Deuces - Chris Brown ft. Tyga and Kevin McCall



tempo: 74 bpm

bpm range: 70 bpm to 75 bpm

The DJ’s Take: Song #3 in Episode 41 (2:58):



Can't lie; I am a big fan of that hook. Fun to shout out, and it works perfectly fine as a way to say goodbye to your friends or as an exclamation point at the end of a breakup. Also - during the transition out of Drunk In Love, listen to how those repeating notes bounce right in time with Beyoncé's drawn-out 'lo-o-o-ve' at around 3:20. Fits like a hand in glove.

Try mixing with:

Drunk In Love - Beyoncé ft. Jay-Z
Ni**as in Paris - JAY-Z & Kanye West
Curve - Gucci Mane ft. The Weeknd
Grammys - Drake, Future
Watch Me (Whip / Nae Nae) - Silento
iSay - Wiz Khalifa ft. Juicy J
Light Years - Yellow Claw
Malibu - Miley Cyrus

DJ mix/mashup: no can do because of you (ft. Hall & Oates and Ne-Yo)

Made with Logic Pro at 113 bpm A quick clip from the last mix , and one of my favorite transitions in it. Kind of alluring, mysterious; maybe we can make a more fully realized remix/mashup someday. If you're wondering what the image is in the background at the start of the video, those are quahogs and a channeled whelk I dug out of the sand in low tide on a recent beach trip. Pretty solid haul, and good eating for sure. Although I probably should've kept them separate - apparently whelks like to eat the clams .

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
