    This is the best summary I could come up with:

    The Russian republic is said to have ruled that all music should “correspond to a tempo of 80 to 116 beats per minute (BPM)”.

    Its culture ministry made the announcement in a statement earlier this week, according to the Moscow Times.

    “Borrowing musical culture from other peoples is inadmissible,” Mr Dadayev reportedly said.

    The ban was reportedly announced following a meeting between the republic’s ministry and local and regional artists.

    All western rave and techno music, which tends to be of a higher BPM, would be banned under the new rule.
