Beat Match City

tempo: 70 bpm bpm range:   65 bpm  to  70 bpm ,  70 bpm  to  75 bpm the dj's take: Perfect song for an adDJ - ~100 seconds that will boom through the speakers and rile up the crowd before you move on to the next banger. If you spin hiphop, this one needs to be in the rotation for the foreseeable future. Keep in mind this morphs into a second song at around 1:50 with a bpm of 65 bpm. And in case you were wondering why actor Don Cheadle is in the video: Interesting tracks to mix with at 65 to 70 bpm (scroll down in the box below): goosebumps - Travis Scott Make Love - Gucci Mane ft.

tempo: 127 bpm bpm range:   125  to  130 bpm the DJ’s take:  One of the most explosive hooks in pop EDM history. Best employed at a wedding or other setting where no one cares if they look cool or not. Some other key-compatible tracks worth mixing with: Now You See It - Honorebel ft. Pitbull and Jump Smokers True Colors - Zedd & Ke$ha Bailar - Deorro ft. Elvis Crespo Liberate - Eric Prydz Faith - Calvin Harris Book of Love - Felix Jaehn Let Me Love You - Ne-Yo California Gurls - Katy Perry download or stream the song: spotify playlist apple music itunes

tempo: 95 bpm bpm range:   90  to  95 bpm ,  95  to  100 bpm the dj's take: Easy listening that should work at a casual house party. Could also be decent background music at an event or a laidback bar gig. Solid list of key-compatible tracks to mix with: From 95 to 100 bpm (scroll down in the box below): Let Me Love You - Mario Alone - Alan Walker Lean On - Major Lazer and DJ Snake DOPE - T.I. Write On Me - Fifth Harmony Running Out - Matoma ft. Astrid S Boom - Major Lazer Lush Life - Zara Larsson Dance Like We're Making Love - Ciara Left, Right - YG Waves - Kanye West From 90 to 95 bpm: Magnificent - Rick Ross WILD - Troye Sivan My House - Flo Rida Classic Man - Jidenna download or stream the song: spotify playlist (90 to 95 bpm) spotify playlist (95 to 100 bpm) apple music itunes

tempo: 122 bpm bpm range:   120  to  125 bpm the dj's take:  Spicy and Spanish - good theme music for a modern telenovela or a car commercial. If you're staying key-compatible and don't mind mixing genres, spin this with  Somebody's Watching Me - Rockwell . Bump up a couple bpm's and this could sound interesting with  Stereo Love - Edward Maya and Vika Jigulina . download or stream the song: apple music itunes

tempo: 96 bpm bpm range:   95  to  100 bpm the DJ's take: Sounds a lot like the recent singles from Sia and Maroon 5. No idea how this'll go over in the longer-term, especially with fans who prefer his softer ballads. But if you're looking for some bouncy, danceable new music to drop, Shape Of You should fit the bill pretty well.

Selena Gomez Touch - Nick Jonas I'm Up - Omarion Love Me Harder - Ariana Grande ft.

tempo: 110 bpm bpm range:   105  to  110 bpm ,  110  to  115 bpm the DJ's take: Never would've guessed this was Calvin Harris. The vibe feels like a more tropical, 80s version of Spill The Wine . Best employed at a laid-back pool party, but I'm not against testing it out on a pop night. Then maybe set the stage for the following set of songs: Want to Want Me - Jason Derulo Hands To Myself - Selena Gomez Cool For The Summer - Demi Lovato Fun - Pitbull ft. Chris Brown Treasure - Bruno Mars In My Head - Jason Derulo Because Of You - NeYo The Hills - The Weeknd download or stream the song: spotify playlist apple music itunes

tempo: 75 bpm bpm range:   70 bpm  to  75 bpm ,  75 bpm  to  80 bpm the DJ's Take: A straight smash - club-friendly beat with a notable & distinctive vocalist that will get heads nodding on a hiphop or pop night. On a side note, Kyrie Irving probably thinks the footage of Kendrick riding his bike in the video is ridiculous . And an interesting background piece from this NPR interview : apparently Mike WiLL Made-It intended the beat for Gucci Mane when he got out of jail. Didn't happen, Lamar heard it, and the rest is history. If you're staying key-compatible, try mixing or mashing up with: 2U - David Guetta, Justin Bieber Cry Me a River - Justin Timberlake Believer - Major Lazer, Showtek Everyday - A$AP Rocky ft. Rod Stewart She Knows - NeYo Whatcha Say - Jason Derulo Ridin' - Chamillionaire No Matter What - T.I. Bump up a couple bpm's and this could work with Kanye's Devil In A New Dress . download or stream the song: Spotify

tempo: 74 bpm bpm range:   70 bpm  to  75 bpm the dj's take: Nice song for a picnic. Maybe they can enlist Lance Armstrong for the video. Anyway, I'd add in some percussion somehow, spin it earlier on in a pop set, and see how it goes. Try mixing with: Light My Body Up - David Guetta ft. Nicki Minaj, Lil Wayne Changed It - Nicki Minaj, Lil Wayne Heavy - Linkin Park ft. Kiiara Six Feet Under - The Weeknd Sidewalks - The Weeknd Tell Your Friends - The Weeknd Pop That - French Montana Spaceships - Area21 Blast Ya - Borgore ft.

tempo: 128 bpm bpm range:   125  to  130 bpm the dj's take: If this song ever got big, we'd probably see people posting photoshopped images of themselves in wacky modes of transportation. I'd go with the big white furry guy from Never Ending Story .

Afrojack Sweet Harmony - Dubvision DADDY - PSY Another You - Armin Van Buuren ft. Mr. Probz Cool - Alesso Get Outta My Way - Kylie Minogue Waiting For Love - Avicii La La La - Naughty Boy ft.

tempo: 91 bpm bpm range:   90  to  95 bpm the dj's take: More of a low-key pop track to be played in a casual bar setting. Keep in mind that the percussion doesn't really kick in until about 1:10 in.

tempo: 66-67 bpm bpm range:   65 bpm  to  70 bpm the dj's take: I knew I'd heard that hook somewhere . Not sure if this is something to play at a gig, but worth a spot on a hiphop mixtape. Nice set of songs in the same / similar key: T-Shirt - Migos Real Chill - Rae Sremmurd ft. Kodak Black ??? (Where) - Ty Dolla $ign 1st Day Out Da Feds - Gucci Mane Bake Sale - Wiz Khalifa ft. Travis Scott Kiss Kiss - Chris Brown ft. T-Pain TKO - Justin Timberlake download or stream the song: spotify playlist apple music itunes

tempo: 81 bpm bpm range:   80 bpm  to  85 bpm the dj's take: If I owned a department store where my goal was to have no one buy anything, this would be droning on the speakers. Kind of drags, but may be worth messing around with on a radio show or recorded mix. Try pairing with key-compatible tracks like: Used To This - Future & Drake Bye Bye Bye - NSYNC Oh Boy - Cam'Ron Throw Some D's - Rich Boy download or stream the song: apple music itunes

tempo: 104 bpm bpm range:   100  to  105 bpm the dj's take:  Sounds like a party to me. Good chance you can get hips moving with this one; worth a spin if you feel like delving into Latin pop.
