Perro Fiel - Shakira ft. Nicky Jam



tempo: 92 bpm

bpm range: 90 to 95 bpm

the dj's take: Kind of a strange song and video. First off, that opening image of the violinists is a little cringey - might've worked better in the video for this song. And according to spanishdict.com, 'perro fiel' means faithful dog. So if they ever come out with an English version, the title and lyrics may need a little adjustment.

Bigger picture, this is worth a spin on a Latin night. Strong buzz, big names, and a bounce that delivers the goods.

Couple of key-compatible tracks in the 90 to 95 bpm range:

Ruff Ryders' Anthem - DMX
Controlla - Drake
Magnets - Disclosure ft. Lorde
Locked Away - R. City ft. Adam Levine

And from 96-97:

Post To Be - Omarion ft. Chris Brown & Jhené Aiko
F**kin' Problems - A$AP Rocky

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 .
