Authorities in the Russian Republic of Chechnya have announced a ban on music that they consider too fast or slow.
So really just free reign to ban any music they want then? Or are the police going to walk around with metronomes to check the bpm of random songs? Lol
Arbitrary law is arbitrary.
This sucks. I’m not even allowed to play my tiny violin!
Just play faster, but not TOO fast.
.
I didn’t realise that self-proclaimed badass Kadyrov looks like a stereotypical Walmart fat ass 😂
There are videos where professional MMA fighters let him and his son beat them up.
Hilarious shit if you overlook the torture and other human rights violations this traitorous pos loves to do.
You playing music too fast? Believe it or not jail.
Playing too slow? Jail. Under-BPM, over-BPM.
We have the best musicians in the world… because of jail.
I’m not sure this actually does what he wants it to do. Im assuming, he wants to hear only cultural music but…
I mean at 110 bpm they still get Wannabe by the Spice Girls and Dr Feelgood by Motley Crew, I’m a Slave 4 U by Britney, some Public Enemy and Daft Punk, and I’m Coming Out by Diana Ross.
At 80, they still get Gangstas Paradise by Coolio, some Matchbox 20, Radiohead, Judas Priest, and TLC…and Doin Time by Sublime, which is appropriate, I guess.
It’s not like all pop music has one tempo…
Coolio, the traditional Chechen artist
No! Not the disco!!! Not like that!
They’re going to make a panic at the disco
LOL. Just sell slowed down music there then, to be exactly 116 per minute. Then people will create apps that will use API to make music play faster depending on title. Futile efforts that will only affect publicly played music which nobody listens
Nice! All my G-Funk and Drill shit still in
it’s not music, it’s sound art
So no more playing DJ Screw in my convertible during my roadtrip in Chechnya.
USA bans Palestinians from the right to life.
Now that could make for a great headline, CNN. Go ahead, but Joe Biden could get your head sliced for it.
That would be an odd headline choice for a story about a new law regulating music tempo in Chechnya.
