113 BPM Songs: Genres, Playlists and How to Find Them
Last reviewed on 1 October 2026.
Songs at 113 BPM are mostly mid-tempo pop, dance-pop, funk, disco and pop-rock tracks, with one beat every 531 ms. The quickest way to find them is a BPM lookup site or DJ software filtered to about 111–115 BPM, then a quick tap-tempo check by ear. Also search for 56–57 BPM, because many rap and R&B tracks are listed at half their felt tempo.

Why We Don't Publish a "Songs at Exactly 113 BPM" List
Many websites print long lists of famous hits "at 113 BPM", and they often disagree with each other. Song tempos are easy to misreport:
- Half and double time: analysis software can lock onto half (56.5) or double (226) the felt tempo, or report a 113 BPM groove when the song really pulses at 226.
- Live drummers drift: songs recorded without a click track can speed up or slow down by several BPM between intro and final chorus.
- Different versions: radio edits, remasters, live takes and remixes can run at different speeds from the album version.
Rather than repeat unverified numbers, this page shows you which genres sit at 113 BPM and how to check any song's tempo yourself in under a minute.
How to Find Songs at 113 BPM
- Search a BPM database. Song-tempo lookup sites (for example SongBPM, Tunebat or GetSongBPM) let you search by title or browse by tempo. Filter to 111–115 BPM so you don't miss songs listed at 112 or 114.
- Analyse your own library. DJ software such as rekordbox, Serato DJ or Traktor, and key/tempo tools such as Mixed In Key, detect the BPM of every file you import. Sort the BPM column and look around 113.
- Check half and double time. Also look at 55–58 BPM and 222–230 BPM; a track listed there may feel like 113.
- Confirm by ear. Open any tap-tempo tool (many metronome apps have one) and tap along with the kick or snare for 15–20 seconds. If the reading settles near 113, the track belongs on your list.
- Save it. Add confirmed tracks to a dedicated "113 BPM" playlist or crate so you don't have to re-check them later.

113 BPM by Genre
Typical tempo ranges show where you are most likely to find 113 BPM material:
| Genre | Typical tempo range | How 113 BPM fits |
|---|---|---|
| Pop / dance-pop | about 100–130 BPM | Right in the middle; plenty of mid-tempo pop sits here |
| Funk, disco, nu-disco | about 105–125 BPM | A relaxed, groovy four-on-the-floor |
| Rock / pop-rock / indie | about 100–140 BPM | Mid-tempo rock: steady, not driving |
| R&B | about 60–110 BPM | At the upbeat end; slower R&B often reads as half of 113 |
| Rap / hip-hop | about 80–100 BPM (trap often 130–150 or half-time 65–75) | Uncommon at 113; usually uptempo or pop-crossover tracks |
| House | about 118–130 BPM | Slow for house; found in downtempo and "slow house" |
Ranges are approximate guides; individual songs regularly sit outside them.
Rock songs at 113 BPM
Look for mid-tempo rock with a straight eighth-note feel: classic rock, power pop and radio-friendly indie often land between 105 and 120 BPM. Many classic rock records were tracked without a click, so check that the tempo stays near 113 throughout.
Rap songs at 113 BPM
Most rap sits slower, so at 113 BPM you are looking for uptempo, dance or pop-crossover tracks. Also filter at 56–57 BPM: a beat felt in half time can be listed there.
R&B songs at 113 BPM
Upbeat, funk- or disco-influenced R&B is the best hunting ground. Ballads and slow jams will be far below 113, sometimes listed at double their real tempo, so confirm by ear.
Pop songs at 113 BPM
Pop is the richest source. Filter a BPM site to 112–114 and you will typically find mid-tempo singles across every decade, from 1980s synth-pop to current dance-pop.
Building a 113 BPM Playlist
| Use | What to look for | Tip |
|---|---|---|
| Brisk walking | Clear kick or snare on every beat | One step per beat = 113 steps per minute |
| DJ warm-up set | Disco, funk, mid-tempo pop | Build from about 105 toward 120+ BPM over the set |
| Dance practice | Steady tempo, clear 8-count phrases | An 8-count lasts 4.25 seconds at 113 BPM |
| Focus / background | Instrumental or low-vocal tracks | Keep the tempo band narrow (111–115) for a consistent feel |
Running? 113 BPM is a walking cadence. Typical running cadence is around 150–180 steps per minute, so runners usually pick songs in that range or ones that feel double-time.
Streaming services can also generate tempo-based playlists automatically, but check the results: auto-generated lists are prone to the half/double-time errors described above.
Mixing 113 BPM Songs in a DJ Set
- Small jumps (about 110–116 BPM): beat-match with the pitch fader; the change is under 3% and barely noticeable with key lock on.
- Up to 120 BPM: a +6.2% change from 113. Raise the tempo gradually over a few tracks or switch during a break.
- Half time: 113 BPM lines up with 56.5 BPM material on every other beat, which helps when mixing into slow R&B or downtempo tracks.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find songs with a BPM of 113?
Use a BPM lookup site or DJ software to check tempos, filter for about 111 to 115 BPM, then confirm each track by tapping along with a tap-tempo tool. Also check half-time (about 56.5 BPM) and double-time (226 BPM) readings, because analysers sometimes report a song at half or twice its felt tempo.
Why do different websites list different BPMs for the same song?
Automatic analysers can lock onto half or double the felt tempo, songs played by live drummers drift by a few BPM, and remasters, edits and remixes can run at slightly different speeds. Always verify a tempo by ear before relying on it.
Is 113 BPM good for walking or running?
113 BPM suits walking: matching one step per beat gives 113 steps per minute, a brisk walking cadence for many adults. It is slow for running, where cadence is usually around 150 to 180 steps per minute, though some runners use double-time feel songs instead.
Which genres have the most songs around 113 BPM?
Mid-tempo pop, dance-pop, funk, disco and pop-rock produce the most songs near 113 BPM. Rap and R&B songs at this tempo exist but many are slower, so they often show up as about 56 BPM or as 113 BPM in double-time listings.
