Authorities in the Russian Republic of Chechnya have announced a ban on music that they consider too fast or slow.
80 to 116 BPM. I actually chuckled audibly that the BPM was specified, I assumed it would be extremely vague.
Not even Nazi Germany or Stalin’s Soviet Union had this arbitrary and stupid of a music ban.
Isis and taliban do tho. Chechnya is primarily muslim. But yea, another sign russia has become a dystopian nightmare
Doesn’t the IS make music propaganda videos?
It’s not music they’re nasheeds (nasheeds r banger asf)
A nasheed (Arabic: نَشِيد, romanized: nashīd, lit. ‘chant’, plural Arabic: أَنَاشِيد, romanized: anāshīd) is a work of vocal music, partially coincident with hymns, that is either sung a cappella or with instruments, according to a particular style or tradition within Sunni Islam.
Yeah that’s the one
A nasheed … is a work of vocal music
Yep thats the definition

Good old XcQ link
Welp, there goes all the phonk music
No! What will Hakari do?
This is memeable, yes; but usually when news like this starts coming out a nation shit’s definitely gone sideways for it.
Eastern Europe is going though it right now. One of my old Polish colleagues fled to the UK becuase the Church is slowly taking over and becoming totalitarian. Even if you have a miscarriage you’d be investigated to see if “it was done on purpose” or not.
(From what I remember, this was just at the tail end of covid)
Music too fast? Straight to jail.
Music too slow? Believe it or not, straight to jail.
their president is stupid as fuck
