David Bowie’s full discography will be made available on Peloton exercise equipment, alongside a bunch of new remixes.
The collaboration includes three new mixes by St. Vincent, Honey Dijon and TOKiMONSTA, who have revisited the classic tracks It’s No Game (No. 1), Let’s Dance and Golden Years, respectively.
Of her track, St. Vincent – real name Annie Clark – said she wanted to take on the song because “it has a part 2 on the record, and I figured maybe Bowie wouldn’t mind so much if I made a part 3.”
“I wanted to take Bowie’s throat-shredding vocal take from part 1, and make it front and centre. ‘Three steps to heavaaaaaaaaaaaahn…’”
Honey Dijon, meanwhile, took on Bowie’s classic Let’s Dance “because it’s a true celebration of music and movement – just like Peloton!”
Rounding out the new mixes, TOKiMONSTA – real name Jennifer Lee – said of her involvement in the project: “To me, I connect with Bowie as an amazing innovator.
“He was always reinventing himself and pushing the envelope of music, while somehow never ceasing to be authentically himself.
“His experimental fashion choices are always a beacon for me to challenge my style and look.”
The David Bowie Collection is available for Peloton App users starting Wednesday, January 19, alongside a series of workout classes soundtracked by Bowie’s hits.
Bowie fans have been celebrating the musician’s legacy this month to coincide with what would have been his 75th birthday.
Among the special releases is the lost 2001 album ‘Toy’, which marked Bowie’s return to the UK Top 10.
In a review of the album, Retro Pop said the “brilliance” of ‘Toy:Box’ “is that he not only left behind an unreleased album, but also a full expanded edition to be enjoyed for years to come…”
‘Toy’ is available on CD and vinyl,
