OK, so Moby just barely scrapes this at 16.6666 Hz.... (1000 BPM / 60 sec. per minute) Get our your sound software, sequencers, and calculators, kids... 60 seconds * 20 Hz = 1200 BPM. First person to achieve a song with a beat rate just under this gets to wear the More Hardcore Than Hardcore crown. First person to actually create a successful dance to this has me treat him/her to lunch. ======================================================================= Brian MacDonald <brianm@kuci.org> KUCI 88.9 fM in Irvine, CA -- Orange County "I FOCUSED...
