Subject: RE: 78-85 BPM and 156 - 170 BPM Music... Interesting post. Standard Ibiza style dance mix stuff is between 120-150 beats per minute, and there is data to suggest this tempo of music is appealing because it mimmics the heart rate of a person dancing to it, and- somewhat interestingly- the same heart rate of a person having vigorous sex. Hence the connection between dance, exercise and sex. Heart rates during each of these key activities are similar. iTunes has a ton of playlists and compilations that list their tempo in beats per minute. If you are so motivated, you can also buy your own equipment to mix your own stuff. |
