Beat Match City

Speed: 111 bpm The DJ's Take: This one definitely has a 60s feel to it. A bit drab, but different from the norm, so there's some potential there (especially if young females take to Olly Murs like they did One Direction). Probably best played at hipster functions for now. Download the song:

Speed: 96 bpm The DJ’s Take: Simple and unassuming, head-nodding percussion, and solid rapping. It’s like someone finally decided to take mainstream listeners seriously, and it works. I’ll be disappointed if this doesn’t become at least a minor hit. More importantly, with the key and general bpm, you can add this as another element in my go-to mix that I often use within the first hour or two of a set (see below).
