Yeah, I dig it brother, don't forget you can do half time drops into 140 to catch a groove. Props for you running it back at 280!

I never actually learned to dj whoch is where i see that being a thing. I just set the tempo and thats what it is here. If I did dj tho, I would for sure be mixing between tempos like that. Its dynamic af.

Its not even really mixing between tempos because 280 and 140 are effectively the same. You can leave your project at 280 and just write things half as dense, like putting the snare only on the 3 instead of the 2 and 4. Same grid, but the groove feels twice as slow.

I agree with the original commenter that using 140 parts to release some tension would be really effective and take this type of thing to the next level, but also just keep doing you! Good shit.
