Beat Match City

tempo: 104 bpm bpm range:   100  to  105 bpm the dj's take: Considering all the guys from One Direction are going solo, it's hard to imagine this didn't make it onto any of their debut albums. Regardless, the momentum is growing among pop listeners, which makes it worth a spot in the weekend rotation. Has a tropical bounce that should get hips swaying in almost any setting, especially as the weather warms up. Try mixing or mashing up with: LoveGame - Lady Gaga Something Just Like This - The Chainsmokers & Coldplay Paris - The Chainsmokers Kids - OneRepublic I'm In Control - AlunaGeorge Perfect (Matoma Remix) - One Direction Cheyenne - Jason Derulo Shots - Imagine Dragons Classic - The Knocks Midnight City - M83 Alejandro - Lady Gaga download or stream the song: amazon spotify playlist itunes

Speed: 118 bpm Recommended bpm range: 115 to 120 bpm The DJ's Take: If they ever do a reboot of the 80s sitcom Perfect Strangers , I nominate this as the new theme song. That said, this is doing well on Spotify, and has that bouncy, tropical sound the kids seem to be into these days. Worth a spot in a summer pop playlist. If you're around 115 bpm, try mixing with key-compatible tracks like Never Gonna Give You Up - Rick Astley , LIKE I WOULD - ZAYN , and Let's Dance - David Bowie . If you're closer to 120 bpm, try blending with Kill Em With Kindness - Selena Gomez , Sugar - Maroon 5 , and Love Somebody - Maroon 5 . Download or stream the song: Spotify Amazon

Speed: 114 bpm Recommended bpm range: 110 to 115 bpm , 115 to 120 bpm The DJ's Take: A breezy re-interpretation of the Tracy Chapman hit - I kinda like it. Worth a spin during an electro-oriented set, although this is getting some love on the Spotify charts, so maybe it'll work as a change of pace on a pop night. Try mixing or making a mashup with tracks like:
