Fitness: Ride, January 2022 (DJ Mix)

For the inaugural Apple Music Fitness Mix for cycling, British electronic producer and singer Aluna (formerly one half of AlunaGeorge) mimics her style of DJing. “I take whichever club or festival I’m playing all around the world with my collection of global dance music,” she tells Apple Music. “This time, it’s on a bike.” The set flows seamlessly from a relaxed warm-up into an intense set of half-time climbs and full-throttle sprints, with a few beats in between to catch your breath. Eventually, she guides you into what she calls the “sweet spot” of 90 RPM. “Of course, I had to move past that tempo just at the end for those who want a little extra challenge.” Undulating and invigorating, with plenty of bounce, the mix brings kinetic club energy into your ride. Aluna says the smooth warm-up cut “Topdown” by LA’s Channel Tres is the sort of deep bass cut that will help get you motivated. “It has that effect on the dance floor, too, where it just speaks to your body,” she says. Later on, DJ Sliink’s “Run Ricky Run” is sure to test your limits. “I’m sure you’ll have more than you thought,” she says, “because this track will bring it out of you.”
