Which pieces of music motivate you when doing sports?

I am looking for high-energy tracks that make you overcome your fear, give you that extra boost, and push you over the finish line. ⚡️

#music #sports #athletics

I think some music mostly motivates me because I associate it with something else, specifically skate edits.

The best example is probably the music from my most favourite edit of all time:

#music #wizardSkating #rollerblading #inlineSkating

Them Skates & Brain Dead present: JK in 5D Vision

Got U, by White Ring

from the album SHOW ME HEAVEN

White Ring

A more interesting example are most of Danny Beer’s skate edits: There, I don’t think I would like the music on its own if it was not connected to the skating.

But the skating looks like so much fun, daring, silly, full of raw energy — it’s infectious! ⚡
I do think that the music contributes to this vibe, though.

@smeikx Rage Against The Machine - Killing In The Name

@oli Danke dir, jetzt hab ich mir das endlich mal in Ruhe angehört – immer wieder mal namentlich gehört, aber irgendwie nie bewusst wahrgenommen.

Wieso treibt dich der Song an? Sind es die musikalischen Eigenschaften, oder eher deine persönlichen Assoziationen damit?

@smeikx Ich habe nie das 'wieso' hinterfragt. Musik vermittelt ein Gefühl und dieser Song pusht einfach finde ich.
