Playlists were missed, indeed. It had been a long time since we had published any, and then The Long One happened. Since within a weekly podcast there was music perhaps it seemed less important for us to talk about it again. The Long One is already made up of spoken parts and a lot of music (12 tracks at a time, including a bonus track), an alchemy designed to take you through the long weekend with words, our tone of voice, and our way of telling stories, and also with music that is always beautiful.
Then all your requests and suggestions made us realize how important music was to you in the race. We should have known, we know since we listen to so much of it running but hearing it from you and repeating it confirmed it for us.
That is why “The Long/B-Sides” was born today. It is not a podcast, there are no words-there is only music. “The Long / B-Sides” is a playlist that every week – on Wednesdays – will accompany you through your workouts, up to the prince of the weekend: the long, in fact.
Why this name? Because each playlist originates from the one from the previous week’s episode of The Long: as if it were 12 B-sides of the playlist you heard a few days earlier. Pure music, for shorter workouts, wonderful as always.
Happy listening and welcome to “The Long / B-Sides”!
