Ska Music Workout Playlist

March 24, 2014 by Katie

I’ve been looking forward to sharing this post for about 3 weeks now.

Slowly, but surely, I have been creating the playlist of all playlists, and I finally deem it worthy to share. Three words: ska, workout, playlist.

For those of you not familiar with ska music, it’s a super upbeat, horn-drenched, fast-paced music style. (I actually wrote a paper on it in college if you want to know more about its Jamaican background.) It’s not my usual go-to music genre, but every time I stumble over it, I immediately go to my happy place.

Ska Workout Playlist

I found some popular, fast tracks that make me want to bust a move, and I cannot wait to start running to this playlist. I’ve been listening to it at work a lot, and it always makes me want to bust out into skanking. (Aka the traditional dance style of ska music. Look it up. Specify “dance” though. Just in case…) Then I realize, I’m sitting at a desk in a silent office, and people probably don’t want to hear my jumping and kicking at 7am.

So here you go: 15 ska songs for 52 minutes of workout motivation. Enjoy!

    You are the first answer on google when I type “ska workout songs”.

    Google is right again. Great playlist !.

    You should look up The Planet Smasher, great ska band from Montréal. In my opinion, its the only thing missind from your playlist. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L5ml0ddqnsk
