HARD CANDY Berlin’s (DJ Cringey and Toximami) bring the chaos. Their polygenre sets veer from donk to psytrance to baile funk, with viral cuts like No Regrets and “Booty Bounce” already cementing them as avatars of rave maximalism. In “Fitness”, their irreverence takes center stage, flipping gym culture into a delirious, floor-ready spectacle. For Odymel, “Fitness” works as a manifesto: a euphoric invitation to lose yourself, body first.
“Fitness” has already been stirring clubs and playlists with its euro-tinged rush and tongue-in-cheek stamina. Now, the video turns the volume up on concept: a surreal, stylized riff on a German public campaign from the early 2000s, reimagined as a hyperreal workout fantasy. HARD CANDY throw themselves headlong into a theater of sweat and repetition – all overcranked drills, gleaming choreography and camp athletic pageantry – while Odymel lurks in sly, blink-and-miss-it cameos, a shadowy coach in his own creation. The result is playful and self-aware, but never throwaway: a music video that doubles as performance art, spotlighting endurance, humor and rave excess. “Fitness” is out now on all mayor streaming platforms.
