new workout music

I love listening to upbeat indie music while I work out, and I really want to find some new songs and bands! Stuff like Best day of my life by American Authors, Dreaming by Small Pools, Alright by Mat and Kim... You know, just the happy fun stuff : ) Any suggestions?

  • I love Matt and Kim! I love their songs "Camera" and "Day Light" as well. I also like Grouplove! "Tongue Tied", "Colors", "Naked Kids"

    I sense some Eminem love :) I'm not a huge rap fan, but I do listen to it sometimes, and I like lose yourself

    Passion Pit - Lots of great peppy stuff there.
    Haim - if you like 70's rock vibe.
  • Passion Pit! YES! I listened to "Take a Walk" during my warm up today.

    There's also Metric. And I like Dead Sara if you want some rock-type stuff.

    You might like this playlist! http://www.runnersworld.com/workout-music/merge-records-25k-playlist?page=single#.U0x6yLjI72k.email
    Also I just got the Secret Life of Walter Mitty soundtrack; lots of indie stuff that is good for working out.
    You might also check out the site jog.fm. You can look up music by BPM, genre, etc. and find songs you might not have heard otherwise! I just made a kickass BPM-based tempo run playlist after browsing the site. It's great!
