Psytrance BPM

How fast, and who says so

Where the two sources overlap: 138–148 BPM. Each in its own words:

• Wikipedia, Psychedelic trance: 125–150 BPM
• Bonedo, Psytrance produzieren (2025): 138–148 BPM

The groove on this page

Psytrance is built on the rolling bassline: the kick takes the first 16th of each beat and a short bass note takes the other three, so the low end is one unbroken stream and the kick has to be short and tight to leave room. The groove here does that on a sub bass. Full-on sits in the 140s; darker styles start around 150 and Bonedo's workshop names everything from 100 to 200 at the edges.

On this page: the app's Frost kit at 145 BPM, straight 16ths, with the Sub bass sound.

Delay and LFO values

A delay in time with the track repeats once per note value: a quarter note lasts 60,000 divided by the BPM, in milliseconds. Dotted is one and a half times that, triplet two thirds. An LFO synced to a note value cycles at 1,000 divided by those milliseconds, in Hz. The table follows the tempo above: − and + move it, and so does a tempo you tap.

Genres near this tempo

• Dubstep: 135–142 BPM
• Trance: 130–150 BPM
• Breakbeat: 110–175 BPM
• Hardstyle: about 150 BPM

Then make something of it

The door opens Brumm, a club track with a beat and a bass, with this groove's low end in it. The app runs between 90 and 150 BPM, so a faster or slower tempo goes in at half or double. No account, no upload: it travels inside the link. Hum a line over it, and it becomes an instrument.

Nothing is recorded: no microphone, only your taps, counted in the browser. The groove's sounds are the app's own samples, fetched when you tap Play. How the site counts visits.
