Sign in to disble this ad
I need somes tunes which has the tempo of 80bpm and 140 bpm. I have a rhythm class in uni which requires the skill of spotting certain tempos, and it helps to have a song as a reference. I already have "Another one bites the dust" and "Billie Jean". That was all quite poorly explained, I know, but nevermind. |

For what it's worth, we have a song in my band that's at 83 bpm, and one that's at 147, but that doesn't really help you.

| | | | Ok, for those of you who are confused, I just need a song in 140 bpm and 80 bpm, prefereably ones which everyone would know. |

I doubt many people sit there with a metronome and count out 80 and 140 bpm songs with aspirations to one day be able to use that knowledge on an internet forum.

Anyhow, as far as examples go, for 140, I know Racer X's Scarified, Motorhead's Ace Of Spades, Rush's YYZ and Metallica's Call Of Ktulu are approximately @ q = 140 bpm. Will report back if I recall any 80 bpm songs.

| | | What do you mean? Of course I said tempos! 
And I've never heard a song annoounce it's tempo before... don't think I'll be able one techno song apart from any other though. It's the same speed as Ace of Spades and Call of Kthulu, so I can remember that.
Just need the 80 bpm now.
Also Mark, is that Justin Bieber? And why is he your avatar? Irony for the sake of irony? |

Numark Cue is expensive, but I would imagine there is freeware which would do this for you. Then you could simply burn it to CD.

| | | | Sorry. It's just that when people say "think of a song", I just can't think of anything. Much like when people say "tell a joke". |
