Beat Match City

tempo: 66-67 bpm bpm range:   65 bpm  to  70 bpm the dj's take: I knew I'd heard that hook somewhere . Not sure if this is something to play at a gig, but worth a spot on a hiphop mixtape. Nice set of songs in the same / similar key: T-Shirt - Migos Real Chill - Rae Sremmurd ft. Kodak Black ??? (Where) - Ty Dolla $ign 1st Day Out Da Feds - Gucci Mane Bake Sale - Wiz Khalifa ft. Travis Scott Kiss Kiss - Chris Brown ft. T-Pain TKO - Justin Timberlake download or stream the song: spotify playlist apple music itunes

Speed: 60 bpm Recommended bpm range: 55 bpm to 60 bpm , 60 bpm to 65 bpm The DJ's Take: This feels like a bit of a throwback to 10-15 years ago, when we saw more end-of-the-night R&B on the charts. Personally, I'd consider winding an evening down with this, then maybe throw on Candyman's Knockin' Boots as a bonus right afterward ( click here for the iTunes download). If you're looking to do a key-compatible mashup, I'd go with Bad Intentions - Niykee Heaton ft. Migos , waves - Miguel ft. Travis Scott , and White Walls - Macklemore & Ryan Lewis (or drop down to 56-57 bpm and get into Say It - Tory Lanez ). If you've still got time to fill and the energy needs to go back up, try half-timing into tracks like Under Pressure - Queen & David Bowie , Ice Ice Baby - Vanilla Ice , and Wasted - Tiesto .

Speed: 59.5 bpm Recommended bpm range: 55 bpm to 60 bpm , 60 bpm to 65 bpm The DJ's Take: Well whaddaya know - Kevin Gates two days in a row. There's something about the bell and organ combo that adds a little power and gravity to the beat. Like 2 Phones , this is getting some love on the pop charts, so it may be worth a spin on a hiphop night. If you're staying key-compatible, try mixing or mashing up with Whole Lotta Lovin - DJ Mustard ft. Travis Scott . Or you can half-time into faster tracks like: Hold Up, Wait A Minute - ZHU Cake By The Ocean - DNCE How Deep is Your Love - Calvin Harris + Disciples Talking Body - Tove Lo She Came To Give It To You - Usher Blurred Lines - Robin Thicke Take Your Time (Do It Right) by The S.O.S. Band Ghost Town - Adam Lambert Call Me Maybe - Carly Rae Jepsen Download the song: iTunes Amazon

Speed: 61 bpm Recommended bpm range: 55 bpm to 60 bpm , 60 bpm to 65 bpm The DJ's Take: Safe to say this is a safer play on a hiphop night in an urban environment. And yet this song's making a move up the pop charts, so maybe there's some untapped potential with a broader audience. Try mixing or making mashups with tracks like:
