Imma Be - Black Eyed Peas

tempo: 92 bpm, switches to 123 bpm halfway through bpm range: 90 to 95 bpm , 120 to 125 bpm the DJ’s take:  A unique track that changes tempo halfway through - saves a dj the effort of having to come up with an energy-accelerating transition (similar deal with Just Can't Get Enough ). Decent throwback that should work during one of your quieter Top 40 nights. Some tracks worth mixing with: From 90 to 95 bpm (scroll down in the box below): Creep - TLC I Feel It Coming - The Weeknd, Daft Punk Water Under The Bridge - Adele ...Baby One More Time - Britney Spears Capsize - FRENSHIP & Emily Warren Mellow Drama - Sterling Mercury Why You Always Hatin? - YG ft. Drake, Kamaiyah Impatient - Jeremih ft. Ty Dolla $ign Kevin - Macklemore & Ryan Lewis Express Yourself - N.W.A. Sexy Love - Ne-Yo Used To Love You - Gwen Stefani The Fix - Nelly ft.

On The Floor - Jennifer Lopez ft. Pitbull

tempo: 130 bpm bpm range:   125  to  130 bpm ,  130  to  135 bpm The DJ's Take:  J. Lo and Pitbull - a partnership that brought us one of the great in-concert images of the 2010s : Hey; he's only human. As for the track, a loud, thumping mega-hit when it came out. Still has value as a throwback on a dance-oriented, unpretentious Top 40 night. Try mixing / mashing up with: The Right Song - Tiesto & Oliver Heldens A Sky Full Of Stars - Coldplay You Make Me - Avicii Calabria - Enur When Love Takes Over - David Guetta, Kelly Rowland We Found Love - Calvin Harris ft. Rihanna Oops - Martin Garrix The Right Song - Tiesto & Oliver Heldens A Sky Full Of Stars - Coldplay You Make Me - Avicii Give It 2 U - Robin Thicke Live For The Night - Krewella Don't Stop The Party - Pitbull Right Now - Rihanna and David Guetta S&M - Rihanna Low (feat.

SICKO MODE - Travis Scott ft. Drake

tempo: 69 bpm, 77-78 bpm bpm range: 65 bpm to 70 bpm , 75 bpm  to  80 bpm the dj's take: The leadoff song in our Entry 23 mix: This one is like the Neopolitan ice cream of music - three flavors in one. Makes sense for the younger listeners and their shorter attention spans. And as a producer / songwriter, you can take three half-finished attempts at a single, then mash them together to make a hit. Some key-compatible tracks to mix with Part I (up to ~0:59): Better Now - Post Malone Rap God - Eminem HYFR - Drake ft. Lil Wayne Pills & Automobiles - Chris Brown Glorious - Macklemore, Skylar Grey We Did It - AREA21 Another Life - Afrojack, David Guetta Both - Gucci Mane ft. Drake Pick Up The Phone - Young Thug, Travis Scott GDFR - Flo Rida Inside Out - The Chainsmokers Private Show - TI ft.
