What is BPM?
BPM stands for Beats Per Minute— it's the standard measurement of tempo in music. A higher BPM means a faster song. Most pop music ranges from 100-130 BPM, while electronic dance music (EDM) typically ranges from 120-150 BPM. Knowing a song's BPM is essential for DJing, music production, and exercise playlists.
Common BPM Ranges by Genre
- Hip-Hop: 60-100 BPM
- Pop: 100-130 BPM
- House: 120-130 BPM
- Techno: 125-150 BPM
- Drum & Bass: 160-180 BPM
How Our BPM Detector Works
SonicLab's BPM finder analyzes your audio using an onset detection algorithm. It calculates the energy envelope of the audio, identifies beat onsets (energy peaks), and then uses histogram-based tempo estimation to find the most likely BPM. The confidence indicator shows how consistent the detected beats are — higher confidence means a more reliable result.
