THE MOST RECENT EPISODE
The JogTunes Indie Podcast #34 - 40 Minutes - One Range - 160s
June 30th, 2009
Our Mevio listing. Our Odeo Channel. Our Podcast Alley listing. Our podlounge page. And on podnova, check us out here.
Exactly one year ago, on episode #22, all of the tunes I played were in the limited BPM range of the 150s. I recently received a compliment about that show from Michael on the JogTunes Facebook fan page. That prompted me to produce another single BPM range show. I chose the 160s because I believe most runners find it a comfortable range for working out. Some people may consider adding this episode to the 150s episode to create a very pleasant 80 minute, extended session. I welcome feedback about single range episodes and the concept of daisy chaining those shows. Please your comments to comments at jogtunes.com or to my Twitter or Facebook pages.
Here are the artists, their locations, and the resources I consulted to find them:
By Personal Communication
Louinel Jean - Jamaica - BPM of 163
Rob Szabo - Ontario, Canada - 160
From CyberPR
Jessie Murphy In the Woods - New York - BPM of 169
Nick Dougherty - Los Angeles - 168
Trey Green - Boston - 166 and 168
From the Independent Online Distribution Alliance’s Promonet
Eastern Sun and John Kelley - Venice, California - BPM 118
Dengue Fever - Los Angeles - 162

Yamasaki - The UK - BPM 115

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.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT OUR SHOW
The JogTunes Indie
Podcast is
a 30 to 60 minute
podcast that's meant to
be “run to.”
By that we mean it’s
intended to be listened
to while you’re
running.
Well, that was the original intent. Turns out, most indoor cyclist, aquarunners, users of
stairmasters, ellipticals and mini-trampolines, and even swimmers, may find these
shows great for working out exactly to the tempos of indie music.
The songs are selected
and sequenced solely
for working out exactly
to the beat of the
music. The shows begin
with a brief introduction
and a warm-up tune usually
in the 110-130 BPM
range. This is followed
by a series
of tunes
that begins in the
140-150 range and
usually peaks with
tunes in the BPM range
of 170-185. The sequence
slows back down to
a cool-down in the
110-130 range.
Some episodes may have a "sprint segment" which follows a cool-down tune at around 15 minutes toward
the end of the episode. This segment is a short, fast set that ends with a final cool-down track. Some users may need to keep their workout short and stop with the first cool-down while others may want to complete the full episode.
Dr. Bob, the founder of
JogTunes.com, is the producer and host.
He provides introductions
to the songs along
with the BPM details.
The indie artists' tunes are podsafe and come from many resources. The main, podsafe, tune-download resources are the
Podsafe
Music Network (PMN) and the Independent Online Distribution Alliance (IODA)'s
promonet.
Dr. Bob finds many bands and tunes from other podcasters' shows. Listings of these shows can be found on sites such as
The Alliance for Music Podcasting,
blubrry.com,
Podshow.com, and, of course, the iTunes Music Store. There are also many websites that are dedicated
to indie music and provide lists of bands and their works. Finally,
many of the bands have promoters who announce new tunes and albums by email. This is a great way to come across some fine indie music.
Most of the tunes on the playlists are available via our links to the
iTunes Music Stores in the
US, the UK, Irelend, Canada, and Japan. Some of the songs
can be purchased by clicking
on links to Amazon/MP3, the
Podsafe
Music Network (PMN) or through links to the artists' and/or their promoters' websites.
