anything that's hard and mental, i like slower, like around 130-134.
for some reason I like more clubby techno really sped up like 140-145.
techouse or mnml, I hover around 126-130.
Therefore..... ots=135 bpm......... imo at leastthe opposite of congress must be progress

150? you kids and your drugs! :)
132-134 works good for any kind of techno. Glenn Wilson records still sound just as hard at 132. If you're talking swedish techno, italian, or that kind of clubby stuff...I like 136-138. Melodies clash too much when it gets faster than that.

Now I am swaying much more towards 135 as this allows me much more room to put the groove n wiggle in to play... am finding much more space to fill each sound out to it's full potential, without being minimal...

Different measures for different times as well as for different folks eh... :)
