Comments on: 'BodiBeat' matches music to your heart rate

Just don't play the slow stuff.

Nice Idea, but why not build BPM workout playlist?

Or instead of spending money on a "special" device to match your music to your heart rate, you could just build smart playlists for your basic levels of workouts like is outlined in this blog post:

Need music for your new BODiBEAT

LIke Brent says in his comment above, you can make your own lists. He's got a
great blog post about this. He also mentions <a
href="http://jogtunes.com>JogTunes.com They offer listings and and
playlists of BPM rated tunes (over 650) with links to iTunes and other sources.
They find the songs and determine the BPMs so you don't have to. Quite a time-
saver. Either way you do it, it should greatly enhance your BODiBEAT experience.

www.bodibeat.com is actually going to have a pretty sweet song database where you'll be able to search a library of ~100K songs by beats per minute, "runnability," etc. Then you'll be bale to buy the songs directly via the Amazon mp3 store. Jogtunes is a pretty good site, but BODiBEAT's library will be an order of magnitude larger and Amazon mp3's are DRM free so you can play them anywhere!

i wrote synchstep (http://synchstep.com) and it does exactly this. it's free and runs on your iphone or ipod touch and works with your entire music library.

it's a project i made back in 2005 that i ported to the iphone/ipod
last february.
