The science of sound
Research published in the Journal of Sports Medicine found that synchronizing movement to music improves endurance by up to 15%. The right tempo reduces perceived exertion. The right energy keeps people pushing through the last rep, the last mile, the last thirty seconds of a plank.
But a gym isn't one workout. It's the 5:30 AM crew who needs dark, driving beats to wake up. It's the mid-morning yoga class that needs something completely different. It's the after-work rush where the energy has to match the room, not fight it.
Most gym owners know this. You've watched a packed class lose momentum because the wrong track killed the energy. You've seen a dead floor come alive when the right one hit.
The hard part was always controlling it — legally, reliably, without someone babysitting a playlist. Puana handles that.
BPM-matched to your floor
A gym floor at 6 AM needs different energy than a noon yoga class or a Friday evening boot camp. Puana lets you schedule different sounds for every part of the day — in 15-minute blocks, with automatic transitions. Set it once. It runs itself.
Driving electronic, uptempo hip-hop, high-energy beats. The tempo that keeps feet moving and heart rates climbing.
Heavy bass, controlled power. Slower tempo, bigger presence. Matches the deliberate pace of heavy lifts.
Ambient textures, flowing melodies, organic sounds. Space to breathe. Room to move without being pushed.
Dark, driving, minimal. The kind of sound that pulls people out of bed and into the work without being aggressive.
Balanced energy — not too intense, not too soft. Lunch-break warriors and steady-state cardio.
Full energy. The room is packed, the vibe is up. Music that matches the intensity of a full gym floor.
From a cafe in Michigan
“I built Puana because the music in my cafe mattered more than any playlist could handle. Then I realized — every space with people in it has the same problem.”
Puana started in a small cafe in Charlevoix, Michigan. Jesse Meria spent twenty minutes every morning trying to get the music right — scrolling playlists, skipping tracks, worrying about licensing.
He built Puana to fix that problem. A library of thousands of original tracks, each composed for real spaces. Not stock music. Not algorithm-generated filler. Music with texture, warmth, and enough edge to feel alive.
A gym floor has the same need as a dining room — the right sound at the right time, legally covered, running on its own. The energy is different. The principle is the same.
You describe the atmosphere you want. Puana plays exactly that.

The math
Personal streaming services aren't licensed for commercial use. The fine for copyright infringement is up to $30,000 per track. And 83% of businesses are doing it right now without knowing.
The “legal” alternative? A business music service ($25–30/mo) plus BMI ($250-500/year) plus ASCAP ($220-500/year) plus SESAC ($200-400/year). Total: $470-1,400+/year per year. And you still might not get the energy your members need.
Music service + BMI + ASCAP + SESAC
Everything included. No PRO fees.
