Hi, serge here; i have started to go to the gym almost daily and pursue running routinely as well. Often times in listening to trance, progressive house, techno, and electronica sets I will come across a track and it will literally send shivers down my spine and give me goose bumps followed by a shock of adrenaline that would usually last for a minute or two. To get the same feeling i usually replay the track for a while to repeat the effect... however after about 10 times it wont give me the same adrenaline rush... slightly less each time.
Thus the need for this thread. Sometimes i need some recommendations for quality tracks that will really motivate one to sprint the very last 100 meters down a 10 mile stretch, or lift that extra weight at the weightroom and such. I suppose this is similar to a "whats your favorite track thread,"... however we music addicts have listened to many of songs over and over and have grown accustomed to certain sounds or recognize certain tracks and thus they dont have the same effect on us anymore.
That is why I ask that you present your favorite track... or track that really hits you hard that is relatively new/fresh/has really been underrated or that you would recommend to put on an mp3 device while exercise or any other motivation requiring task. Thank you very much for your help in advance; motivational tracks are different for everyone and any recommendation will be very appreciated.
(post your favorite track of the week or month that you had on replay for a while and really gave you that rush)
... i know you can go on with favorite tracks and such... but i want to hear the tracks that have really given you those goosebumps lately... only a few please (your favorites that i must go and seek out wanted... i mean really blew your socks off... any genre of music)

For Always:
britney spears - breathe on me (james holden vocal remix)
hate that bitch, love this remix... it never fails to bring me on cloud 9, whether i'm working out, cruisin in the car, etc.. arguably the most romantic prog tune ever made..
right now 2 for me:
Motorcycle- Around You (G&D Mix) (although this usually leaves me as a puddle on the floor )
Above and Beyond vs Andy Moor- Air For Life (basssliiiiine! )
Prodigy - Voodoo People (Paranormal Attack remix) is a SICK track that I turn on for mile 3 out of 5
Smack my bitch up and Breathe also work great for a sprint
For a nice steady pace of running I turn on U2 - where the streets have no name, sunday bloody sunday, and still haven't found what I'm looking for... nice steady beat and relax me also
Kaycee - Escape (think you first showed me this track years ago, nice energy, cheese but I love it )
Blue Fish - Been too long (some fast remix I forget)
Luminary - My World (Pesh or Nikola Gala remix)
Origene - Sanctuary (yes KTU house works well for running)
BT - Godspeed, Lullaby for Gaia
Sasha's new Fundacion is going to my iPod next, great beat and flow, could run through the whole CD

I adore music as much as anyone on here... but a single song has never given me an adrenaline rush. If a song could do that for me, I would pay 20$ a listen. The one adrenaline rush I've had was the greatest experience/feeling of my life.

In the beginning there was Jack. And Jack had a groove. And from this groove came the groove of all grooves. And while one day viciously throwing down on his box Jack boldly declared "Let there be house!" And house music was born. I am the creator and this is my house and in my house there is only house music. But I am not so selfish because once you enter my house it then becomes our house and our house music and you see no one man owns house because house music is a universal language spoke and understood by all. You see, house is a feeling that no one can understand really unless you're deep into the vibe of house. House is an uncontrollable desire to jack your body and as I told you before this is our house and our house music. In every house you understand, there is a keeper and in this house the keeper is Jack.
