Used To Have It All - Fais & Afrojack



Speed: 125 bpm

Recommended bpm range: 120 to 125 bpm, 125 to 130 bpm

The DJ's Take: Get Justin Bieber or Rihanna for the vocals and this one's a mainstream hit. Worth a spin in a swanky lounge with a dress code. If you're staying key-compatible, consider mixing or mashing up with tracks like:

Haters - Deorro & Will Sparks ft. iE-z
I'll House You (VIP Mix) - Don Diablo ft. Jungle Brothers
Virus (How About Now) - Martin Garrix ft. MOTi

Wildest Dreams (R3hab Remix) - Taylor Swift
Disarm You - Kaskade

Time of Our Lives - Pitbull and NeYo
Fireball - Pitbull, Open Wide - Calvin Harris
Flashlight - R3hab & Deorro
#SELFIE - The Chainsmokers
Cannonball (Earthquake) - Showtek & Justin Prime ft. Matthew Koma

Tracklist (start times in parentheses): 1. Crazy - Gnarls Barkley 2. Running Up That Hill - Kate Bush (2:35) 3. Rock Steady - The Whispers (4:34) 4. Because of You - Ne-Yo (6:56) 5.

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
