I am working on some new mix tapes for my weekly spin class. Class starts in October once I bring my workouts back indoors through the winter.

We haven't got the final schedule yet, but Wed or Thurs 7 PM class. Have to coordinate with the Zumba, Pilates, and Yoga instructors.

Anyway, I like edgy club music, remixes of pop stuff, and straight up house and trance, because of the four on the floor beats at 125-135 BPM, good for cadence. Like this: http://youtu.be/zRWtvOoPzqs

But for out of the saddle maximum efforts I drop some really big sounding blow your legs off stuff. Tell me what you think of this one: http://youtu.be/DiuvsuJ6t7k

Got any others?

    I'm sorry, I hate that type of music during my spin classes!

    I like plain music with a good beat.

    I've got one really close to that! The Wheatus and Muse songs on one of mine.

    Did you listen to the Bass Monster track? What would you think of that dropping for 4 minutes of maximum resistance? I usually put a monster "hill" about mid session, no one can breathe by the end. That's the idea anyway.

    Yeah my classes aren't very vanilla. That's what the other instructors are for. Mine are late night (at least for here). 5 and 6 are the prime time evening classes here.
