Hmm, I would say BPM is irrelivant in a lot of 'IDM' for
example I was working at 125 bpm when I made this
but you would never have though it.

rough criteria:

60-80 R'n'B
80-110 - Rap
110-120 - Rock
120-135 - House
135 - 150 - Trance
145 - 165 - You have to be on crack to enjoy.

this thread reminds me of what J.Hendrix once said

"talking about music is like cutting ocean waves"

maybe not about music - about bpm classification, it makes
me nervous. Dear Miss Undead, what a topic is this ??
