KSHMR & JAKE REESE | Carry me home

USA & HOLLAND | 2018

| KSHMR is an American musician whose father is Indian. Hence his name, which is an abbreviation for “Kashmir”, a state of India.

| Before starting his career as a DJ, KSHMR (Niles Hollowell-Dhar) produced multiple commercial hits for artists like Selena Gómez, Enrique Iglesias, Pitbull, 50 cent or Snoop Dogg, whose song “Sweat” is included in our Playlist Car Music, .

| Jake Reese, winner of The X Factor in Holland, wrote the lyrics and is also the singer of “Carry me home”, a song that takes you back to the time when you were a child and everything was easier. Great exercise music.

KYGO & WHITNEY HOUSTON | Higher Love

NORWAY & USA | 2019

| This is the best workout music you can find, because of its joy and rhythm. We owe it all to Kygo, famous Norwegian DJ, and a 30-year-old unreleased recording of Whitney Houston.

| “Higher Love” is the first song that features Whitney Houston’s voice after her death. When Kygo was commissioned to compose music for the song, he said:

I was proud when Whitney Houston heirs reached out and offered me the opportunity to work with one of the greatest female vocalists of all time.

| Listen carefully to the end of the song. Kygo included all the improvisations that Whitney did in the original recording, adding some cuts to her voice. It sounds awesome.

SCOOTER | Hyper Hyper

GERMANY | 1994

| The song begins “I want to make you sweat”, so you know, time to go for a run wink.

| Hyper Hyper was one of the greatest dance hits in 1994. When you listen to the song, you’ll hear 30 names, they are all famous DJs at the time.

| Scooter celebrated in 2018 their 25th anniversary as one of the most successful techno acts of all time, thanks to his lead singer, H.P. Baxxter, who is still active. Their best recent single is “God Save the Rave”.

 

SUPERMODE | Tell me why

SWEDEN | 2006

Tell me why” is a song I always use when I run. It has a constant base that helps me keeping the pace 🏃‍♀️

| Axwell y Steve Angello, 2 of the 3 members of the popular electronic band “Swedish House Mafia”, formed Supermode just to release this song, so it’s the only tune of the band ever.

| Funnily enough the song is a mix of two tunes by the 80s band Bronski Beat: “Smalltown Boy” and “Why?”. Axwell and Steve convinced the original singer of the band, Hal Ritson, to  sing in this song as well. For those of you who love the 80s like me, this is the link to Bronski Beat (Jimmy Somerville) greatest hits vinyl.

EDUN | Put ’em up

NIGERIA & RUSSIA | 2005

| Alice Edun is a singer born in Russia to a Nigerian father and living in Italy. What a cool combination!

| Although she started singing in a gospel choir and still is into gospel, she had an inclusion in dance music with “Put ’em up”, which didn’t become successful until 2 years after it was released.

| When you watch the video, tell me if you notice Edun dancing at a different rhythm than the song. It’s because she went so nervous listening to her own song while recording that the director decided to play other tunes for the shooting laughing

DELAPORTE | Ni un beso

SPAIN | 2019

| This Italian-Spanish duo started uploading covers on YouTube. I promise they are going to attract great attention.

|Ni un beso (Not a Kiss)” is that kind of song that gets into your head and plays on repeat. The perfect song to hit the bike or run some time.

| Sandra Delaporte and Sergio Salvi tell us the story behind the song:

It reflects that time when something is ending, but it is difficult to leave. It explains the specific moment in which you end up deciding that it is over, that you are not going to give him another kiss and that if he writes you, you will not answer him again.
