Beat Match City

Speed: 93 bpm Recommended bpm range: 90 to 95 bpm The DJ's Take: Ladies & gentlemen, looks like we've got our next megahit. About as smooth, soothing, and beautiful as it gets in the pop genre, and The Weeknd sounds like peak Michael Jackson. My bold prediction: people will groove, fall in love, and make babies to this. Best of all, a lot of mix and mashup possibilities including:

Speed: 78 bpm Recommended bpm range:  75 bpm to 80 bpm The DJ's Take: I knew I recognized the name Party Monster from somewhere ... Would also make a great title for a future biography of a troubled Hollywood star. Like 'Party Monster: The Robert Downey, Jr. Story.'

tempo: 126 bpm bpm range:  125  to  130 bpm the DJ’s take:  When automated software finally gets the hang of making pop songs, I imagine it'll sound a lot like this.

Speed: 80 bpm Recommended bpm range:  75 bpm to 80 bpm , 80 bpm to 85 bpm The DJ's Take: Has a Major Lazer / Diplo feel to it. Energetic buildup and a satisfying drop - what more could you ask for? Give it a go this weekend, then try integrating into a mix including key-compatible tracks like these:

Speed: 93 bpm Recommended bpm range: 90 to 95 bpm The DJ's Take: Never thought I'd cover another new single from this group. Glad to be wrong. Definitely feels like a Tribe track; guttural guitar riff, thumping, head-nodding percussion, and the unmistakable presence of QTip and Phife Dawg. Worth a spin on a hiphop night or at an anti-Trump rally. If you're staying key-compatible, consider mixing or mashing up with:
