BPM's

well dubstep is really about 70 since it's played half-time at 140. So it's really 70 with divisions up to 32nd notes.

Half-time in this context is really just snare placement more than anything. It still has a pulse every 140th of a minute.

Plus, for ease and consistency in producing/DJing, I consider anything below 100 bpm to be double what it is.

I have had similar arguments with my musicology friend about the difference between 3/4 and 6/8.

I try not to talk to him about music anymore.

Oh, the old 3/4 vs 6/8 thing. Both of them have 6 eighth notes. 3/4 has three beats, 6/8 has two. Done.
