What music for Turbo training ?

[numbnuts]

road to hell

 

[Ravenbait]

Either Podrunner or some PsyGoa Trance (I like the Zero-1 compilations).

I've just found this website - really useful for putting together a compilation for the turbo :

http://bpmdatabase.com/search.php


It lets you enter the bpm of the track and throws up a massive list of tracks..... a lot are really obscure, but great to play about with while the wretched white stuffs on the ground !

There is a few sites like that but as you say, there is a lot of obscure stuff. I use a couple of programmes to do it for me, one I just click the mouse to the beat, called "Beatmaster" and it tells me the BPM, but despite the fact I think I'm tapping to the beat, what it should be and what I make it are two different things, no wonder I can't dance:-

And the other one does it all by itself, just point it to the folder with your music and it works it out in seconds, not sure of its accuracy, but tracks that I have checked against a known database on such websites that you have mentioned are 100% accurate, maybe it links to such a site as some tracks that I have it fails to give a BPM so maybe some of my music is not in that database.

Susan Boyle......

As I don't ride that fast anyway.

Road to Roubaix soundtrack is on my 'listen to' list. Without fail Race Theme gets me keen to push on the pedals.

 

[MontyVeda]

Spanish Flea by Herb alpert and Flight of the Bumble Bee by Jean Jacques Perry on loop

 

[HLaB]

I don't think I've any other Dario G stuff but Carnival De Paris comes on on my mp3 player sometimes and I really like it for spinning.

I might see what other similar tracks I can dig up.

 

[Doseone]

System of a Down

 

[Garz]

Chop Suey

 

[screenman]

Dueling banjo's might work leave it on repeat and it could make for an interesting interval session.

On the turbo before breakfast this morning, with a head full of Deep Purple

I still think that Hawkwind's Doremi Fasol Latido is a classic turbo trainer album, best cranked up loud after warming up to something gentler!





(Ooh, I feel a gym bike session coming on ...)

Oh, yes Kestevan - if you can't put in a good effort to Ace of Spades then you are already dead!
