Freaky Friday - Lil Dicky ft. Chris Brown





tempo: 100 bpm

bpm range: 95 to 100 bpm100 to 105 bpm

the dj's take: First thing's first - doesn't this basically jack the beat from Ty Dolla $ign's Saved? Has to be the same producer. Come on; try a little harder. On the positive side, that's an easy mix / mashup right there.

So is Freaky Friday worth a spin on a pop night? I'd give it a go, although the video adds some context if you're a VJ.

Some key-compatible tracks from 95 to 99 bpm:

Closer - The Chainsmokers
Don't - Ed Sheeran
Mayores - Becky G ft. Bad Bunny
Only You - 112 ft. Notorious BIG, Mase
Selfish - Future, Rihanna
Beware - Big Sean
Up Down - T-Pain
Beat It - Sean Kingston

And from 100 to 105 bpm:

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 .

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
