Don't - Ed Sheeran



Speed: 95 bpm

 The DJ's Take: Make the beat a little harder, replace Ed Sheeran with 50 Cent, and this could easily fit as a bonus track on Get Rich or Die Tryin'. It also reminds me of No Diggity in certain spots. Kind of interesting to hear the hiphop flavor in there, but I like it. Definite hit potential. I think it'd be fun to mix/mash up with key-compatible tracks like Only You and Player's Ball. One More Night by Maroon 5 would be a nice fit too. Or you could speed up a little and mix into tracks like Gust Of Wind, No Letting Go, Get Busy or Hold Yuh.

Starboy - The Weeknd, Daft Punk

tempo: 93 bpm bpm range: 90 to 95 bpm The DJ's Take: Song #6 in our chapter 53 mix (11:38): As we saw with the I Wonder lead-in, that percussion-only intro makes this easier to mix and to play around with. Also melts nicely into Nine Inch Nails' Closer . In fact, even though I know when the transition's coming, it still creeps up on me a bit. Still worth a spot in your prime-time pop rotation. Some other key-compatible music: Old Thing Back - Matoma & Notorious BIG Back To Sleep - Chris Brown One More Chance (Remix) - Notorious BIG Shoop - Salt N Pepa Out of the Woods - Taylor Swift This Is How We Do - Katy Perry Na Na - Trey Songz Paranoid - Ty Dolla $ign No Games - Serani Download or stream Starboy: spotify playlist amazon

Zyra This Town (Tiesto Remix) - Niall Horan Welcome - Martin Garrix & Julian Jordan Get Lucky - Daft Punk If you're willing to drop a couple bpm's, blending this with Poison - Bell Biv Devoe is pure gold.

Imma Be - Black Eyed Peas

tempo: 92 bpm, switches to 123 bpm halfway through bpm range: 90 to 95 bpm , 120 to 125 bpm the DJ’s take:  A unique track that changes tempo halfway through - saves a dj the effort of having to come up with an energy-accelerating transition (similar deal with Just Can't Get Enough ). Decent throwback that should work during one of your quieter Top 40 nights. Some tracks worth mixing with: From 90 to 95 bpm (scroll down in the box below): Creep - TLC I Feel It Coming - The Weeknd, Daft Punk Water Under The Bridge - Adele ...Baby One More Time - Britney Spears Capsize - FRENSHIP & Emily Warren Mellow Drama - Sterling Mercury Why You Always Hatin? - YG ft.
