Virus (How About Now) - Martin Garrix & MOTi



Speed: 128 bpm

Recommended bpm range: 125 to 130 bpm

The DJ's Take: So this has been out for about a year, but today is the first time I've heard it. Probably not something you should break out in a casual bar on a Top 40 night, but I could picture spinning it in a big club on an EDM night or at a festival. Try mixing with some or all of the following:

Now That I've Found You - Martin Garrix, Haters - Deorro & Will Sparks ft. iE-z, I'll House You (VIP Mix) - Don Diablo ft. Jungle Brothers, 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, Fireball - Pitbull, Open Wide - Calvin Harris, Flashlight - R3hab & Deorro, #SELFIE - The Chainsmokers, Cannonball (Earthquake) - Showtek & Justin Prime ft. Matthew Koma, I Love It - Icona Pop, Animals - Martin Garrix, Under Control - Calvin Harris & Alesso, Stay The Night - Zedd, Clarity - Zedd, This Is What It Feels Like - Armin Van Buuren, Turn Up The Music - Chris Brown, Wild Ones - Flo Rida ft. Sia, Beautiful People - Chris Brown, Party Rock Anthem - LMFAO, Firework - Katy Perry, I Like It - Enrique Iglesias

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.

SICKO MODE - Travis Scott ft. Drake

tempo: 69 bpm, 77-78 bpm bpm range: 65 bpm to 70 bpm , 75 bpm  to  80 bpm the dj's take: The leadoff song in our Entry 23 mix: This one is like the Neopolitan ice cream of music - three flavors in one. Makes sense for the younger listeners and their shorter attention spans. And as a producer / songwriter, you can take three half-finished attempts at a single, then mash them together to make a hit. Some key-compatible tracks to mix with Part I (up to ~0:59): Better Now - Post Malone Rap God - Eminem HYFR - Drake ft. Lil Wayne Pills & Automobiles - Chris Brown Glorious - Macklemore, Skylar Grey We Did It - AREA21 Another Life - Afrojack, David Guetta Both - Gucci Mane ft.
