Interesting responses. The holy grail for me will be to write a piece with two different tempos, but I have no idea how to pull that off in my DAW. Maybe someday.
I was born in 64 (1964 not 1864) so I tend to use 64 most tho my wife was born in 66 so that gets a lot of use too. Great musical reasoning there!! Strangely when using patterning in AUM, if I open patterning and start it running my synced hardware runs at 64, however, if I set AUM’s internal clock to 64bpm my synced hardware runs at 128bpm (although patterning runs at 64 still). Have tried to suss out why this is. No joy.
Well I do some 150 bpm.
I actually use things like Sector with 75 BPM or some 75 loops in it.
Just a kind of idea on the periphery of what you are suggesting.
Its just math. But you know that.

Interestingly, hemisync and other effects like that, coupled with the right-ear advantage (REA) effect in dichotic listening tests [1] are partly why I left my job as a college lecturer in 2014 to start up a startup and proceed to totally run out of money, and further, experimenting in audio VR. At least I got this idea out of it [2] (and released a Christmas single and a new year single, when things were dire, the first time they were dire, there would be more dire to come).
Actually, I was thinking about people who were experimenting with heartbeat rates and other cycles, to try and make their music more ‘natural’ or ‘acceptable’ or ‘stimulating’ by matching the bpm to the body’s natural cycles such as that. Breathing rates vary very widely, so that’s not a good candidate, but heart rates are not such a wide variance.

106 bpm
It's the closest I'll get!
92.
I remember reading an article about some African tribal musicians that play a single beat, once a year. That's 1 BPY.
The idea is that it creates a rhythm that spans years and years. Like a universal heartbeat (respect to Juliana Hatfield).
+1 because it's a multiple of the answer to the universe.

Are all acceptable tempos.

"It has a good beat and you can dance to it."

Yeah, it's really creepy!
I mean with loud enough kick-drum the heart follows quite easily after a while.
An effective example of this is the use of music during exercise...
Same with the beat-frequencies on both sides of the listener. At slower rates it can cause people to 'wave' to the beat of the music without them realising they are being 'frequency manipulated'. And causing dizziness with 3D placement of sounds when using head-phones is pretty weird too...
40 to 80 maximum
Allegro
Any tempo really, I just avoid 4/4.
Interesting stuff for sure.
Would love to hear more about your work.
Maybe a thread and the whole story.
Maybe you can make it finally happen!
Maybe now is the right time?
I just tap tempo every time. Sometimes I make a whole track without ever knowing the tempo
137 for power-pop hits (or would-be hits if this was 1977-83)

I record at a lower tempo than I compose and arrange at, and then I bump it up a touch when I consider it ready. For example, (and this is typical for me) I start at 97, but for entering a passage of notes with record on, I’ll do that at something like 60-ish/70-ish, then back to 97 for listening to it and firtling with it. Then as the song starts to qualify as an actual song, I’ll bump it higher (in the case of the two I’ve just put aside for vocal implant later, one went to 105 and the other one something similar).
I only use Gadget now at 999 bpm.
