About 140 BPM
140 BPM enters the Allegro territory - fast, lively, and full of energy. This is the tempo where music truly comes alive with forward momentum. Classical composers used Allegro as one of their most common tempo markings, and for good reason: it's the speed at which musical passages feel both exciting and achievable for skilled performers.
Music at 140 BPM
140 BPM is a powerhouse tempo across genres. It's the sweet spot for dubstep and drum & bass (when counted in half-time), as well as fast jazz swing, bebop, and uptempo country. Punk rock and pop-punk frequently lock into this tempo for its driving, relentless energy. Many classic rock and blues-rock tracks also sit right around 140 BPM when the band wants to get the crowd on their feet.
