The Crystal Method: Drive by Ami Kealoha
For some, making the perfect gym mix can be more taxing than the workout itself. The recently-released 45-minute track "Drive" is The Crystal Method's solution for athletes who'd rather spend time building muscle than building playlists. A partnership with Nike Plus (adding something like a lifestyle element to the iPod Nano-integrated sneaker that came out last month), the famed electronic duo tailored their new musical offering to a standard distance run—starting slower for warm-ups, building for the workout, and decreasing for cool downs. Download it from iTunes for $10.

Nike Trainer 1 Launch and Sketches
The original Air Trainer (above left) debuted 20 years ago, but Nike finally unveiled the long-awaited update last week.

Zoom Stefan Janoski SB: Designer James Arizumi Interview and Sketches

In keeping with his relaxed, nonchalant skate style, the Zoom Janoski is a clean, comfortable and functional shoe.

Solid Gold
Minneapolis is usually know for being cold, but as the music scene there intensifies, it's beginning to be known for stellar indie bands like Solid Gold. We can't stop listening to the cheeky synth-pop trio and their most recent album, "Bodies of Water." The repeat-worthy tracks are sharp but full of smooth, ethereal melodies that float around and consume your head. The name Solid...
