Five More Hours - Deorro x Chris Brown



tempo: 128 bpm

bpm range: 125 to 130 bpm

The DJ's Take: Track #4 in mix #37 (5:48):



So I'm no expert, but if you go about 2:40 into that video, we see why his car broke down - he must've pumped the wrong gas into it. Blue, purple or pink smoke coming out is the telltale sign. If he'd put the proper fuel in, we'd be seeing orange or brilliant hues of neon green. Mystery solved.

On a side note, that louder transition / buildup from Red Lights would be my Electric Daisy Carnival moment. I can see it now - light show flashing in back of me as I pump my fist in the air, pretending I'm turning knobs on the controller, and then pyrotechnics going off as the first note hits. Then I jump into the crowd of about 30 and do some surfing:


A boy can dream...

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
