#53This seems trivially easy to circumvent. For example, take your 3/4 song that's 160 bpm and call it a 6/8 song that's 80 bpm. Done.

#54Sounds so outlandish, but then this comes to mind how the UK tried to ban raves: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criminal_Justice_and_Public_... > Sections 63, 64 & 65 of the Act targeted electronic dance music played at raves. The Criminal Justice and Public Order Act empowered police to stop a rave in the open air when "ten or more people are attending, or where two or more are making preparations for a rave". Sect…

They just can't help them selves with the backronyms can they?! Politicians and the US military must spend a significant proportion of their time coming up with clever names.
Clever names seem like a waste of time but it’s one of the best things you can do if you want an idea to spread

#56This would make an amazing episode of Metalocalypse.
Where they show up to put on a show, and blast the audience with 200bpm death metal.
The front row catches fire. All clergy and politicians in a 30 mile radius have their heads explode.

Have you got a source for that interpretation? The announcement this article references does not support it.
This seemed so obviously fake that I went and checked the primary sources: https://tass-ru.translate.goog/obschestvo/20533041/amp?_x_tr...
It's interesting, but I don't think it really confirms either interpretation. This link is about what Kadyrov says about the announcement. Not the announcement/rule itself.
One click further leads to https://tass-ru.translate.goog/kultura/20461139?_x_tr_sl=ru&...
> "He announced the final decision, agreed with the head of the Chechen Republic Ramzan Akhmatovich Kadyrov, that from now on all musical, vocal and choreographic works must correspond to a tempo of 80 to 116 beats per minute,” he wrote on his page on social networks.
But again, it's all about commentary on something I can't find the actual primary source for.

I think Fantano has a pretty good vid that pretty much covers everything related to this. https://youtu.be/RvjDlaHLDWo?si=S4ux5J1ifPtMCVJ-

#59Back to Bach, I say. Outlaw the flat 5th and flat 7th, too /s None of that American "Jazz Music" allowed here.
Intervals are not flat or sharp. They are minor, major, perfect, etc. A 5th is a perfect interval. An inverted minor interval is a major interval. An inverted perfect interval is another perfect interval.
