120 BPM (Beats Per Minute)

Movies watched in 2024

120 BPM (Beats Per Minute) (2017, France)

Director: Robin Campillo

Writers: Robin Campillo & Philippe Mangeot

Mini-review:

What a powerful and impactful film. It left me both floored and speechless. I think it should be mandatory watching for younger queer generations, cause it feels like many of them have forgotten what our predecessors had to go through to build the society we currently live in (even if there still are many things to fix). It's definitely a hard, painful watch, but trust me when I tell you this: it's absolutely worth it. And even if you're not interested in these topics, the movie is superbly directed, written and acted. It's clear that everyone involved set out to give this story the special film it deserved. And thanks to them, I won't forget about 120 BPM anytime soon.

Understand Beats Per Minute (BPM) in Relation to Heart Health: Everything You Need to Know

Beats per minute is more important in knowing the concept when trying to prevent or protect against cardiovascular diseases. BPM measures the number of times the heart beats within a minute and denotes the real cardiovascular health condition. These words will definitely take a different meaning to different people, whether it be in the context of monitoring heart rates for fitness or stress…

At the "Dusty Desert Sound Festival" there's a very peculiar DJ tonight. He's know for a very different show that happens each time during his parties, he calls it: "the cardio-beat dance". After a couple of hours from the beginning of the party he takes a volunteer, places it in front of the "Beats Wall" and puts an electode and a sthethoscope on her/his chest. The volunteer's heartbeat is used as a bance for an improvised mix. A beating heart is projected on the volunteer's chest, more or less in the correct anatomical position, reporting the beats per minute to give "see through" idea. The volunteer remains in front of the wall for some time while the audience dances to the rhythm of his/her heartbeat.

Simòne waited for that moment the whole night, doing anything to speed up her heart rate. She jumped, screamed, drunk, took stimulants... anything. When the time came she was so wild the DJ obviously chose her. Even before the steth and the electrode were placed anyone know it would have been something extreme just by looking at how her chest was throbbing.

"Wow, more than 200 bpm! unbelievable, baby!! We have a crazy lady here!!" Exclaimed the DJ when her heartbeat appeared on her chest.

The party went wild with the whole audience dancing at such a crazy rhythm.

(what's not said is that by exhausting so much her heart like this, Simòne had major arrhythmias for a month after the party)

House is a music genre characterized by a repetitive four-on-the-floor beat and a typical tempo of 120 beats per minute as a re-emergence of 1970's disco. It was created by DJs and music producers from Chicago's underground club culture and evolved slowly in the early/mid 1980s, and as DJs began altering disco songs to give them a more mechanical beat. By early 1988, House became mainstream and supplanted the typical 80s music beat

House was created and pioneered by DJs and producers in Chicago such as Frankie Knuckles, Ron Hardy, Jesse Saunders, Chip E., Joe Smooth, Steve "Silk" Hurley, Farley "Jackmaster" Funk, Marshall Jefferson, Phuture, and others. House music initially expanded internationally, to London, then to other American cities, such as New York City, and ultimately a worldwide phenomenon.

In its most typical form, the genre is characterized by repetitive 4/4rhythms including bass drums, off-beat hi-hats, snare drums, claps, and/or snaps at a tempo of between 120 and 130 beats per minute (bpm); synthesizerriffs; deep basslines; and often, but not necessarily, sung, spoken or sampled vocals. In house, the bass drum is usually sounded on beats one, two, three, and four, and the snare drum, claps, or other higher-pitched percussion on beats two and four. The drum beats in house music are almost always provided by an electronic drum machine, often a Roland TR-808, TR-909, or a TR-707. Claps, shakers, snare drum, or hi-hat sounds are used to add syncopation. One of the signature rhythm riffs, especially in early Chicago house, is built on the clave pattern. Congas and bongos may be added for an African sound, or metallic percussion for a Latin feel

One book from 2009 states the name "house music" originated from a Chicago club called the Warehouse that was open from 1977 to 1982. Clubbers to the Warehouse were primarily African, gay men, who came to dance to music played by the club's resident DJ, Frankie Knuckles, who fans refer to as the "godfather of house". Frankie began the trend of splicing together different records when he found that the records he had were not long enough to satisfy his audience of dancers. After the Warehouse closed in 1983, eventually the crowds went to Knuckles' new club, The Power House, later to be called The Power Plant, and the club was renamed, yet again, into Music Box with Ron Hardy as the resident DJ. The 1986 documentary, "House Music in Chicago", by filmmaker, Phil Ranstrom, captured opening night at The Power House, and stands as the only film or video to capture a young Frankie Knuckles in this early era, right after his departure from The Warehouse. 

In the Channel 4 documentary Pump Up the Volume, Knuckles remarks that the first time he heard the term "house music" was upon seeing "we play house music" on a sign in the window of a bar on Chicago's South Side. One of the people in the car joked, "you know that's the kind of music you play down at the Warehouse!" In self-published statements, South-Side Chicago DJ Leonard "Remix" Rroy claimed he put such a sign in a tavern window because it was where he played music that one might find in one's home; in his case, it referred to his mother's soul and disco records, which he worked into his sets

I go between sending you & breezy asks, but I know y'all will both see it at some point lmaooo

anywho. I'm in nursing school round 2 (i'm an lvn/lpn currently) to get my BSN and this week our sim lab instructor is going to run codes with us. because I'm me, I decided to make a CPR playlist because duh. and so I'm going through my music library and there's actually several BO songs that would work based on the AHA's CPR beats per minute guideline (100-120 bpm) 😂 THE DRAIN, V.A.N, Limits, Kingdom of Cards, Malice, IDWT$, Dethrone, What do you want from me?, and Glass Houses are the ones for anyone curious lol

You know, that’s actually really cool!!

Playlists make everything better honestly.

monster high fans!! especially monster high fans who like jackson and holt!!

so, it’s come to my attention that a lot of people don’t actually understand the canon reasons that the transformation takes place, and that’s okay, don’t worry! not everyone has a musical education, so i’ll just write you guys up a post so that you can understand the same way that us musicians do! <3

first of all, let’s recap the exact reason for the transformation, stated multiple times in canon material: music with a 4/4 time signature played in excess of 90 decibels.

let’s break this down!

starting with the 90 decibels, so we can leave the more complicated stuff for later:

90 decibels is the noise level at which you are advised to begin wearing protection. it is about the sound of a leaf blower or an average concert (the writers did a good job googling for this one!).

(HoH!J&H headacanoners, come get your food 😉)

however, since this is a requirement for the transformation, jackson can listen to any 4/4 music that is under 90 decibels! which is cool, but also contradicts webisode and movie material… i mean, come on, clawd’s phone is at most, an iphone 5, which only plays music at 81.5 dB (though modern iphones play up to 115 dB, so I guess that we can just call their technology ahead of their time? lol).

headphones can reach up to 100 dB, so i’m not surprised that j&h’s transformation is triggered using them.

anyway! most of the time, music is not played in excess of 90 dB. therefore, jackson can listen to anything he wants without jeopardizing his existence so long as he remains within a certain degree of sound. yay! jackson can still be an emo boy

secondly! a 4/4 time signature. now, what does this mean?

a lot of people get confused and figure that a time signature is referring to the BPM (beats per minute) of a song. while BPM is used in music, it is not used in this way. common BPMs for modern music are between 60 BPM (reggae) to 290 BPM (charleston dance music), though the average top range of BPM is around 160-180 BPM.

none of that matters to jackson! the BPM of a song has zero affect on whether or not they will transform, so again, jackson can listen to whatever music he wants to.

now, what is a time signature, then, if it isn’t the BPM.

well…

the time signature is the amount of beats by the kind of beats in each measure. so, for jackson, it would be four (numerator) quarter notes (denominator) per measure: a 4/4 time signature!

most songs are in 4/4 nowadays, because it’s just very common and easy to wrap your head around. however, there are some popular songs that are in other time signatures, for example:

- Nothing Else Matters - Metallica (3/4 Time Signature)

- When the Party’s Over - Billie Eilish (3/4)

- Idontwannabeyouanymore - Billie Eilish (3/4)

- I Love Rock ‘n’ Roll - Joan Jett and The Blackhearts (2/4)

- Baa Baa Blacksheep and The Wheels on the Bus ;) (kidding, but they are in 2/4)

So, i just guess that my point is that Jackson does not need to go completely without music. He has a lot of music that he can listen to in a lot of situations, as per the laws of canon.

I hope you enjoyed and that this was maybe a bit informative! Feel free to come scream about J&H with me at any time :)

My heart can fill a pool in under 6 minutes

Winding myself up today, I crunched some numbers to calculate my cardiac output on the run I'm trying to motivate myself to do. Same run I do almost every day (I'm sleepy haha).

My heart is outputting about 33 liters per minute. (I sit at 170 bpm with a max of 178, and my maximum cardiac output is ~40). It's filling a 2 liter of soda every 10 beats, or just over every 3 seconds. It fills a kiddie pool in about 6 minutes, so on my 20 minute run it fills 3 and a third pools.

And I do that nearly every day before I lift.

No wonder this is what my heart looks like next to a healthy person's. Fun side note, I just figured out a normal short axis stack is done in 10 slices, but mine is 12. As in, my heart was too long to image normally.

God I'm obsessed. Hope yall don't mind.
