DJ mix/mashup: Watch Your Bad Habits (ft. Rihanna, Ed Sheeran, Disclosure, and more)

Made with Logic Pro at 121 bpm Took me awhile; I probably went through about 15 different songs off this DJ Cheat Sheet playlist , and settled on something simple. Percussion throughout is from the opening to Disclosure's Watch Your Step . The Rihanna vocals come from the very end of Disturbia where the drums peel off, then we threw in a little sample from the beginning of Jax Jones' You Don't Know Me to break up the monotony. Second half felt better - the beginning of Ed Sheeran's Bad Habits before the drums drop in was a nice loop, and then we threw in the beginning guitar riff from Swedish House Mafia's Don't You Worry Child to thicken it up a bit. On a side note, I thought the opening part of Tame Impala's The Moment over the aforementioned Rihanna vocal from Disturbia could've been interesting, but I couldn't find a spot to fit it in for this session. Maybe some other time.
