Your favorite BPM speed

So, I'm a bit bored today and thought I'd ask you people what would be your preference when it comes to BPM speed in EDM.

When DJ-ing or partying my favorite tempo would be around 145 BPM mark. I got hooked on trance around 1992/1993 when 170 bpm trance was quite common so I am always loooking for that kind of energy in my "partying" music. The quality 170bpm tunes is basically non-existant these days though (Not too impressed with the freeform music or whatever it is called)..

However, when it comes to just listening music everything goes as I find all genres and styles has something to offer at certain times.


My experience as a DJ these days tell me that 145 bpm is a bit much for the common club dance floor (you really need to build it up well) although every once in a while you get a crowd that just goes mental when they are offered anything above 142...

Can't really say it matters. Though I've noticed that the older I get the lower I like my BPM's... eep.
