the BPM doesnt make the soudn killer. its just the pace at which the sound is going to be. For example Tempo in any sequencer. |

Personally I find anything faster than 145 to be a bit too fast to get the right feel. I can always speed up my final mix in winamp or on my CDJs but I (personally) keep my stuff around 145 or 140. A lot of songs are right there as well, only DnB seems to have a faster BPM but there it is all cut time.

yep. keep the bpm between 130-145. the bpm ain't truely the thing that makes song powerfull. usually too fast bpm ruins the song because then it lack space for sounds due to too fast tempo |

135-145, faster than that I can't handle it to fast for me, but I've already heard that some people go as high as 155 (not my cup of tea)

well personally i love 148 for an up-tempo goa style thing... then again ppl have told me my tracks are too fast :/
some old stuff like green nuns is more like 160... but ... i agree, most modern psy is something like 135-145, mostly likely centred around the low 140s

140-145 for a full-on pace ... but again if u r keeping tht BPM, the sounds that u use have to really be in synergy with the groove. more that a bpm, its also a hihat, snare and kick pattern with innovative breaks that makes it killer. else even at a good 140 or 145, ur track might just sound nonsense with bad mixes ...
peace and fullon!

I say go for which Bpm you want...
for me in psy i keep in the range of 128-148, it all depends on what im doing...
but you will see psy tunes in the ranges of 120 - 160bpm it all depends how much energy you are keeping in your body! =)
try different bpm and experiment
i need to experiment with lots of stuff to keep evolving =) it´s all fun!! |
