What BPM do you prefer for clubs, warehouses, or your house?

generally I prefer 136-142 for clubs/raves/concerts

and for chilling at home or something that is not an epic event, I prefer playing songs at their default BPM.

whenever I compare the original with a video that was recorded live, the one recorded live always has a faster feel to it....

most songs are sped up at raves/concerts/clubs right?

I don't have a watch, it's a BPM counter. If the musics amazing but .5 out, I leave.

i usually play the songs at the same bpm, if i am going to mix a 128 bpm tune with a 132 bpm tune then i'd leave it at 129 or so from the start and increase it smoothly. Excluding some tracks that really sound better played faster/slower you should leave it as it is, i see a lot of local djs who pitch all the tracks at +3% with master tempo, poor idiots, thats the reason they trainwreck so often, the whole dinamics of the kick are screwed due to the stretching

For clubs it depends of the atmosphere, i can accept pretty much everything from 126 to 140.

There are some areas in the clubs like a lounge that plays some Chill Out, is very cool.

But for raves, only 145
