What You Want - Mase ft. Total



tempo: 94 bpm

bpm range: 90 to 95 bpm

the dj's take: Song #5 in eight is not enough (10:40):



Kind of tricky to mix with the scratches and percussion; had to move it around a little to find the right spot. Worth a spin on a 90s hiphop night.

Random Mase memorabilia discovery on Amazon:



Tried to dig up some video of the pitch, but couldn't find any. Hopefully it turned out better than 50 Cent:



As for the track, try mixing with:

Player's Ball - OutKast
Nice For What - Drake
In My Feelings - Drake
Microphone Fiend - Eric B. & Rakim
Love Me Like You Do - Ellie Goulding
Hurt You - The Weeknd

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 .
