At My Best - Machine Gun Kelly ft. Hailee Steinfeld



tempo: 85 bpm

bpm range: 80 bpm to 85 bpm, 85 bpm to 90 bpm

the DJ's take: Kind of feels like Love The Way You Lie. Probably won't catch fire the same way, but I'd give it a go during the new music portion of a pop set. Try mixing with key- and tempo-compatible tracks like:

In the 80 to 85 bpm range:

Bounce - 2 Chainz ft. Lil Wayne
Gotta Lotta - 2 Chainz ft. Lil Wayne
See You Again - Wiz Khalifa ft. Charlie Puth
The Heart Wants What It Wants - Selena Gomez
Party - Beyoncé
Come & Get It - Selena Gomez

From 85 to 90 bpm:

Started From The Bottom - Drake
Love The Way You Lie - Eminem ft. Rihanna

dj mix/mashup: do you think of me [mariah carey] x always forever [bryson tiller]

Links: Made with Logic Pro at 72 bpm Fun little instrumental blend of Bryson Tiller's Always Forever , which we used in mix 66 , and Mariah Carey's Do You Think of Me , which ended up on the cutting room floor. As you can see up top, I broke out the scalpel and did some slicing to make the beats match up better. Final verdict: Worth it. Follow the playlist on djcheatsheet.com

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 .
