READY for a roll call of legendary names? Grace Jones, Yoko Ono, Miles Davies, and Prince… This is an artist combination that delivers enough energy for you to want to walk around downtown Riyadh or the boulevards of Paris for hours. This power-packed playlist has been lovingly curated by our polymath Contributing Editor, Marieva Malo: founder of The Way, Malo is a dancer, movement artist, nutritionist, and entrepreneur. So, she knows a thing or two about the right song to bring out the Rhythm of a Dancer and be Simply the Best (yes, this writer is lacing song titles in her copy for the joy of it).

Deena is a firm admirer of Malo’s playlist selection skills, so spin these songs on your decks at home or tap those AirPods to super loud and get walking. If you are more inclined to dancing in your living room, we have that vibe covered too in our ‘Launch Playlist’ or try our ‘Young, Gifted & Arab’ playlist by Sultan Al Darmaki here.

Read Marieva’s debut column for Deenathe1st, ‘The 10,000 Steps to Become a Flâneur’ to inspire you to get moving.
