Originally posted by SYSTEM-J Plastikman just sounds like trippy, minimal acid to me. As for that stuff, it doesn't particularly obey musical rules. You could say that it doesn't have a BPM, rather than having 0 BPM, because any value of BPM implies a rhythm.

most if not all plastikman tracks have a fixed identifiable bpm

Originally posted by nefardec this is like considering architecture by how high above sea level it is.

no it isn't... not remotely. sticking with that analogy, it's akin to merely stating the optimum altitude for certain types of architecture; not judging them based on said altitude. likewise, no-one's saying a tune's bpm counts for how good it is.. they're just either a) stating the speed they mostly prefer to play stuff at, or b) estimating the average speed of the majority of stuff they like.

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

It's been the other way round to me: I now like stuff ranging 250~300 BPM

Originally posted by Psy-T no, in all likeliness that '75bpm' piece would still be a 150bpm piece in reality, regardless of the fact it was written at half that tempo. dividing the tempo yet at the same time multiplying the number of beats to the same number carries little significance to the tempo of a track.

hmm... it depends. You'd have some problems if you took the bars/measures into consideration, for example.

it's not often that you're presented with bars & other measures when listening to vinyls or audio cd's/mp3's now, is it?

I haven't heard the tunes in this particular website, but you can see some samples of speedcore right here.

As for the 250-300 BPM range, I was talking about Hardcore Punk, actually, which is not exactly EDM
