I went through a short lived kinda gimmicky phrase where I played a lot of proggy tunes pitched waaaay down to around 110 bpm, so they came out really trippy and druggy. Usually the more melodic they were, the better. I built a mix around Sasha's remix of Depeche Mode - Precious pitched down around there, but as I said, it was kinda a gimmick--just regular tunes listened to in a different way.

Kinda like taking tracks that are meant at 45 but playing them at 33. Sometimes you actually get a better track lol!

I never really found the BPM to be a factor for me - a tune is a tune no matter how it's pitched.

The only problem I've ever had has been trying to match the wildly varying BPM's together while mixing, but...

I'm the same. Although i do remember pitching Gecko - Flugmaschiene up tp + 6% and going mental.

Not really. There are tracks I've heard first at their original tempo and then later heard pitched up or down by a DJ and thought "That sounds better".
