...did you guys know that the definition of dickspeed as we know it is in Urban Dictionary? The definition might need a slight update though -- 1400 isn't considered that fast anymore.

I think a good definition to dickspeed would be any speed that can play 2 or 3 beats and make them sound as if they were just one (aka "anything after 2800").
Btw, wtf is this site?

I've had things sound like one at tempo 800 before Maybe the "correct" definition would include the "auditory illusion" that tEG and Satoshi and I were talking about in July 2008ish...

Umm, 2 adjacent beats can sound as one at tempos as low as 1400. At 1400 two beats doesn't sound so "one beat" for my ears... I mean, some instruments can sound very simultaneous at this tempo, but others do not, like gameboy + heart, mario + heart, and instruments with a high attack.

The more going on in a song, the more you can get away with in regards to how precise it sounds. If you want an example, this uses a tempo of 1435.

I think we should just agree that dickspeed is a technique rather than a tempo.
