on Jogtunes.com

I just moved to Austin, Texas, and had little time to post tunes and blog. I'm getting back to it and found some intriguing music for great beat-matched workouts. Them Crooked Vultures appeared on Saturday Night Live and now we've got 3 of their tunes from their new album with BPMs of 153, 153, and 186.

Massive Attack just released their latest album HeligolandMassive Attack. It's a different sound for matching your stride. We posted 2 runnables at 158 and 185 BPM.

Peter posted his "tested" list for January and from that list I picked Green Day's "Murder City", running fast at 182 and The 69 Eyes' "Some Kind of Magick", running comfortably at 160.

    When I first heard Louinel Jean’s new song, “Power of Love”, I immediately started planning this episode. It’s a perfect theme for the end of a tumultuous decade as it sets the tone for what I’m sure we all hope will be a smoother 10 years aided by the power of love. All of the tunes are about love, and range in BPMs from walking paces to tempos for all out running.

    New Episode of the JogTunes Indie Podcast Featuring Reggae and Louinel Jean

    The latest episode (#38) of the JogTunes Indie Podcast is out the door!

    A year and 1/2 ago I published my first predominantly reggae episode and it ranked high on my download stats. Reggae is just plain easy and fun to run to. On this show, not only do I bring reggae to the forefront again but I feature an outstanding musician, composer, producer, and humanitarian, Louinel Jean.

    Jean is a Haitian who moved to Jamaica in 1998. A man of deep compassion, Jean composes and performs music that not only entertains but inspires and informs. He calls for us to be our best and to be sensitive to the hardship of others, especially children.

    Other tunes not included in this show keenly increase our awareness oif injustice. Check out two outstanding works on this theme: Darfur Outcry on Garageband.com and Justice on iTunes.

    Jean first graced my show on episode #23 and then again on #33 with 3 of his most popular works. On this episode, I replay these tunes along with 2 newer Louinel Jean tracks, and tunes by 4 other artists in the reggae and dub traditions.

    Songs about Running Added to the JogTunes Tunes List

    I came across a great thread on Runner's World's website. It's all about songs about running. I found workout songs by many artists including Rush, Melissa Etheridge, A Flock of Seagulls, George Strait, and Collective Soul. Of course the thread listed Iron Maiden's Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner. I already had that in my Tunes List as well as the popular Runnin' Down a Dream by Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers. My thanks goes to the many contributors to this thread.

    Also, from iTunes' Top Tunes and Albums and New Releases: I found walkables and runnables by Colbie Caillat, Cobra Starship, Trey Songz, and Stars of Track and Field.

    Best of running and enjoy the music! --Dr. Bob
