Your favourite bpm..
I prefer 145 for hard techno &
140~ for funky/light or just simple techno
but sometimes i get confused with 145 some track have default fast speed
(145) however lots of hard techno are at 140~ & when i pich them up they dont sound so banging like at 140 ect.
:crackup:

For me, hard techno needs to be a minimum of 150. Although things canget very interesting playing 33rpm vinyl at 45rpm

slower the better.
130-140

anything over that loses it`s hardness for rapidity.

The slower it is, the fatter the beats and vice versa.

yea high 130's definatly.....it allows it to groove and breathe much more.....but then again.... all that mad shranz isnt there to be groovy!!

depends on time of night etc....

but my techno goes from late 120's to 160.

playing my usual style of hard techno i usually start off about 140 and end up around 150bpm.

i pitch my decks up to +16, but dont play blindingly fast, just means i can fit some slower stuff in when its pitched right up.prob 150ish?

depends on what and where i'm playin. some chill club, keep it slowish. 135-138.

For me around 155-160bpm is a nice speed... :rambo:

I am a definate speed freak - 160+ for much of the older stuff I've written.

Started a Herd-techno tune the other day at 158 (an attempt to slow it down a bit) and then dropped it further to 150 today and it definately sounds chunkier...

Any speed will do me. It's a lot more interesting to hear (and to play) a set that goes up and down in tempo though.

140 for Techno. I find that a good speed. may go
up to 145 sometimes.

anything from 135 to 160 like most people have said depends on the time and place. love hammering it though :twisted:

i usually stay between 130 and 140. on rare occasions i'll push it to 150, but only with more minimal stuff.

i don't mind hardcore at 180+ but stuff in the 160-170 range pisses me off.

I concur. That is precisely around where I like my bangin techno.

If I play house or more minimal techno, I'll take it down to 120-125.

145-155 normally, love fast music - when I write its never slower than 150.

I was in to gabba before I got in to Techno so please forgive me!

Lamb
24-05-2005, 10:46 AM
It depends, if im writing teechno itss usually 150 - 155, but some tracks sound better slower. When im playing techno it depends on how much ive been drinkin, more beer more beats :wicked:

I have no preferred tempo really. It works or it doesn't. I've done sets myself that started around 110-120 and end around 220-250bpm. Those are always fun because the energy is always noticably building.

SlavikSvensk
24-05-2005, 06:10 PM
i always spin somewhere between 1 and a million bpm.
