Well the only real reason to play at such high BPMs (aside from a fractured
thought-process) is to have more divisions of the beat. Instead of playing
on the 1 and 2 beat at 170 (about 1/2 of 357), he may play on the down beat
of each measure...but then when he wants to scare people, he can place an
extremely fast drum fill/crazy buzzy sounds in there because of the extreme
beat subdivision. 357 BPM IS A bit extreme, but then again we're talking
Tom Jenkinson here... I sometimes compose at 260 when I really want the
tune to be at 130 - for the reasons stated above...but 357? Only the Pusher
can get away with that.
Peace and hard beats
