Forever - Drake ft. Kanye West, Lil Wayne and Eminem



tempo: 79 bpm

the dj's take: Song #5 in episode LIV (10:46):



Used a familiar technique during the transition out of Kanye's Power - cut out the vocal-free intro for a seamless overlap with the marquee tool in Logic Pro X:



Apologies to Marshall Mathers for cutting his verse at the end as we moved into The-Dream's Rockin' That Thang. I'm sure it was good, but the timing felt right. On a side note, if you love hiphop & r&b from 2009-10, we just hit you with a beautiful three-hit combo (you're welcome).

dj mix/mashup: 6 man [drake] x devil in a new dress [kanye west, rick ross]

Made with Logic Pro at 82 bpm Clip from mix #69 - two big beats on top of each other, which I could've done a better job adjusting for a cleaner sound. But if you listen to the actual mix, the transition sounds smooth; my goal for this video was to create a loop that feels like the first draft of a mashup/remix. Worth building on for a future project. Key- and bpm-compatible playlist

Unholy - Sam Smith ft. Kim Petras

tempo: 65-66 bpm the DJ's take: This one makes me think of M.I.A.'s Bad Girls (~72 bpm) with the Far/Middle Eastern chord progression. I haven't tried it yet, but put both of them at ~69 bpm and that could be an interesting mashup possibility. Try mixing with songs in these playlists: 60 to 65 bpm , 65 to 70 , and 70 to 75 f (for songs are in the low 70s). download or stream Unholy: amazon
