Intermediate Walk: Anything-but-Rock Playlist

Intermediate Walk: Anything But Rock Playlist

Sometimes, the things you want to hear on a walk need to move, but ought not rock. Here, I've kept the beats up (between 110 bpm and 130 bpm) and the number of crashing guitars down so that the keyboards, female MCs, and robotic woofing can do their magic in moving you along. There's also a slight (and somewhat groovy) lull in the middle of the list, so you can catch your breath before the big finish.
