Well I've been kind of busy, just started seriously using last.fm, spent some time getting it to srobble from all my listening methods. So I haven't posted in a while so to make it up to you here's my list of the 6 free songs for February 2012. These songs are all available on Epitonic for free and legal download. To download the song, click on the name of the song. The band name links to wikipedia or another site, wikipedia or last.fm, about the band. They all are close to 90BPM so work for a 180SPM (strides per minute) run.
Stay Gold by The Big Pink 88BPM
English electro-rockers, who "Shine a light for us to follow". Great song for night running while wearing a head lamp...
Motivation by Clams Casino 88 BPM
One dude from New Jersey. I can't figure out the genre... its good though.
Believe E.S.P by Deerhoof 89 BPM
From those San Francisco hipsters Deerhof, I think I'm starting to have a thing for them.
The Kindest Hour by Big Sir 90BPM
My favourite song on the list, electronic kind of, but has some cello going on in there too. I love cello. I love how looking for running music lets me discover amazing bands like Big Sir.
French upbeat electro rock. Gaspard and Xavier will get you in the mood to run.
Fast, high energy American hip-hop. Get some power in that running.
When I am Small (RAC Mix) by Phantogram 92BPM
OK this is seven not six, but I have already posted this song. At the time of the post I didn't realise that it was available for download on Epitonic, I updated the post, but in case you missed it, I am repeating myself. Download this sizzling track right away.
Not enough free music for you? Make sure you didn't miss my other 6 free running song posts for Jan 2012 and Dec 2011.
