Faking It - Calvin Harris ft. Kehlani, Lil Yachty



tempo: 60 bpm, 120 bpm

bpm range: 55 bpm to 60 bpm, 60 bpm to 65 bpm, 115 to 120 bpm, 120 to 125 bpm

the dj's take: I think this should play in every stadium when an opposing player blatantly fakes an injury. Like this:


Or this:


Also good for a spinning class or the treadmill. Slow part for the warmup / cool-down, faster part when it's time to burn rubber.

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

dj mix/mashup: gold [kiiara] x genie in a bottle [christina aguilera]

Made with Logic Pro at 87 bpm Not exactly how the transition went in mix #77 ; had to edit the Genie in a Bottle intro a little to cut out Christina Aguilera's vocals and make it more loop-able. A nice pairing - Gold has vocals and minimal percussion, and fits nicely over the Genie in a Bottle instrumental. Another good candidate for a full-on mashup or remix for someone who wants to dig in a little more. Key- and bpm-compatible playlist
