Fuck You - CeeLo Green



tempo: 128 bpm

bpm range: 125 to 130 bpm

the DJ’s take: A '50s sound you can spin in a modern pop set - I'm in. Went as high as #2 on the Billboard charts in 2010, and that hook is probably the most popular expression in the English language, which should prompt a singalong more often than not. Worth a spin as a throwback or in a freeform Top 40 set.

Fun wikipedia fact: In an interview, CeeLo says the 'girl' in the song represents the music industry. Sounds like a real firecracker to me.

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
