People in the north of the UK listen to music with more beats per minute (bpm) than those in the south, a survey by a music magazine has suggested. There is a difference of 110bpm between Scotland and the south of England, according to Uncut magazine.
Music bought and listened to in Scotland has an average speed of 190bpm, but only 80bpm in Cornwall.
London has a relatively relaxed average of 90bpm, while it increases to 160bpm in Hull.

might explain why dnb is so big round here, and things like trance arents as popular. anyways i dont know what to make of the statistics but it intruiged me so thought i’d share

techno and trance are my prefered styles, but dnb and freeform are good, you just tend to get alot less played at parties round here, and so far none at ours.

some speedcore and stuff just takes the piss tho, simply to fast.
