It Takes Two - Rob Base and DJ E-Z Rock



tempo: 112 bpm

bpm range: 110 to 115 bpm

the DJ’s take: Hate to break it to you, but if you can’t get down to this, you probably can't get down to anything. Classic Lyn Collins sample and tight rhymes are timeless. This is what rap was, and what it should be. It Takes Two deserves a permanent place in your house party playlist.

Don't worry about key-compatibility here. Should go well with just about anything in a similar bpm (see above).

Lucky You - Eminem ft. Joyner Lucas

tempo: 76-77 bpm bpm range: 75 bpm  to  80 bpm the dj's take: I was wondering why the phrase 'Lucky You' sounded familiar... then remembered my Lucky Brand jeans say this behind the zipper: So let's say you're on a date. Things are going well, relations commence, and your companion sees that message. Cute? Or a mood killer? Either way, that's a lot of bravado to live up to. Brings to mind Brick Tamland in Anchorman: As for the track, try mixing with: Bam - Jay-Z ft. Damian Marley PIE - Future ft. Chris Brown Stitches - Shawn Mendes download or stream Lucky You: amazon itunes

dj mix/mashup: Sweet Dreams, Middle Child (ft. J. Cole, Christopher Cross, The O'Jays, Eurythmics, and Giorgio Moroder)

Made with Logic Pro at 125 bpm Simple recipe for this one - take loops from the songs in chase and backstab like the wind and mix them over J. Cole's Middle Child. Just between you and me, I think I might like this one a little better. More of a contemporary feel. Try messing playing around with the Dj Cheat Sheet playlist I used and see what you can come up with.
