In the scope of a workout, the advantage of a remix is simple: it takes a song you already know and makes it sound fresh again. Also, since most of these makeovers are geared toward a dance floor audience, it’s not unusual to find the tempo bumped up a bit as well. Given that both these changes suite them perfectly to a workout, we’ve collected some of the best recent remixes for your perusal below.
The list warms up with a remix of Noah Cyrus’ breakout single and winds down with an updated version of a collaboration between Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj. In between you’ll find both natural pairings (like Tiesto tackling a track by fellow DJ Kygo) and curious ones (like dancehall aficionados Major Lazer reimagining an Ed Sheeran hit). In short, the playlist is a bit like the remixes themselves—insofar as it blends the familiar with the surprising. To put this combo to work in your route, start anywhere below and go from there.
