- Chechnya officials have banned music deemed too fast or slow, restricting compositions to a tempo of 80-116 BPM.
- Minister of Culture Musa Dadayev announced the decision at a meeting, as reported by TASS.
- The ban affects all musical, vocal, and choreographic compositions in the Russian Republic of Chechnya.
Chechnya is a republic of Russia since losing the Second Chechen War but this means that the Russian national anthem, at just 76 BPM, is also banned.
Sounds like that Chechnyian Dictator is about to bring back Disco to his clubs, you can still make dance music at 116 BPM (the peak of his restriction):
