Speed: 121 bpm The DJ's Take: Sizzling, pounding synth and strong, assertive vocals - I kind of like it. Not sure whether this is music for the runway or the club, but worth a download. Try mixing with tracks like Sonnentanz (Sun Don't Shine) and Telephone . Which song off Artpop do you like the best?

Speed: 72.5 bpm The DJ's Take: Wow - can't believe I slept on this for so long. Just came back from Vegas, and heard the dj play it over at Surrender . Involuntary head-nodding ensued. The drop of that dribbling, continuous synth reminds me of a lighter Ayo Technology . Listen long enough, and you could make a case for 3 tracks going on in 1 song. Straight stadium music that should go straight into your rotation. Download the song:   Amazon:
