Speed Limit 140 BPM+

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Speed Limit 140 BPM+ is a series of hardcore techno and drum and bass music compilation albums, released mostly in the mid-1990s. The series was put out by Moonshine Music, some under the name of its subsidiary Planet Earth. Well-known DJ Dave Audé was the producer for the albums.

As the name suggests, all have music over 140 beats per minute, though some are surprisingly mellow given the high-speed bassline. The series featured artists such as Omni Trio, 2 Bad Mice, DJ Hype, and Metalheads.
