so that's what happens when you pitch down adam beyer's sets at -10%

though probably their study was based on dj aligator or something

beware of studies which don't clearly explain their method of testing.. this seems like something that was posted awhile back aswell..

Hmm, so what happens if I listen to super-furious 150-beat-per-minute Second Sun - Empire?!

120BPM? "Furious"? Eh?

Posted by DJ APX on Aug-29-2003 23:31:

LMAO ! If you pay attention to the road and concentrate on driving (example: Don't look at the person sitting next to you when you talk to them) you'll be OK no matter what kind of music you're blasting on your system . They are trying to blame it on the music now instead of the people . I listen loud and fast and never have any problems .

If they made me listen to dj aligator while driving i'd wanna crash too

Posted by VaNFeCto on Aug-30-2003 03:36:

To be totally honest, I have to remind myself over and over again to drive normal. I mean honestly when a good song is playing I drive faster and honestly when ure listening to trance and driving fast it just flows man. Then again its dangerous to drive fast so I just keep concious of that.

Posted by Shook1 on Aug-30-2003 04:51:

just another study trying to downplay electronic music. so if my music tells me to run people over , I'm gonna do that too??

Posted by whiskers on Aug-30-2003 05:03:

i once was listening to Airwave - When Things Go Wrong (2003 Remix) (you'll see the irony ) while parking, and, being absolutely oblivious to the things around me, accidentally pressed the gas pedal instead of the brakes... it was like 5 days after i got my license and it was my sister's brand new 2003 honda and i almost smashed it into a tree...

good thing my reaction was good and i hit the breaks even before i hit the curb.

i still listen to loud music but now i try to restrain myself from getting overly excited.

That made me LMAO.

In all seriousnees though, I am now officially on the look out for furious 120-beat-per-minute techno.
Note: "the techno" must be 120 BMP and furious. Lets hear some names ppl!

The only time music made me crash was when listening to Concord Dawn - Shinkansen - best bassline ever.. and it just made me angry.. i always crash when i'm angry... oh well.. still love that song.

for the love of trance!!

an online conversation between me and a dude:

me: atomixmp3
me: nothing beats a pair of techincs though
the other guy: are the computer softwares basically same as real turntables?
me: pffft absolutely not
the other guy: how r they different
me: it's like comparing real sex with masturbation with your left foot
me: sorry for the analogy
the other guy: haha
the other guy: becuz i havent seen real turntables in real life
me: most djs haven't
the other guy: ?
the other guy: how is that
me: well
me: they just haven't
me: they call themselves djs
me: and they don't know what vinyl is
me: most of them play off of CDs
the other guy: ic
the other guy: so how r real turntables different from what im using
me: well
me: it's hard to explain

HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN TO A SOMEONE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEN VIRTUAL DECKS AND IRL DECKS AT 2 AM???

i must get some of that music-making software and make a few super smash hits with it and become famous.

Fast, loud music contributes to dangerous driving, according to a study which suggests youngsters who listen to techno at the wheel are twice as likely to have an accident compared to those who listen to ballads.

HAHHAHAHA

it's BULLSHIT!

Ballads put yer ass to sleep and people laugh at yer ass at stoplights. Gotta have the tunes cranked to the max while driving to tune out...everyone else's crapass music. I always have top tunes with me, normally one of my endless supply of 2cd mixes from top deejays. Playing the end of World Service CD1 while the bass is cranked is great....

I must admit that I blame most of my speeding fines to techno music
