sariman Posted June 13 Report Share Posted June 13 So what's your oppinion? Do you think music is getting faster... and if so is there such a thing as too fast? I read an artical in Mixmag not too long ago stating how people like Moby have steadly increased there beats per minute in each new cd. On the other hand bands like the chemical brothers and leftfield have been slowing down. Sure these are main stream groups, but I'd like to know what people think. Are there still as many "trance-heads" that enjoy there music at 110 or is most of the culture moving into the more progressive 130, 140, or even high range? Thoughts?BTW: hope all the people I know are doing well. been awhile since I posted around here. Europe was a blast now I'm trying to lay some life foundations in Detroit! Yes, yes, that's the getto capital of the world, but also the birthplace of the dance scene... IMHO. (Even if it seems to have abandoned it's roots)------------------ [This message has been edited by sariman (edited 06-13-2001).][This message has been edited by sariman (edited 06-13-2001).][This message has been edited by sariman (edited 06-13-2001).] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

furnace Posted June 13 Report Share Posted June 13 Yo Ben!You back from Europe already? I thought you were gonna be there all summer.Yeah, it seems BPM is getting higher. However, I think that trance BPM is faster than progressive...just listen to any of the NuBreeders, Tenaglia, or Digweed. Slow and spacey. In fact, that's what Myrlin, Ezdreamer, and Shadowchaser complain about the NuBreeders' sets...too slow, never picked up, never climaxed.I for one, like the slower BPM.You in Detroit now?-Den------------------ "Much respect...to the dreamers..."

But I don't think trance is dead by any means... it's getting more progressive. You see more tracks these days that are mixes of genere's. The body has elements of trance, tribal, and tech-house all mixed together with trancey breaks and climaxes, but with tech-house style transitions. I think BPM is getting faster, but I think it will stop around where it is now and most producers will just get more inventive with their mixing bringing in elements from all over.------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
