DJ mix/mashup: You Know You Like Roses (DJ Snake, Saint JHn, DMX, Eminem)

Made with Logic Pro at 105 bpm If I keep doing these, hopefully they all come together as quickly and easily as this one. Started off with the vocal-only intro for DJ Snake and AlunaGeorge over a little section of Roses with minimal vocals, and made that the central theme. Then I took a couple parts from the intro to Intro by DMX. Fun fact: found this one on youtube when an article (or the algorithm) brought me to the walkout for a post-prison Mike Tyson fight. Tell me those bells aren't the ultimate death knell: And then we switched up the mood a bit with The Real Slim Shady and its dark, bouncy looniness. Probably the biggest hit of the four pieces we used, and good background sound for a mental institution or a Halloween party. Amazon downloads below, and don't forget the key- and bpm-compatible DJ Cheat Sheet playlist if you want to make your own version. Plus - a full mix stretched out to 19 minutes featuring this music and more. You Know You Like It - DJ Snake...

Throwback Thursday: X Gon' Give it to Ya - DMX

Speed: 95 bpm Recommended bpm range: 90 to 95 bpm The DJ's Take: One cool thing about Deadpool coming out - now we can blow the dust off one of my least favorite tracks from the early 00s. Of course, it's also go-to background music for generic action movie trailers. Guaranteed to drive up the testosterone in the room by about 36.4%. Try mixing or mashing up with tracks like How Do U Want It - Tupac and Baby - Brandy . As a bonus, Deadpool has also resurrected Salt N Pepa's Shoop, which we covered back in 2010 . If the feeling's right, I'd try mixing that with tracks like Old Thing Back - Matoma and Back To Sleep - Chris Brown . Download the song: iTunes Amazon
