Fireball - Pitbull ft. John Ryan



Speed: 123 bpm

Recommended bpm range: 120 to 125 bpm, 125 to 130 bpm

The DJ's Take: Wouldn't this be the perfect theme song for a Fireball Whisky tv ad? On a side note, interesting how popular that beverage has become - just goes to show how you can take something strong, flavor it like candy, and your consumers will explode across genders and demographics. Anyway, regarding the song, I'll give this a 40/60 chance of becoming a moderate hit. Regardless, it's new Pitbull, so worth a spin.

If you're mixing around 120 bpm and want to stay key-compatible, try blending with tracks like Waves - Mr. ProbzLatch - DisclosureTelephoneSay It RightSonnentanz and/or Marilyn Monroe - Pharrell.

If you're mixing in the 125 to 130 bpm range, try blending with tracks like Now That I've Found You - Martin Garrix, I'll House You (VIP Mix) - Don Diablo ft. Jungle Brothers, Virus (How About Now) - Martin Garrix ft. MOTi, Strong - R3HAB and KSHMR, What Do You Mean? - Justin Bieber, Wildest Dreams (R3hab Remix) - Taylor Swift, Disarm You - Kaskade, One Last Time - Ariana Grande, Time of Our Lives - Pitbull and NeYo, Open Wide - Calvin HarrisFlashlight - R3hab & Deorro#SELFIE - The ChainsmokersCannonball (Earthquake) - Showtek & Justin Prime ft.

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

Throwback Thursday: Billie Jean - Michael Jackson

Tempo: 117 bpm Bpm range: 115 to 120 bpm The DJ’s Take:  An iconic pop track that any dj should have in their rotation. No excuses. A good list of key-compatible songs to mix or mash up with, including: Solo Dance - Martin Jensen Routine - Alan Walker x David Whistle Safe And Sound - Justice D.A.N.C.E. - Justice Say My Name - ODESZA ft. 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.

Uptown Funk - Mark Ronson ft. Bruno Mars

tempo: 115 bpm bpm range:   115  to  120 bpm the DJ's take: Mix or mash up with James Brown's Living In America , and you'll have done about the best thing you can with this track. A banner track for the 2010s. Seriously overplayed everywhere in the past couple years, so let it breathe a little and pick your spots. Solid roster of key-compatible hits to mix / mash up with: Between 110 and 115 bpm: Like A Prayer - Madonna Shining - DJ Khaled, Jay-Z, Beyoncé Get Ugly - Jason Derulo Grenade - Bruno Mars From 115 to 120 bpm: 1999 - Prince Tik Tok - Ke$ha Ain't Nobody (Loves Me Better) - Felix Jaehn ft.
