I started out producing at 140 as I felt, imo, that this was a balancing tempo for the dancefloor - keeping everyone jiggin away but not wearing them out on those long hauls that can happen of a weekend....:briggin:

Now I am swaying much more towards 135 as this allows me much more room to put the groove n wiggle in to play... am finding much more space to fill each sound out to it's full potential, without being minimal...

Aha again...

This is interesting as a friend produces at 147 to play live at the acid techno parties down here n this seems to be the perfect not too slow/ not too fast tempo, for his style, which gets the crowd really going of four o'clock in the morning...:briggin:

Different measures for different times as well as for different folks eh... :)

why? isnt this thread merly making new boundries for what is and what isnt something?

**dan the acid man** · 23-11-2006, 01:30 PM

exactly, do what you want to do, when you want to do it, and just hope some other people enjoy it as much as you

He was asking a perfectly legitimate question dude.

But then again thats the sort of answer we've come to expect from you. isnt it.

if you dont wanna contribute positivly - piss off somewhere else.

And you can land one in my face for that, because ill get up and say it again.

**RDR** · 23-11-2006, 08:44 PM

And you know, thats what i've come to expect from the london crowd (no offence to the innocent eh...) elitist, retentive and un-helpful.

**RDR** · 23-11-2006, 08:45 PM

On the other hand i take your point about boundaries.

Difference is "I" dont have any.
