What 180 BPM feels like
One hundred and eighty BPM sits at the top end of common tempos — fast drum & bass, thrash and hardcore punk, and double-time technical practice. Heard as half-time it is a relaxed 90, which is how many of these fast tracks actually feel.
Common at 180 BPM
- Fast drum & bass
- Thrash & hardcore punk
- Speedcore (lower end)
- Sprint-tempo practice
Practise in the pocket, not on a grid
The big button above opens our online metronome already set to 180 BPM. Unlike a plain click, it can groove in named human feels — swing, the Dilla pocket, behind the beat — so 180 BPM can lope or push instead of marching. Not sure of your song's tempo? Tap it out and we'll read the BPM for you.
