They couldn’t even make it higher than the DAW defaults at 120bpm. So you have new musicians that have never recorded accidentally producing music at 120 and breaking the law. This is the dumbest shit I’ve seen since last week. I don’t typically put anything together that is below 120. Looks like I’m on my way to being a Chechen fugitive.

It just feels like a conservative one party government trying to fill in time before the next election with busy work.

Nothing pleases social conservatives more than cracking down on that weird music their kids listen to.

This is memeable, yes; but usually when news like this starts coming out a nation shit’s definitely gone sideways for it.

80 to 116 BPM. I actually chuckled audibly that the BPM was specified, I assumed it would be extremely vague.
