87 BPM is exactly half of 174, the home tempo of drum and bass. That makes it a useful tempo twice over: a slow groove on its own, or the half-time feel of a fast track.
Where 87 BPM music works
- slow-motion cuts of fast action;
- relaxed hip-hop and lofi backgrounds;
- game trailers that switch between calm and intense;
- night drives and moody city footage.
Two speeds in one tempo
Producers often write drum and bass at 174 BPM over a half-time groove of 87, so the same music can feel calm or urgent depending on the drums. At 87 on its own it works like a slow hip-hop or downtempo beat.
