I wonder if that's, where the "dubstep tempo" came from :roll:

Nah doubt it. If you look at the grimey dark garage that dubstep kinda evolved from it was all 140bpm anyway. Might have started out slower but when have you ever seen a DJ play with the decks at 0? People have been raving to 140bpm for time.

do you ever make your tunes at 145? I often mix into a tune I am making at home to see how the mix is and like Manray said hardly any1 mixes at 0
Don’t worry about people stealing an idea. If it’s original, you will have to ram it down their throats.

120-140... normally 140, but I've been known to forget to alter the tempo before starting and Ableton defaults to 120 :lol:

140 template in logic with drum + bass layers set up. On a sidenote does anyone know the average bpm of breakbeat (jet set radio future stuff)

I make sure that the BPM of all tracks i produce are divisible by (pi/pi)²

(pi/pi)^2 = 1. Yep those fractional bpm's can really mess you up when resampling :D

seems like everything is 140 or 142

I like a good challenge like...

Chase & Status - Running

it's at 135 bpm or something like that

fun times when you hit that mix right
