Upbeat Workout Music, Volume 12

After quite a lengthy break from putting together any more volumes in my Workout Mix series, I did one last week, and here's yet another: volume 12.

The mix is a continuous music mix which is an hour long, and anyone can download it (the link is near the bottom of this post). This mix is for demo purposes only, and commercial resale or redistribution is not permitted.

Here are Track Listings for Workout Mix #12:

01. Tegan & Sara, "Closer" (Edit).
02. Demi Lovato, "Heart Attack" (Edit).
03. Inna, "Be My Lover" (Edit).
04. Armin Van Buuren feat Trevor Guthrie, "This Is What It Feels Like" (Edit).
05. Sak Noel & Sito Rocks, "Party On My Level" (Edit).
06. Capital Cities, "Safe & Sound" (Edit).
07. Katy B, "5 AM" (Edit).
08. Miley Cyrus, "Wrecking Ball" (Edit).
09. Pitbull & Ke$ha, "Timber" (Edit).
10. 3BallMTY, "Quiero Bailar, All Through the Night" (Edit).
11. Psy, "Gentleman" (Edit).
12. Katy Perry, "Dark Horse" (Edit).
13. Zedd, "Stay The Night" (Edit).
14. Krewella, "Live For The Night" (Edit).
15. Martin Garrix, "Animals" (Edit).

Note: I didn't list the specific remix versions that I used in this mix. That's because I do a lot of specific editing of my own to each track before I put the mix together, adding extra percussion or melodic elements, and sometimes I combine pieces from two or more remixes for any given track.


To download a 1.5 GB Zip file that includes all of the mixes in DJ Bolivia's workout series, right-click on this link and choose "save target" or "save link":



For links to the blog posts about the other mixes in this series, visit:






I have lots of other upbeat electronica mixes available on my DJ website. Admittedly, there aren't too many mixes there [yet] that are exclusively club dance tracks, but there are a lot of house/trance mixes that I find to be pretty good to listen to when I'm going running. Or driving. Or doing any sort of mindless task where I just want some energetic beats to listen to. Most of them are about an hour long, to fit onto a standard CD. Check them out, maybe you'd enjoy some of them? And click here if you're interested in one of my favorites, a massive four-hour mix that I made of classic dance tracks from the late 1990's and early 2000's.

Music To Code By, volumes 4-6

And for those of you who read my blog last week, with the story behind the first three volumes of the "Music To Code By" mix series, here are the final three volumes (from early 2006). Again, I'm posting these because all the info is hard to find on the internet, and I still get asked about my older mixes all the time. I actually had to go back to the Way Back Machine to locate most of the info posted below. Of course, there is a much more comprehensive list of download links to hundreds of mixes on the mix page of my main website, but that page doesn't have track listings or other details.

Music To Code By, volumes 1-3

Several years ago, I noticed that a lot of traffic was being driven to my website by Microsoft blogger Dan Fernandez. He had a very active blog back from about 2003-2006 (and still updates it occasionally), and in one post, he mentioned that he was listening to one of my DJ mixes while doing some coding work. Once I saw that, I actually contacted him (since I was a computer science student back in the days of punch-cards and 8-bit assembly, and even now I still code my websites by hand in a text editor, which is admittedly lame). We've corresponded frequently over the years.

Anyway, he commented that the type of music I played was pretty good to have as background music for computer "programming" work, because it was high energy and didn't have a lot of vocals, so it wasn't distracting for someone who was trying to concentrate on something intellectual. I decided to do a series of mixes called "Music To Code By." These mixes became pretty popular on the internet, and indirectly ended up being the reason that I've become friends with a number of people over the years, and they have therefore really shaped my lifestyle and DJ career over time. They also led to things like my first big show (GDC in San Jose back in 2006), my involvement with the DefCon Hacker's Conferences (through tProphet, who discovered me through these mixes), and my trip to Antarctica (again, through Pinguino & friends, hacker-related).

Although the mixes have always been available from the mix page on my main website, they've become buried in a flood of other music lately, and the track listings associated with the mixes have also disappeared from the website. As a result, I've decided to repost them here in my blog, so people doing Google searches can find the track listings again. So here are links once again to the first three of the six mixes in the series, along with track listings. I'll dig up track listings for the second half of the series next week and post them too.

All of these mixes were done "live" with vinyl on turntables. Ah, the "good old days." Click here to view the post about volumes 4-6 of this series.
