N.Y. State of Mind - Nas



tempo: 84-85 bpm

bpm range: 80 bpm to 85 bpm, 85 bpm to 90 bpm

the dj's take: Leadoff song in mix #33:



Want to hear something happy and uplifting? Look elsewhere. But if you appreciate classic hiphop, N.Y. State of Mind is required listening. Gritty, hypnotic beat that makes you feel like you're on a subway train to nowhere.

Couldn't quite find a place for it in 33XL (using Logic Pro X makes me pickier), but a throwback dj should find a place for it in his/her rotation.

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
