“With the hectic pace of touring, exercise has become essential for maintaining my mental balance and overall health,” Ben Böhmer tells Apple Music. “Music is huge for me when I’m working out. It sets the tone, keeps me locked in, and helps prevent distractions. When the right track hits, it makes the whole session flow.” To help you achieve a similar state of sweaty bliss, the Berlin producer/DJ has assembled a breezy melodic house set for his Apple Music Fitness Mix for the gym, which he envisions as “a companion that keeps you focused, motivated, and in a good headspace while training.” To set a natural cadence, “it starts a bit softer, easing you into the session,” says Böhmer, whose collaborative track “Weightless” kicks off the mix. “From there, the energy gradually intensifies and keeps building,” he adds. “The final track [Jon Hopkins’ ‘Immunity’] is special to me. It’s the piece I use as a personal cool-down meditation after every workout, so it closes the mix on a grounded, peaceful note.”
