Cadence - Running Music

No sign up and ad-free music to improve running cadence.

FREE MUSIC. NO ADS. NO SUBSCRIPTIONS. NO IN-APP PURCHASES.

Coaches widely recommend runners aim for roughly 170–180 steps per minute to shorten stride and reduce overstriding. Holding an unfamiliar cadence is hard — metronome apps are joyless, and "170 BPM playlists" are approximate and never match your number.

Cadence makes the music itself the pacing device. Pick a target cadence and every song plays at exactly that tempo, live, with a beat-locked metronome underneath.

AUTO SPM BY PACE Turn on Auto SPM and stop thinking about numbers entirely. Your target cadence follows your live running pace through pace bands you control — slow down for a hill or a breather and the music eases with you; pick it back up and the beat rises to meet you. Fully editable: decide exactly which cadence kicks in at every pace, from easy jog to all-out sprint.
