I said a few weeks ago that Children by Robert Miles would have to be in your Top 10 dance tunes. Would this one have to be Top 3?
An absolute classic from Thomas Bangalter (one half of Daft Punk), fellow French DJ and producer Alan Braxe (who collaborated with Fred Falke on the excellent Intro) and vocalist Benjamin Diamond. Continue reading “The Awesome Running Playlist – Track 38”
Known as the breakout star of Rinse FM (home to dubstep and grime) and breaking dubstep into the UK charts with her debut single – On a Mission. Katy B goes little more pop with the lead off single from her second album – Little Red. Continue reading “The Awesome Running Playlist – Track 37”
One of the tracks that helped take dubstep mainstream and is a full-on goosebump inducing classic!
Maybe one for the longer runs and rather than the speeds sessions, but if you can hold on for the drop after 4 minutes, you’ll be charging. Continue reading “The Awesome Running Playlist – Track 36”
If you had to pick your Top 10 dance tunes, this one would have to be in there.
A pioneering track of Dream Trance, (which aimed to calm lively crowds down before their journey home) peaking at number one in more than 12 countries, but “only” making number 2 in the UK. (We’re an odd bunch). Continue reading “The Awesome Running Playlist – Track 35”
This one is rather leftfield . I’m one of the few people you bought this single and helped it reach 25 on the UK Singles Chart back in 2002, Boniface’s only chart entry. I think it’s fantastic and one of my favourite tunes. The breathless start and urgency it purveys will get you moving on your run. Continue reading “The Awesome Running Playlist – Track 34”
I chanced across this new tune via YouTube and it could just about be the perfect running tune.
I liked the British producers previous tunes Need U (100%) and I Got You from a few years back but his new one, The Power, is an absolute stomper. Continue reading “The Awesome Running Playlist – Track 33”
We are not moving very far away in time from the last week’s tune but we are moving across the Atlantic, for producer Roger Sanchez’s smash, Another Chance. Continue reading “The Awesome Running Playlist – Track 32”
Last month was marked by the recent passing of another influential DJ. French DJ and producer Philippe Zdar, who accidentally fell from a building in Paris in June 2019. Zdar was one half of the dance music duo, Cassius. Continue reading “The Awesome Running Playlist – Track 31”
The Grammy award winning collaboration between two different genres that’s a mash-up combining lyrics from Linkin Park’s “Numb” and “Encore” by Jay-Z, both released in 2003, but from their EP Collision Course from 2004. Continue reading “The Awesome Running Playlist – Track 30”
There is not many rock tunes on this list, if any. It’s not that I’m just an old school house head. It’s trying to find good rock tunes to run to. I’ve been through plenty of bands, but most songs are not quick enough or at least not quick enough for me and this playlist. Continue reading “The Awesome Running Playlist – Track 29”
