im not saying that this 150 music is going to be "dubstep"
im trying to stray OUT of the box, not stay in it.

nope.
majority of dubstep i've heard that's up around 150 is all tearout, OH MY GOD MY FACE IS MELTING stuff. it touches 1 emotion, only that one, and then the next tune does the same exact thing.
If i'm wrong, point me to a mix or collection of tracks that proves me wrong. would love the knowledge.
otherwise... 150 occupies an odd space these days, along the lines of 120. sure, house spent a long time around 120 but these days, the majority is 10 bpm faster. 150 was hardcore and jungle, but as both sped up (and up...and up... and up...) it became abandoned as this nether region in which stylistic bits from the previous genre's don't fit.
so. show me some good 150. again, the only interesting stuff @ 150 that i've heard out of electronic music is reggae and remixes of reggae.

not feeling 150 at all tbh, seems too pulsing and un-groovy for dubstep but doesnt have the nice feel u can get 160-170 with dnb. Personally i wouldnt want to go any higher than 144 apart from dnb. 138 is the nicest tempo out imo tho

Hmmmm nah i'm more partial to slowing stuff down. I know there's some around 142/145 lately but any faster than that and it loses something IMO, including the space. It's like when dnb and jungle moved from 140ish all the way up to 185+ these days. Thankfully it's slowing down again! Plenty of room for people to make faster stuff if they want, but I don't really like it faster when it comes to dubstep.

When i brought in some delay and synced it to 140 it all sounded wrong. I then realised that i hadn't changed Sonars default BPM setting which is at 110. The track sounded ok though and had some nice swing to it.
MPC swing at around 100-110 makes girls strip down to thongs and shake their rumps without even thinking about it.
nice. Any jungle in guy??? Jungle / Oldskool hardcore used to be at 150 - 160bpm. correct me if im wrong

once again, im not saying it is DUBSTEP at all, just a different form of dance music.
man this thread is
for people who are supposed to be open to diverse music, there sure is a lot of stonewalling going on.

PANTyRAID makes some more uptempo dubstep sounding tracks. checkout "beba" and "get the money" on junodownload. both tracks are dope and definitely not "tearout".

i'd rather stick to 140, 138 being the bpm of choice atm, but personally i wouldn't go further than 142, however i'm another one into slowin down things instead of making them faster, so 135/6 sounds interresting and i'm definitely gonna try it.
and come on let's face it - music styles HAVE TO have some boundaries.

exactly, its a new genre that no one i knowis playing!!
our town is full of dnb heads that think dubstep is too slow, so why not start making a 150bpm genre that has influence from dubstep and dnb ??? i know its been happening already, but i would personally love to play a set of 150bpm shenanigans.
i also love the slower stuff too but people like to RAGE! around here, and who am i to say its gotta be 140 or i am goin home?
<<heads to reason, sets bpm to 150>>

I heard a song called "Hard Nurples" that was 150 and AMAZING in fact my mind was blown when it was finished and I rushed to congratulate the artist.
It was not tearout at ALL. In fact it was chilled and had a very memorable clean guitar melody in it.
The only problem is the artist was labeled "Audiovoid" and his reply to my congratulations letter was to say that it was mis-labeled and by somebody else! And now I can't remember who, cos the email account that conversation took place in was deleted!

Soundcloud
There ^^^
Couldn't find anything anywhere about this song, so I uploaded it for ya'll.
I'll share it for a few days but then take it down as courtesy to the artist. I think it's a great example of a dubstep song that is a-typical in myriad ways.
154 Bpm
Featuring a wobble that is not the main focus
Clean guitar riff carries the song, I can't think of another tune that is like this (at least by any of the big boys)
