mmm i dunno. i just usually think that tracks are done for some tempo 
for some reason. and i like to keep the tracks as they were intended to 
be. of course you need to always pitch up/down while playing but +16 is 
way overkill. if playin house i try to keep in between -2 - +4, with 
techno i can go up'n'down more but for example at +8 the bass goes 
awful. kinda weak. and think about vocals of house-tracks at +16. 
usually ruins the track totally.. kills the vibe totally because they 
start sounding like how gabber-heads used vocals - pitched too up.
