don't hate the player, hate the game. :lol:

anyway, I do troll from time to time, fueling things for fun when I feel like total idiocy prevails (in me or in the thread). Don't take it too personally.

Seems like quite a lot of people do it too, but mostly under pseudonyms. I'm just not that afraid to look like an arse.

Trip-Hop - 70-90BPM

(added a few more i found)
discuss :wink:
Don't know what you searched and how you specify each style, but now it just looks like you went thru some roland groovebox 303 banks... :uhuhuh:

Jungle is definitely 160 (in some rare, but awesome cases ranging around 150-168) if you mean the style of music that was the one to turn to drum'n'bass eventually.

R'n'B 100? That's a pretty tight classification considering you can mean anything from early sixties pre-soul to near rap modern hiphop r'n'b. 40-160, not 100.

Trip hop. Remember tricky and the likes? or massive attack. or chemical brothers. It was this lot who are pretty much the forefathers of triphop. Especially tricky had some extremely slow grooves, and chemical brothers faster, although here we start to deviate to big beat as well. 40-140

See why these lists are completely useless?
listen prick, i got that info from various websites, its their definitions not mine, hence the word discuss at the botoom...you can read yes?


twat :roll:

as for the chemical brothers being trip hop, you need a lesson in musical history. (trip hop was actually the 'bristol sound')

calm down mom, I did discuss didn't I?

wether you liked my additions is a whole another case.

was, originally, should've been, [insert another deviation here]... see here's just another reason why these lists are just about useless. Looks like you want to be truly pedantic, and bristolian, about trip hop. I don't. I'm very sorry if it doesn't fit your history books, but chemical bros was filed under trip hop during their early times, just like fat boy slim. This was before those things deviated to get their own genres. I remember DJ's weren't sure what to call that music back then.

Not true, they were big beat, even when they were called the dust brothers.

I was asking for a generally agreed bpm for specific genres, with an agreed variable.

The trouble is, BPM varies pretty broadly over time and across subgenres, so 'what bpm is techno' doesn't really make much sense if you plan to include everything from classic Detroit to hard banging german stuff.

Gah. I've just been trying to find that old ardkore cover (I think it was 4 hero) with the cartoon about the dangers of trying to fuse hip hop and house and reaching 135 bpm, and wasted ten minutes to no avail...

It depends how oldskool - early 2 Bad Mice is about 125 iirc.
