Ah right - not too sure where you'll find out like that.

The whole hardtek/tribe & breakcore scene meets this criteria, but starts at about 170-180 BPM - any slower than that and it will become difficult to get the breaks in at half speed (I would have thought) and you'd end up using more hip-hop sounds than breaks.

I've just started to play around with production, so I do stand to be corrected here, but I know (or think I know) from what I've heard in the past, and from the work I've been doing myself, that there is plenty out there at the higher tempo's of 170-180BPM and it is a pretty commonly used idea – one that I intend to use myself a great deal and that the persons mentioned in this thread have already explored.

I do like the idea of getting the speed down to hard techno speed though and employing breaks in the same way in there, so if you do find anyone doing it I'd be very interested if you could recommend. I would have thought you'd need to either use really slow breaks – right down to hip-hop/trip-hop speed, or else use breaks at over 140BPM and get the techno going along at an identical speed.
