In this example, we have Darth and Vader with a glorious 128 BPM remix of Coming Alive by Vandalism and iKid.
Notice the crafty way they weave a 64 BPM dubstep drop at 3:40, then nimbly double back to 128 BPM.
Stay tuned for another lesson soon.

No no no - you've all missed the lesson here... 128 divided by 2, is 64. BUT...
64 times by 2 is 128!!!
The man's a genius. Truly.

it was intended for the idiots that think that 70 BPM dubstep is actually 140 BPM.

what is your problem, man? i think weīve been over this debate several times and iīd say that in fact the idiot is you for starting a thread so meaningless and with no good intentions at all. very helpful to the community as well... Originally Posted by loverocket
