One of my favorite things outside of Parkour is music. I love almost all kinds of music, as evident of the "Anything Goes" policy when my iPod is playing on shuffle. However, there are 2 main genres that I love the most. The first one is a newer, ambiguous umbrella of music genres incubated and culminated by the thousands of good parkour, tricking, skiing, dance, and other videos out there featuring predominantly instrumental blends of hip hop beats, electronica, dubstep, soul, and glitch hop to name a few. For the sake of this article, I will call this strange mix of genres "Trick Hop Instrumentals". Over the years, I have had countless people ask me about the songs that I feature in classes at APEX Movement and my YouTube accounts, DemonDrills, ColoradoParkour, and ApexMovement. A lot of the time, the answer points back to an underground hip hop artist. I love to use underground hip hop because it often features lyrics that tell a great story that could match up with your video or the message you want to spread. In addition, the poetic lyrics often flow so smoothly with a creative, rhythmic beat, that it is a perfect complement to the beautiful, constant motion that we perform. So anyway, getting to the point. My goal of this article is to share the music I love training, performing, and watching with Parkour. For everyone out there who is interested in the songs, artists, and playlists that I have featured over the years, here are some of my favorites: Honorable <b>...</b>
