I use mostly 160bpm. I?m making hardNRG trance at the time. I don?t go under 150bpm or over 175bpm.

since i pretty much only make dnb beatz i'm in the 165-175 range. usually start at 170 and then adjust from there if i need to.

in my last band the dude who wrote the songs seemed to have some sense of the difference between 1 BPM +/- which i never grasped. he would sit and stare while listening to the songs and then be like "hmm, no needs one more BPM up." and then we would change it and it would sound any different to me but he seemed to feel it made a difference.

i still cant tell if he just had an unnatural ability to split hares on BPM or was just doing it to do it.

I usually float around 20-40bpm. Ambient demands notes and chords held for 16-32 bars, so its annoying to handle at 140bpm.

Well, to be honest, I don't really think there's something called a "perfect sense for bpm", like there are people with a sense for perfect pitch.
