MUSIC IS SO IMPORTANT!

• Music is critical to the Climber’s experience

• Use music to create a journey

• Music should include peaks and valleys

• Shouldn’t be all the same style songs

• Song 3 and last song are the most important, and are the HYPE songs

• Everything in between should be feeling of emotional and physical connection.

  • Physical - connect and make sure they stay present

  • Mental - emotional connections; memories

• Tempo vs Rhythm

  • Tempo - the beat that stays the same

  • Rhythm - always changing

  • The down beat is on the 1

  • Finding the fast beat vs the slow beat
